4 Ways to get more work from Freelance Job Boards

Job boards.. yuck, right?

Filled with people wanting to be the next Mark Zuckerberg by shelling out $500 for a Facebook clone, crazies, and the unrealistic.

  2. Always sign a contract.

  4. When reaching out to a client show them how you can provide value to them, not how many years of experience you have. They'll likely get a ton of responses.
