Did FBP 144 leave you hanging for more freelancing secrets?
I knew you would be interested to know more so here’s an additional one for you: a recording of the panel discussion at the Trade Secrets MNL Workshop last September 23rd. Joining me as panelist were fellow freelancers John Pagulayan and Rowell Austria.
This was a continuation of the topics that we discussed earlier in the day – with main points focused on shifting from a corporate job to freelancing, the importance of branding, and the different ways to make money online.
Participants raised the following interesting questions:
- How big is the risk of leaving your job for freelancing?
- How to effectively brand yourself on Facebook especially for online shops?
- Can one be a freelancer without any existing skills?
- What are key insights that you can give to both experienced and beginner freelancers?
