do, it is who you are.
#FreelanceSpark T O P I C 2 : How do
you communicate?

subcontractors? with your audiences?
#FreelanceSpark sometimes business is just about relationship management.
#FreelanceSpark T O P I C 3 : Are you
confident?
#FreelanceSpark Are you confident? or maybe better: do you convey
confidence?
#FreelanceSpark confidence in yourself and in your work goes a
long way.
#FreelanceSpark in fact, don’t be afraid to bite off a
little more than you think you can chew.
#FreelanceSpark T O P I C 4 : How do
you promote yourself?
#FreelanceSpark How do you promote yourself? does it make a
difference?
#FreelanceSpark if you don’t have time to blog then don’t

and previous clients.
#FreelanceSpark T O P I C 5 : How focused
are you?
#FreelanceSpark How focused are you? specifically in terms of your

#FreelanceSpark even if you can do 1,000 different things, give
your potential clients some parameters
