4. Work specific hours and turn off all distractions.

reasonable time frame.
Online Tools to Promote Your Freelance Career
Use freelance services that are specific to your profession such
as PostBidWin.com for
creative/graphic design jobs or InteractiveVoices.com
for voice actors. Stay away from the big freelancing sites like
elance and guru. You will only get lost in a sea of freelance
workers where the ratio of jobs to designers is downright
depressing.
Some of the newer services are offering marketing solutions
for
your profile or portfolio to drive traffic to your personal
website. Take advantage of these services before their true
value is discovered and the prices sky-rocket.
Putting It All Together
These tips, along with a solid Portfolio of your sample work
will build a strong foundation for your freelance career to
flourish. I've gone from working 8 hours a day plus a 1 hour
commute to less than 4 hours a day. And now I make almost twice
what I did when I worked full-time. Try It.
