If you follow me on Twitter you may well know most of this but if not then you wont. Essentially whilst at Uni I planned to do the odd client project when I felt like it, believing stupidly that I would be able to support myself on that and my loan and a small bit of support from my parents.
Whilst I can just about, it does not leave me much free-will in terms of spending - and whilst I’m not a complete party-animal I do like to go out and enjoy myself from time to time. Recently I’ve had a few enquiries from various people about my rates and when I’m available.
Freelancing is something I am definitely considering doing once I graduate, and also over my 4 month summer period, when I aim to save up lots of money working full time, either at a local agency or maybe freelance.
So I’ve decided I’m going to throw myself in whilst at Uni - and have figured out I can dedicate around 10-15 hours per week on freelance work.
And this is where you come in. I have a vague idea of what I need to do but nothing more than that - I’m talking about invoicing, what should I charge, how should I go about scheduling work, etc, etc. I know I follow a lot of people who are freelancers and some who have taken the plunge recently, but I’m all ears. Any advice is much appreciated, so if you hit me up with a comment I’d love it, or throw an email to jack [AT] jackfranklin [DOT] co [DOT] uk.
Thanks.
