So You Think You Can Freelance?

Hi, I’m Robert Renteria.

Here’s Some of My Work.

Advice You’ll Likely Ignore.

Don't Go it Alone.

– Keep in touch.– Don’t be a jerk.– Help people.– Join the heard.

What to Expect When Your Client’s Expecting.

– Manage your expectations.– Mange client expectations.– Deadlines are deadlines.– Deadlines aren’t always

deadlines.

Charge Too Much.

– Your time is valuable.– Never give an estimate

without full discovery.– Not sure, ask your friends

or peers.

Don’t half ass.

– Research, a lot. Then research some more.

– Sell your work/concept.– Baby sitting.

“I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.”

- Pablo Picasso

– Kills, skills or bills.– Understanding process.– Qualified leads.– Experience.

Don’t be shy.

– Get input, avoid the bubble.

– Submit your work.– Share your work.
