A short but sweet article revealing the number one tip for freelancers starting out perusing a career within freelance design, or maybe even a good tip for even experienced freelancers.

As a freelance designer at most times you are completely unaware of when new freelance opportunities may arise for you to undertake a specific project. Relying on only one income where you’re generating money from is very risky. There are so many obstacles which can occur during a project which may lead to a project falling through, and not receiving money for your time which you may have committed to that project.
