My Fall Freelancing Goals

my fall freelancing goals

It is officially the fall season! I know there are only a couple of months left in the year but I really want this year to go out with a bang so I set up some goals that will help me accomplish this.

Attain five more Clients
I have gained ground this year with attaining clients. I have a good idea of how long a blog post will take me so that I won’t overcommit. I have room for five more clients for the remainder of the year.

Post on the blog every day Monday – Friday
I haven’t had a regular schedule of posting on this website, and that is hurting me. I know that if I have more posts that I will gain more visibility and that will lead to more clients. I will commit to posting every day for the rest of the year Monday through Friday.

Continue to practice photoshop skills
I have FINALLY got the hang of photoshop. I am always one for adding new skills to my repertoire. It pays to be a well-rounded blogger. I will commit to practicing 10 hours a week so that I can make all my pictures fit my brand.

Brainstorm ideas for Ebook for next year
I want to write an ebook and sell it next year. I need to come up with a marketable idea. I will commit to doing 10 hours of research a week to come up with an idea then I will start working on it at the beginning of next year.

Build a buffer of posts
I have to admit. I am really bad at writing posts the night before. This causes trouble when one day I get sick, and can’t write that day’s posts. I want to build a buffer for my sick days. I will commit to spending 30 hours a week writing new posts for the blog.
Market my services more
I am REALLY bad about marketing my services. I know if I put myself out there I can gain more clients and more website visitors. I have committed 20 hours a week to marketing alone. I have someone helping me with this since I am new at marketing. I realized I needed help, so I researched and found someone. I recommend that if you need help with something don’t be afraid to ask. There is always a way to get the help that you need.
Be more active on Facebook
I looked on google analytics and found that most of my traffic comes from Facebook. I don’t really have the time or patience to deal with a lot of social media, so I am focusing on where the traffic is.
Be More Active on Pinterest
I read that Pinterest is a really hot social media traffic source, so I am trying it out. I bought a subscription to Tailwind, and I see some positive results from it.

Pitch to five different websites to write for
I will pitch to five different websites to write an article for. I want to write so to do that I need to get over my fear of rejection and just go for it.
