How to become a freelancer?

Question

Freelance

I have a friend who wants to freelance. But he does not know how to do everything that is now fashionable among freelancers - neither design, nor layout, nor programming in php / js / ryby.

But then he can try himself as an embedded developer. In this regard, the question is how to actually find out how popular his services will be and where you can find orders on this topic?

To become a freelancer, you need, first of all, great self-organization.
For starters, treat self-learning as your first serious order.
And for people who switch to freelancing from the office, it turns out (to their surprise) that problem number 1 is to force yourself to work, and not to kill time with everything that is interesting on the network ...
Not for everyone, of course)

Yes, it’s not easy to be a freelancer, it all depends on you, at the time when I was still doing freelancing, I was doing such projects azino777.mobi , from which some pennies are still dripping.
