In this episode I tell the story of my first year as a full-time freelancer. I talk about my reasons for making the jump, the support I had, the challenges, and I even tell you how much money I made.
In this episode we talk about the importance of building your portfolio, a common excuse that stops freelancers from getting started, and we give 3 ways to both create/find work for your portfolio and get it published online.
In this inaugural episode RJ discusses the dream and potential that freelancing can bring as well as tells his story of becoming a full time freelancer.
This episode is an introduction to The Freelance Podcast. We answer the questions of who we are and what we're all about. Welcome to The Freelance Podcast.

About The Freelance Podcast
From the publisher's feed
Another podcast for freelancers? Yea, I know, but let me explain. Podcasts are an awesome way to learn from people that are where you want to be professionally and have the experience you can learn…
from. One thing I found is that some of the advice was a little beyond where I was at in my journey to make the jump to a full time freelancer. That is where The Freelance Podcast jumps in and tries to bridge the gap. I have talked with a lot of people that are in the position I was before I made the leap, working a full time job and freelancing on the side. The target audience for this podcast is those who are looking for advice and motivation to finally quit their job and focus 100% on what they love to do and why they freelance in the first place. I have been in your shoes and know the inspiration that a good podcast can have. This is not meant to be the best podcast for all freelancers, but instead is meant to be the best for those just getting started by giving real world advice and information that can be acted on immediately. Not advice that only works if you have a huge network of people or huge email list.
