It’s Time to Build Your Freelance Portfolio Website. Are You Ready for Next-Level Freelancing?
Hey, it’s me, Dina! Thanks for being a part of my freelance world. I wanted to ask: how is your freelance portfolio website looking these days? Do you have one?
The job market is a bit wonky right now, and we all need to get it together. That’s the most important thing, if us creatives want to keep on keepin’ on, doing what we love.
If you’re here looking for ways to ramp up your productivity as a freelancer, reach more clients and land more work, I’ve got you.
So how’s your portfolio? Tight and together?
Or, are you like I was? Samples in folders all over the place? Printouts of old ads in random boxes crammed in the back of the attic, some files still with the client, and a muddle of mental confusion?
I want to introduce my helpful Freelance Portfolio Creation Guide
A Freelance Portfolio Website is Super Important in These Competitive Times
If your freelance portfolio needs some dusting off, let me nudge you gently in the right direction. Having physical copies of your work is great, but digital is where it’s at these days.
If you hope to pass through those office doors armed with your resume and portfolio, let’s do this.
Build your freelance portfolio this week. Knock their socks off with your creative talent and capabilities. Create an electronic version of your portfolio online, organized by niche and ready to share.
Why a Freelance Portfolio Website?
These days, every hiring manager wants quick access to your samples. If you don’t have these organized and presented on a website, some other freelancer will capture all the attention while you get passed over.
In fact, it’s become so common for creatives (freelance or not) to publish an online portfolio, that you’ll see a spot to paste your portfolio link on most job application forms.
Who Can Teach You How to Create a Freelance Portfolio Site? Me!
I recently did the hard work of compiling a huge collection of portfolio samples spanning 30 years of my copywriting and content writing career.
It took me quite a bit of time, but that’s because it was my first time. And you really want the navigation of your work samples section to function logically.
So, that was the unfortunate part. If you don’t know what you’re doing, making a freelance portfolio site is tedious and time-consuming. It might even induce some level of frustration.
BUT… that’s all behind me now! I’m at the phase now where each new work sample gets transferred to the right spot, and uploaded. Smooth… beautiful!
Step by Step Freelance Portfolio Website Creation: No Guesswork, Just Clear Instructions!
The GOOD NEWS: Now that I’ve completed it, and my freelance portfolio is live… I can share with you the exact steps to create YOUR freelance portfolio.
I compiled it all into an instant-download, PDF guide.
(Because this is one thing I do as an online writer! I create and sell digital products, like e-guides and email courses. You can, too!)
Okay, so let’s cover exactly what you’ll need to do to create your freelance portfolio.
Freelance Portfolio Creation Essentials
This is what you’ll need to speed ahead with creating a freelance portfolio website:
- Electronic copies of your work samples. How to get them: Take photos of your creations. Crop and resize them. Upload to your computer.
