Are you Really Prepared to Freelance Full-Time?
Well, Suw Charman uses the more generic term “soloist” in her article A Crash Course in Business Realities for Soloists. But she writes about what’s very applicable to any freelancer attempting to strike out on their own:
It’s about business. You need cash in hand to start up, you presumably have a planning time frame, and during that time, squirrel money away to support you in the beginning. Approach this as a business, build a spreadsheet, know how much money you need and what you’re going to spend it on. Know how you are doing, what your burn rate is, and whether you can afford to take a trip to a conference.
Couldn’t have said it any better. Check out the full article at strange.corante.com.
