Hi Fastlaners,
currently I'm in the research phase for my next business. I will solve one or more problems for (software) freelancers. I'm doing freelance software projects myself for several years now and I see marketing/positioning/finding GOOD projects is one of the hardest problems here. E.g. What is your ideal client and how do you find them.
Now I started talking to all the freelancers I met within the last years some time ago. I connect to high-profile freelancers via linkedin and Xing to interview them about their sales and marketing. I connect to freelancers I don't know to ask them about their biggest pains. And I ask people from companies with medium-large IT departments about their problems with finding and hiring freelancers.
And right now I realized that some people here talk either about being software developers themselves, or hiring and outsourcing software projects.
So if you would like to get your biggest problem as a freelancer / software developer or someone who hires freelancers solved, please tell me what your biggest problem is. And if you are a software freelancer and you are satisfied with the projects and clients you have, might I ask to interview you about your sales / marketing?
Thank you!
