If I was just getting started again, here's how I would go about it.
- Find a notable company in a larger industry with a poorly designed website.
- Find the decision maker and "try" to get authorization to redo their website... TOTALLY FREE OF CHARGE. If they like it, they can use it.
- If you can't find the decision maker, DO IT ANYWAY.
- Redesign the website.
- Make sure it is your best work, and a clear improvement over the original website.
- Email the entire upper management the link of the new website -- reiterate that it is FREE and that you will change anything they want.
- Once they see the work and realize it is FREE, they will probably accept it.
- Now you have your first client -- giving you the ability to say "We recently redesigned XXX's website." -- giving you social proof with a notable company. Now you can look to start charging. If not, repeat.
- The above can be done for APPS as well. (I noticed you didn't have a mobile app?)
- At some point, it will become easier and easier to find paid work.
- Pick color of Lamborghini.
Applying these steps starting NOW.
