1. Identify what services you can offer.
2. Develop a blue ocean skill.
3. Invest in yourself and your biggest asset, which is you.
4. Learn how to convince clients to hire you.
5. Get out there and start finding clients.
6. Develop a freelancer mindset.

I've been watching videos on freelancing for almost a month now and none of them were as informative and helpful as this one.

[@agaw1845]

The language point is so on point. It is much better when I rephrase everything into what the client would get. It is much better than telling them what I would do for them as a video editor
Btw, didn’t know you can speak Mandarin

Thanks Deya. The concept of starting to trade your time for money and then moving on to " trading value for money" as soon as you can.
I also really love the focus you give on systems.
Thanks.

[@agenttoffiehere9578]

I am a beginner freelancer, and this was VERY helpful gave me an insight and clues for where I could make changes. Thank you ❤️

[@MyNameIsDeya]

Us baby tomatoes are still "catch(ing) up!" But would be cool to have this or an old journal back in 2016 of the start of the journey and to look back at that and think, how things have gone since then and how differently the start would be if you started now

[@youssefreda934]

Thanks 👍

It's late January '24 and I've just watched a few of your videos and subscribed - especially when you mentioned that you, too, had experienced moving to a different country - I lived in Japan for 15 years on my own.., I subscribed to your channel.., only to realize it's a channel intended for self-employed "GIRLIES"?? I don't know why your content should be separated but so be it. I'm gonna stick around, regardless because I like how you lay out your info.

Hey Deya! This is super helpful. Would you consider providing social media marketing services to B2B clients, as a blue ocean skill?

[@halimayusuf8007]

First view dear

[@mohibquadri4053]

3 books that would help directly or indirectly when starting over ? As freelancers or solopreneurs from home..

[@teahgriffith8351]

How do i know what is a blue ocean or a red ocean skill

[@m.ehtizan]

Hey Deya, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I was wondering if I could help you edit your videos and also make highly engaging shorts for you.

[@m.ehtizan]

any thoughts Deya?
