Thank you for this video! Just finished my coding BootCamp and being interested in Freelancing I found all your advice very helpful!

Just subbed! So glad you put out this video. I’ve been talking about this A LOT. Looking forward to watch the rest of your content

Thank you for the video and ideas. I am a software developer with 20 years of experience. I have been freelancing for about five years. I never got the hang of networking, as my few clients have been through word of mouth. But I would like to find some online communities to diversify my work. I would be interested in a video on online communities for freelancers.

Hi, just started as a freelancer developer in Miami, and I think I just passed the stage where I got lost between "going out and getting clients" and "finding the time to actually code their projects". I guess the key here is to find help when needed. Don't be afraid to ask a fellow developer for a hand when things are too much, especially because it's hard to predict the workload when you're just starting.

thanks community part is really important, first we build a free community then we launch a course at later point after having enough members

I don't know. Freelancing is lonely. I am an old-school employee. I enjoy lunch time, coffee machine, gossiping and talk s**t about my boss with my colleagues.

What a cool intro. The bit about building the community is what I have not done so no wonder why I am struggling with getting clients. Have you ever thought to be somebody's mentor in their software development journey?

I'm 44, and never worked in the Tech industry, actually, my background is in sales & customer service, but do I still have time to study IT and start a new career? I don't know how to get started...

Getting to the minimum viable product skill set is the difficulty. Particularly if you take all the on-line courses people recommend, crossing over to a community without traditional university type environment is, or has been challenging for me. Good luck man!

For transparency, how much you earn (percentage) from freelancing and from social media

Hi @TiffInTech, I'm kind of in a dilemma, I've been working in a tech company for 6 years now and there's a person I know who has offered me a project where I would be the sole back-end dev, and it sounds like an amazing opportunity to learn more but Im scared I won't be able to deliver since I will be doing everything myself which I'm not used to. Though I have, in the past, always been anxious about starting projects and work in different technologies in my company after a few months I've always been able to get the hang of things and do well. I guess my question is do you think I should take up the project? For now I think it would be a one time thing and I'm not really getting into freelance full-time as of now.

Your info is great And with the devolopment of Ai I believe A person can really Become an Independant software enginner with own choice right

Tiff, your videos are very helpful, I have finished my MSC in Computer Science, I have a few ideas for projects including a very good opportunity to make an app for the company I am working for. But I have ideas to build software, and I would like to write my own Software and my own product company, I know I probably should get some experience working for others first, but I have some good ideas & if I don't someone else will, Is it okay to just dive straight in ?

@TiffInTech

Жыл бұрын

If you feel comfortable in diving right in then I would say go for it! At the end of the day, I’d you are graduating with fresh skills and ideas, you can always try going out on your own first and then if you do want to work for a company, your experiences building on your own are still so relevant to our in your resume

one thing that i did not understand is if your dad owns a construction company then why you tried to get freelance projects? )

I have been a successful freelance Ecologist for 12 years but want to get into IT. I am intending to get AWS Solutions Architect Associate certification and complete 100 Days of Code and Boto3 courses on Udemy together with the Cloud Resume Challenge. Will this be enough to start freelancing as a cloud developer? I can make the switch gradually whilst continuing to run my ecology business. Your video made me think there maybe a lot of possible opportunities to provide my IT services within my extensive ecology consultancy network. Thanks for the useful video, much appreciated

Thanks! Came at the right time!

I want to find a full time position so that I can gain experience first. However, I will take on a freelance project here and there if it will help build out my portfolio to get hired. I prefer a team of people to work with if I get stuck. My question is this: Why did you not put the answer the question at the end of the video as you promised??? Which leads up to the follow up: What is the answer???? I am dying to know!

Great ideas Tiff, I have used a lot of tech tools, right now have the problems, I see opportunities in all of them, Google Ads, Wordpress websites, SQL, MS Power Bi, Odoo ERP, SCRUM, and I like all of them, any take on where to focus on as a freelance or independent consulting? Cheers!

Hey Tiff, this is a long shot here but would you be open to have a coffee chat? I have watched so many of your videos, and I think it would also be amazing to hear one on one from you about your career journey too. I just started learning how to program through free code Academy this January.

HI TIFF, Thank you so much for all the amazing sauce and knowledge you share with the E-Com world.

Do you have any suggestions or know of any I could join? I am launching my Digital Marketing Consulting gig. Thanks in advance.
