⚡Fueler Weekly 107: 11 Tips to find high paying freelance clients
Don't fall for not so obvious things you see on the internet
If there is one question I receive daily, that question would be “How to find clients?”. Every day I receive 5-7 DMs asking this question.
In this week’s newsletter, I am here with an article that talks about several uncommon ways to look for new clients.
The best thing I liked about this article is that the writer doesn’t talk about obvious ways that are 2 decades old.
From this article, you will get to learn new approaches to making your struggle to find clients easier. Like,
Collaborate with strangers
Attend offline events
Actively engage with your prospects on social media
Apply with Proof of Work

❤️ Last Week at Fueler
Session on community building
We took our first session on community building. It’s one of the favourite things to discuss on because community is such an beautiful thing and this is something you earn with hardwork, passion and love for the game. You cannot fake it and there is no secret sauce to it.
Session on Design
Navigating different career path can be super hard, this is the reason we are trying to help our community members to learn and understand them.
Last week took a session on design, skills related to it and how you can build your career around it. With the feedbacks I got, it was super amazing as I tried to keep it really simple and practical.
We hold these sessions on a regular basis on our community. You should join it right away I’m telling you 👀 - Link to join

P.S: Okay, for this week I have a book recommendation for you. If you are willing to work with startups or join a startup, you definitely need to read this book - The Hard Things About Hard Things by Ben Horowitz.
It is one of the most brutal books on entrepreneurship I have ever read. Each line in this book will give you reality checks and that is what you need early in career.
