This course is a video version of my e-book 15 Years of Freelancing: My Lessons & Advice: for those of you who prefer to listen/watch than read.
In this 2-hour course, I'm telling my own story as a freelancer, giving 20+ tips in separate videos and answering the most popular questions I see online about freelancing for a web-developer.
Topics include:
- How to get clients?
- How to get paid on time?
- How to manage your time?
- How to motivate yourself throughout the project?
- What if the project goes wrong?
- etc.
So, are you with me on this freelancer journey? See you inside the course!
