How I’m Building A Profitable Freelance Business: Day 2
I have yet to receive any reply from the company I was negotiating with for over 24 hours. Worst case scenario, I won’t get the job but thats ok. A very strange thing happened as a result of pulling the trigger. My mind seems to have gone on overdrive as I find myself coming up with more ideas on how I could generate income and starting businesses. Weird how God made the human mind to work. I have identified a few other companies yesterday and I was thinking of offering my services to revamp their existing site to create a new Flash site. However after thinking things through, I realised what I really need is a long term strategy that will result in recurring business. So here are my next actionable steps:
- Identify 5 companies that have ideas and need my skills to make it a reality.
- Identify 5 designers who needs a Flash developer to bring their ideas to life.
- Send emails to those people describing my skills and services offered.
- While waiting for a response, identify 5 more individuals and companies.
- Create a 20 questions form for companies to fill in to better identify what they need.
- Figure out how I can provide other value added services.
Time to take some action!
