This might just be the podcast that gets you over the edge of frozen and confused — to finally getting started as a freelancer. Me and Judy Bahaou, a fellow freelancer, sat down and answered the REAL questions majority of beginner freelancers are struggling with right now, like… …Is it still possible to make money freelancing in 2025? → What skills are actually worth learning? → Can you still land clients with a personal brand — or has that moved on? → What if you’ve got no experience, no testimonials, no audience? → And with AI moving so fast… is it even smart to start now? Plus, we share how we got our first clients — and what’s helped us keep landing more. 🎙️ You can watch the full episode here https://youtu.be/kaH2tdDLHak And by the time you get to the end of it… You’ll feel clearer on what actually works right now. You’ll feel more excited (and less overwhelmed) about starting. And you’ll know that freelancing is still possible — even if you’re brand new, no matter your age or background. https://youtu.be/kaH2tdDLHak

This is the one of the problems I see many of you and freelancers that I mentor in this group come across when starting outreach and the 'getting clients' process that stops you from getting clients. The problem isn't finding clients, they're everywhere. The real problem is you don't know who you want to work with. If you don't know what your looking for, how can you find it? So if your literally just starting, or finding outreach ''hard'' because you don't know who your looking for, here's an exercise for you that I usually give away to freelancers I personally mentor in Freelance Fast-Track: Who do you want to work with? The first thing that probably came into your mind is: ''uhm,'' ''I don't know,'' ''It's kind of complicated...'' Let's clear some of the blur for you right now: Do you want to work with people in ecommerce? Do you want to work with Infopreneurs? Like a coach or a course creator? Are they a content creator? What specific niche do you want to specialise in? Like health & wellbeing, wealth creation, hobbies & arts, relationships? What service do you provide and what problem & result do you help them solve & achieve? Now massive gray area, you don't need to super niche in the beginning, but it's extremely crucial you know who you want to target. So with that said, Who do you want to work with? PS: Since a lot of you have been wanting my help, If you want personal 1-1 help by me and from other 4-5 figure freelancers on helping you figure out and pin point your perfectly aligned clients, feel free to join our Freelance Fast Track Weekly Live Trainings By the way, we also show you how to acquire those clients, how to get them sick results with your freelance services, and even review your stuff :)

If you're currently at the stage in your freelance journey where you want to land your first client, but you haven't started, you don't know where to find clients, and your just confused, please read this because I get this same question asked a lot. Here are the exact 6 Easy-To-Access Platforms That Anyone Can Use To Land There First Client: 1) Instagram 2) Facebook 3) Skool 4) LinkedIn 5) Upwork 6) Fiver 7) Cold Email 8) X/Twitter Taadaaaa! Supriseeee :) Hahah, everyone seems to overlook these platforms which I don't understand because I am landing clients through these platforms, and I have mentored freelancers who are also landing clients through these platforms There is no “findmyclients.com” All you need to do now is get very very clear on who you want to work for. Here's a mind boggling question for you: If you don't know what your looking for, then how can you find it? If you want help on pinpointing who you want to work for, just like this post, or comment your fav emoji 🤘

So what does work then? Is it still possible to land clients as a freelancer? What platforms work nowadays? I'm sure we can all relate to this, right... Outreaching can feel like just one big maze that everyone else somehow got the map to but you... And with all the noise nowadays it starts to blend into one big, confusing blur of... “this doesn’t work” or “clients aren’t replying” and “maybe this was a bad idea” or worse ''should I just give up' And I get that! I really do because I have experienced this exact thing myself. Because when you’re surrounded by ''gurus'' showing off these perfect outreach scripts and £10k wins in their first week, it’s incredibly easy to fall into that trap. From my personal experience landing multiple clients as a freelancer, and helping other in this group do the same, the only thing that’s actually “broken” is not outreach. It's not instagram, It's not facebook, It's not skool, It's not linked in... It's the expectation these influencers have put in your mind. That your first 1, 10, 20, 50, 100 cold DMs should land you a dream client... That if you haven’t made £1k by week two, or within the first month of starting, you’re doing it wrong. That if it doesn’t work fast, it doesn’t work at all. That if your from a certain country, it doesn't work for you. What if the real issue wasn’t that “nothing works”… Here’s what no one seems to talk about that genuinely changed everything for me: What starts as “just trying to figure out how to get clients”… Turns into waiting. And that waiting for the perfect message, the perfect platform, the perfect time... it slowly becomes this 'thing' that never actually happens. (I waited like that for longer than I’d like to admit.) So when I made that TINY DECISION to stop waiting to feel “ready'' and just start was when I started landing clients at $700MRR, $1.5KMRR, $2KMRR… And eventually cracked my first $5K+MRR project. That’s how I finally crossed into five-figures. Now, here's some gems that we shared in the Freelance Fast-track lives this week that I wanted to let you guys in on:
