August 5th, 2008 at 10:58 amWhat helps keep me organized in my freelance career, juggling many different clients? Get one spiral notebook and take ALL your notes in it. That way, when you’re trying to find a phone number or specs for a project, it’s in one place instead of scattered on various post-its or scraps of paper around your office. This has saved me TONS of time searching. Plus, since i use it for every client visit, i know that notes from the last meeting will be readily available in my one handy notebook.
i got an unlined notebook so i can do thumbnail sketches for the client too.

August 5th, 2008 at 3:08 pmHey there! I just entered the contest. I’m just starting out in freelance writing and my tip to other new freelancers is DON’T quit and give yourself time to build up a portfolio. Set goals for yourself like I want to make this much a month in three months, six, one year. But don’t ‘try’ freelancing for one month and say it’s not working. Give your all!
