Launching a freelance business is one thing. But growing your business, building customer loyalty and increasing your income is quite another. Whether you're a graphic designer, copywriter, social media manager or SEO consultant, developing your freelance business requires specific skills and a well thought-out strategy.
A freelancer who thrives is a freelancer who knows what he's selling and to whom. Sector specialization, tone, communication channels: the clearer your positioning, the easier it is for the right customers to find you.
A website, an Instagram grid, a Notion page or even a well-constructed PDF: you need to showcase your achievements, customer testimonials, and case studies.
