Quick update - 1st TWO CLIENTS!!
Grabbed a client through upwork at $40/hr (in your face the guys who say upwork is for cheapo's only.)
In their defense, I have a pretty great profile, with references, portfolio examples, top 30% tests and a small amount of positive feedback.
The second client came from a facebook group.
My email campaign got a few responses since my last post, however they were people who really wanted to hire me as in house due to my credentials. I'm passed that so I passed.
Here are the numbers.
Client 1: $100 landing page rewrite with more to come in the future if it's good. Which it will be because I know what I'm doing.
Client 2: This one is a non profit. Code for Kicks. They're a coding camp for at risk youths that teaches them skills to have a future in technology. In order to incentive these kids to go through the program the reward is a free pair of expensive sneakers, provided by donation. SUPER cool client and one I can relate to so I think it will be a great relationship. This one is $40 an hour. I may give an few hours away as a donation because I really like the cause.
Personally I think it will only take me about an hour or 2 to complete the project, but I know they have more work to me.
I'll estimate my earnings at around $200 all together. Nothing crazy, but it's a start.
