Now, it’s time to give valuable information and insights to my lovely audience.
I am in the freelance industry and honestly, it is not easy to be a newbie freelancer. Many people will try to exploit you and not pay you.
This has happened with me too. (If you want to know, let me know in the comment section)
That incident’s story can help in learning how to protect yourself in this field.
Anyway, once you become confident of your skills and have a little experience, you will be making handsome money.
How?
By serving local as well as international clients.
Use your Medium account as your portfolio. Write good articles. Use samples to pitch to prospects. Get them on a discovery call. Sell your service and turn those prospects into clients.
Note: Don’t forget to get testimonials from your clients. You can also ask them to write a recommendation for your LinkedIn.
Have you thought why I have put Online courses right after freelancing?
Is it just point 2?
Nope! I have not put them in this sequence like that.
The reason behind that is:
Once you have built your name in the freelance industry. You have got an audience who is willing to learn from you. They want to know about you.
How you started?
How many clients you have?
How do you do things?
What are the insights?
Everything.
Then, you are ready to launch your courses. They will definitely be enrolling into your courses, which will open a new door of income for you.
Weekly, you can interact with your students and clear their doubts. This will allow you to build a positive network too.
P.S. Don’t try to fool them. It is your duty to provide good information in your courses. Do not consider money only.
There will be many people who want to buy your courses, but can’t.
Perhaps they can not spend that much money on their own and parents are not allowing. Something like that.
Now, what you can do is to share some free quality content on your Social Media like LinkedIn.
When those people get benefit from your posts and show their engagement. You are ready to make them subscribe to receive emails from your side.
The move can either be direct or indirect such as ‘To Get a free e-book, register using your email NOW’.
When you get the audience who wants to receive emails from you, you can start your game of Email Marketing.

Once started, you will find that not just your audience but domestic and global clients are interested in getting consultation from you.
Final words
These MPP alternatives are super helpful and will turn your writing into a business. You will be impressed by seeing your bank details. But before thinking of that, let’s come back to the present.
These will only help you when you are ready to help yourself. To make money out of them, you need to stay focused, consistent and determined.
BUT you should not force yourself in your weak days. Take rest, love yourself and enjoy life as well.
Work is a part of life, not life itself.
