Haha. Yes!! Nice. That’s an average of over 1k a day M-F. Thats good no matter, but given the state of the industry you are doing very well. Good luck and break both those legs!
Clever, could have meant that I guess! Would have been funnier. 😆 What was intended was: “average of over 1k a day Monday - Friday” (an engagement that doesn’t have weekends).
Been doing $37,000/mo consistently.
Thought i might humble you (and also flex)
First 🤣 well played.
Now, tell us your secrets. How do you bill? Direct to client? Agency? Day rate? Project rate?
Whoa, $22K pre-tax in your first month freelancing? That’s amazing. Most people in their first few months are just trying to hit $3K–$5K while they build a client base. Even seasoned freelancers often average between $8K and $15K per month, so $22K right out of the gate is next level. To put it in perspective, annualized, that would be $264,000, far above average for most freelance careers, especially in the early stages.
Doesn't mean they are working 24/7 at that rate. If you're not billing enough to cover the time that you're not working, you're not factoring in a high enough rate. Generally, it averages out. I charge $1000/day, and that generally works out to about $100-130k/year working half the year.

I am a millionaire, please help me spend my money
Sure, send me a couple million and I can help you get rid of them real fast.
Honestly dying to know how you did so well in your first month! How did you find the business?
Friend’s husband (I worked with the friend at a branding agency) and then an old CD I had
Honestly this whole thing scares me and I got laid off and don’t think I’m good enough so ! ! ! Yeah
Honestly don’t understand how anyone is getting freelance opps in this market - how are you even getting jobs when companies are trying to reign in spending
