Quick…who has the biggest influence on your freelance career?
Maybe your answer is a mentor, a business guru, your past clients, or even me, but I’m going to let you know, that none of those should be the case.
Building a long term freelance career is all about moving and growing with the needs of people you serve now and in the future. That means your biggest guide
should be your niche. With all the noise and information out there though, that can be difficult, that’s why this week’s freelance tip is…
Always be listening.
We’re into the second week of Social Media month and are focusing on following prospects,
thought leaders, competitors, news sources, and organizations in meaningful ways on Twitter. If you want to follow along with the Academy, go to your Twitter and look for accounts in your niche that you can both learn from and pitch to. Spend some time this week putting that together and you’ll be amazed at how quickly your timeline will become an invaluable resource for building your freelance
career.
