​@@ashutosh6902hiie I hope you were able to solve the problem, seeing it's 5 months ago, can you share?

I love how honest you are. Unlike many other youtubers who will tell newbies to just join freelance platforms and they'll get clients instantly. What I'll add on is that, whoever thinks freelancing is easy sorry because you'll encounter some really bad clients. Another thing, make sure you deliver as per your promises. Some clients know how to do the job they're offering only that they're busy with some other stuff. continue learning.

Exactly, most talk about how easy it is to get more views, but the truth is that, especially when you are taking the first steps, it is very difficult. Since I started looking for clients, I only got my first client 3 months later. Having stability at the beginning is also very difficult. I've already taken a very complete sales course specifically for designers that helped me a lot, but it's still difficult and laborious

Finding freelance clients today IS NOT EASY for most newbies especially if they are selling services like writing, virtual assistance or social media marketing etc. For every one client there would be hundreds of sellers pitching their services. Its a dog eat dog thing and people are selling services for as cheap as 5 dollars. Some of them even are ready to work for weeks for free just to get some work. I wont be surprised to see the so called "freelancers" go back to a full-time 9-5 thing thanks to the toxic and undervalued system freelancing has become thanks to people who really dont understand their self-worth.

My plan is (as u suggested) to contact them and show my solutions and se what happens and also use it in my portfolio. Hugs Josefine

Thank you!
