Most of your gigs will come through personal connections (or a referral from a connection) and being top of mind. can’t emphasize that enough… people want to hire a freelancer they can trust.
The alternatives are not great… companies like creative circle will take 50% of your rate, opps on freelance websites you’re competing with people overseas who will do it for pennies on the dollar.
A couple tips:
When outreaching to connections, don’t ask for a job. Just check in on how they’re doing. Meet up for a coffee or lunch etc. and when they ask about you you just finished up a cool project and are looking for the next thing.
You can also do personal projects that get shared on social / pitched to PR as a way of staying on the radar and expanding your network.
