My first project was a favor for my father-in-law. His church needed a new website.
When I started freelancing professionally 5 years ago, I booked my first real jobs through Elance. The pay wasn't great but got some portfolio pieces and references. Over time I left Elance, but I still have some agency clients that found me from Elance.
- tagabek 13y agoThanks for sharing, dalerus. Would you recommend that beginning freelancers use sites like Elance?
- dalerus 13y agoIt's a good place to start to get portfolio pieces and I still maintain a presence there. I have an alert that emails me if anything gets posted in the 10K+ range. Also I just started hiring developers via oDesk and I enjoy their system better than Elance. But I can't say how good they are for leads.
