Why are Freelancers so scared to talk about their achievements?
This might be hard for you. Or very easy. Depending on your confidence level. But when it comes to freelancing, you have to let other people know about your achievements.
It can come across like boasting, but in reality, you’re letting people know what you’re capable of, so that more people can benefit from your services.
As a freelancer, it's important to reflect on one's achievements. It feels like we’re always working and not getting anywhere. But by doing something everyday you’ll eventually get somewhere. And it’s only through reflecting on where we started and our achievements, that’s when we realise that the hard work pays off 💪
Just look at yourself
Think of where you are now compared to when you started your freelance journey?
What are your achievements? What are the results you've created for your clients? This can be something like: “I’ve increased my client’s sales by 20% just by changing this one thing on their website” or “I’ve learned how to design in Framer within a week”
Share something you’re proud of
No matter how big or small your achievement might have been, it’s time to let other people know what you’re capable of.
How to toot your own horn
It’s a good time to reflect on the things you’ve done in the past quarter. Post and boast about it on social media. You can end the post with “In the next 3 months, I’m aiming to… “ and write down your goals. Ask your network if they can help you make those things become reality.
Here’s the post I’ve done on Linkedin in case you need a little inspiration.
I know it feels awkward and posting about my achievements feels very much out of my comfort zone. But if I can do it, you can do it too 🙌
Not feeling ready?
If you haven’t been active on Linkedin, writing a post can feel very out of your comfort zone. But maybe I can get you to comment on my post with your goals? Maybe my network can help you for your 2024 goals.
No matter if you decide to create your own post, comment on mine or skip this task completely, write down one achievement you’re proud of this year.
I know there’ll be something. And take a moment to genuinely be proud of it ☝️ It’s been a long year, and for many, it’s been a tough one. And you’re still here, which in itself is great 😌
