Regardless of whether you’re building a big, beautiful website, or just getting your LinkedIn profile up and running, one of the first things you need to focus on as a growing freelancer is your web presence.

Hold up a second though. It’s really easy to get ahead of yourself here. That’s why this week’s freelance tip is.

I know you’re probably already thinking of templates and sliders and websites and brand development, but those come after one essential element of your freelance life. This element determines not only what your website looks like and what it will contain, but also where you’ll look for clients, how you’ll communicate with them…pretty much everything you do as a freelancer.

That one thing is your freelance messaging, and I wrote a post on why exactly it means so much to you here. Not only will you learn why it matters in that post, but you’ll also run through exactly how to build your own. Take a few minutes and work through it…it will change your life as a freelancer.
