How to Land $1000 Consistently As a Freelancer In Nigeria Even As a New Writer…

1. WAITING FOR PERFECTION IS A TRAP – Choose Efficiency Over Perfection

Unlike the other making money online niches, freelancing is one of the cheapest and easiest to start out with but most newbie freelancers spend so much time building the perfect online presence and a good number of times miss out on very important opportunities just because they were chasing clouts and not the actual thing, perfection comes with time, resist the urge to want perfection over frequency or consistency in showing up…

When you are just starting out, don’t try to create the ideal website or online presence before you earn a single dollar. This is a major time waster. You don’t have to be a complete professional before you begin to relate with clients or apply for gigs

Your goal here shouldn’t be to land the perfect Job.

The aim is to book gigs as soon as possible. I really don’t advise that you concentrate on choosing a niche or creating an ideal web presence for a reason. The reason for this is that doing these things takes time that you could be using to develop new talents, work with clients, and generate more money for yourself.

2. GET YOUR PROFILE SET UP AND READY – It Doesn’t Have To Be Perfect, Just Do Something Reasonable

The next most important thing is to set up a good enough profile for yourself, Behind every success, acceptance or approvals you see are countless rejections. Before you can record an enormous amount of success, first you have to understand that there is no way in the world you can do it without having to fail, getting rejected and learning consistently

It doesn’t have to be picture perfect from the beginning, give yourself to growth and never stop learning, i have attached a short video content by JenniferMasie to guide you on how you can create a freelance profile that stands out and has the potential to land you $1000 consistently as a freelancer in Nigeria.

3. FOCUS ON BUILDING AND LEARNING NEW SKILLS

The skills you have are the live wire you need to thrive as a freelancer in Nigeria, what exactly can your hand do excellently that makes you stand out from the millions of people already into freelancing?… aim to get new skills, top skills like : Efficient communication, Copywriting , Salesmanship – so you know exactly how to price yourself right and so many other easy to learn skills…

Learning new skills give you a higher chance of landing a job on Up-work and other freelancing platforms as a freelancer in no distant time…with the right skills, you will be set up for something far beyond your expectations.

4. HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY SEARCH FOR PROFITABLE JOBS

On Up-work, there are 3 sections you need to know when searching for jobs, the first is your general dashboard, the second is recommended and best matches (Up-work shows you updates based on previous jobs you have done previously. here are ways you can conveniently scale up on up-work and use them to your advantage

1. Great work is rewarded on Up-work

When you’re working on a project for a client, make it your best work. The higher the quality of work that you do for your clients, the more jobs you’ll get in the future.

You’ll have clients coming to you as you build a reputation for excellent work. Rather than seeking out job listings, you’ll receive notifications from clients who ask you to interview with them. At that point, you can consider raising your rates and earn even more on each new project.

2. Focus on the client

Clients are looking to hire freelancers who can help them solve a problem that they can’t solve themselves, and they want to know how you can do it. Make sure to focus on the client and their situation. Explain how you’ll provide value to the client. Instead of making your profile, proposals, and communication all about you, make it about them.

3. Use your portfolio as a valuable tool

Use your portfolio as a showcase for your skills and expertise. You can include samples of past projects, case studies, screenshots, testimonials, or anything that demonstrates your work quality. Use the portfolio descriptions to provide background and tell a story about how each piece in your portfolio helped solve a client’s problem. Don’t forget to pick portfolio pieces that reflect your niche and the jobs you want to get more of in 2021.

6. BE PATIENT AND DON’T GIVE UP!

Your first client was likely the hardest to get; it’s just a matter of replicating that success to get more jobs. It takes time to grow a successful freelance business. Be patient, stay optimistic, and put in the work to get more clients.

The beginning is always the hardest but then it gets better with time and consistent effort, there will be days where you will loose hope and be down, but that’s the best time to actually put in the work and make a difference because with time it will get a whole lot easier to get clients and make money too…

How to Receive Your Money in Dollars from Freelancing Platforms Like Upwork And Fiverr…

You would agree with me that there is absolutely no point taking up gigs, learning new skills and searching for profitable jobs if you don’t intend to make money from it, now that you have done these things i just outlined and started making money for yourself, the next thing on your mind should be how best you can withdraw your dollars to your naira account with little or no conversion rate…

I know of a whole lot of payment portals which you could use in receiving your dollar payments, but most of them have a very high conversion rate, asides the very many, Flaxx is one that stands out, they take no charge for deposits, and withdrawal rates are really low, its almost FREE…

The last time i used waivve, unlike other payments platforms, it was surprisingly, fast, easy to use and my money landed in my account in less than 15 minutes unlike last month when i used paypal, I had $1000 hanging for weeks going to months before receiving it… i had to send series of emails, i even know of a guy who lost $2800 of his earnings to bad service just like this one…so if you must use any other payment portal, use at your own peril…

But for receiving your freelancing earnings, i strongly recommend Flaxx anytime any day.
