    I'm a freelance software dev learning marketing over tech

    INTRO 
    Freelancing is a business, if you treat it as one. Without marketing, it's similar to being a part-time employee, in my case.

    I didn't manage to get any reviews, lol. I did a bit of marketing and 5 people starred on of them on Github. A CLI currency converter (I made one) can be useful, but it's a vitamin at best. People can always use Google to convert currency. Are you trying to get leads on Quora?

    Hey. I found your intro inspiring, I should've written one like yours. Mine is focused on a single episode, while yours is a bird-eye view. And thanks for reminding me that focusing on selling and money is a wrong approach. That's so useful, I'll add that to my evening journaling. Something...

    Hi, About a year ago, I needed to find another freelance gig, and I was facing a choice: learn another tech (Kubernetes) or learn marketing. There was a lot of demand for Kubernetes, and I figured that if I had experience working with it, I could get those gigs listing it. But, from "The...
