Freelancing can be great but tough. To succeed start by building an online presence. Get a professional website and use LinkedIn to show off your skills and portfolio.

Networking is key; join industry groups and attend events to connect with clients and other freelancers. Don’t be afraid to use social media for visibility and engagement.

Set boundaries between work and personal life. Get a dedicated workspace and set working hours to stay productive and avoid burnout.

Financial management is key in the gig economy. Keep track of your income and expenses and use accounting software to make invoicing and tax prep easier.

And finally update your skills through online courses or workshops. Stay ahead of the curve and you’ll increase your value and open up more doors. Follow these and you’ll be a gig economy freelancer.
