Hello Friend,

Getting started and building a business as a freelancer is an endeavor that is both very exciting and conversely overwhelming. You can't help but think of all the joys of doing what you love and having the freedom of doing what you want, when you want. But on the flip side you can also see the hard work that is involved, the clients who are not happy, and all the work of continually trying to get bring on new clients.

Sure being a freelancer is not all great and at times difficult. However, just remember the downsides of working for someone else where the job has limited pay per hour and you are required to work the number of hours someone else dictates. Freelancing is working for clients but you can easily get paid more per hour and work when you would like. The income may not be regular but is that better than earning a steady check with a job? That's the choice you must make.

Since you are reading this article, I'll assume you are interested in learning more. And yes, if you have a business already, there are always lessons to be learned. Arming yourself with information is what keeps your business growing. Or if you are starting as a freelancer, learning the right steps will help in those overwhelming moments that come with growth.

Also, remember that you are not alone. Yes, you may be working alone, but you have friends, family, StomperNet, mentors and others who are there to support you mentally and emotionally. You also can find meet-up groups that put you in touch with people of similar interests, or people who might be interested in the services you offer.

Now read on to see the tips that Chris Custer has for you today.

Few things in life are as exhilarating, liberating - and freaking scary - as the day when you leave the 9-5 for good and step into the world as a full-time freelancer.

Freelancing is one of the simplest businesses to start. And no matter what the field--copywriting, marketing, life coaching, wedding planning--there are definite landmines hidden on the journey that can obliterate your career in a nanosecond.

Over the last three years of being a freelance copywriter part-time and fulltime, I've learned the hard way how to navigate some pretty treacherous waters. I've ridden the waves of feast and famine so much that my bank account has often resembled before-and-after photos of a weight loss ad.

But along the way, I've nailed down some critical keys that make ...
