Things I am learning that can be difficult as a Freelance Graphic Designer. I am enjoying learning new things and I love what I am doing.
First Year
Learning how the business side of things work. Invoices, selling yourself, promotion etc.
Getting good projects.
Early in Freelancing it is difficult getting work.
Getting Quality Clients. Working with clients in different time zones.Next Few Years
Raising prices.
Figuring out the next steps.
As a freelancer, you don’t get a chance to work with a team, seniors and juniors, you don’t get a chance to learn from experienced team leaders and problem solvers. You don’t get real reviews and criticism from others which happens a lot in a full-time career.
