Marv de Leon

Hi, I’m Marv de Leon.

Like most of you, I was a yuppie. I worked in the corporate world for 18 years and had a high-paying job but was on the brink of burning out. I got tired.

Until one day, I decided: “Enough is enough!”

I needed an exit plan.

However, I didn’t know where to start.

Until, in October of 2013, I attended a big event for Filipino freelancers. There I met dozens of freelancers and a handful of successful ones who were doing it full time.

I didn’t realize until then that was already a large group of Filipinos who are working and earning from home. That was my light bulb moment!

From there, I approached those successful freelancers, picked their brains and then decided to form a community of Filipino freelancer so that I can continue learning from them.

Then, in June 2015, I took the leap, retired from corporate job and became a full-time, work from home dad. I turned into a bona fide FREELANCER.

 

It’s Your Turn

If you think freelancing is only for those lucky, select few people, you’re wrong.

Freelancing works and if I was able to do it, so can you. We will teach you how.

Results from our past Freelancing for Beginners workshops

During the last Freelancing for Beginners workshop, one of our students, Ingrid (under the pen name Anna Scott) created this prototype Digital Portfolio, which was adjudged the best digital portfolio of the day.

After the workshop, Ingrid instantly took action and created her actual Digital Portfolio at www.ingridients.url.ph. Immediately, graphic design clients came knocking on her door because of her epic digital portfolio.
