How to create your freelance business plan?
Whenever you think of a business plan, what comes first on your head?
I think, you are thinking of creating a document that will be 30-50 pages and that you will spend hundreds of hours to make. Generally, a type of business plan model is taught in the academic line. But for a freelancer, it is not right to create a business plan in the same way. Even then, you can make some plans before working with a client. In particular, if you are not sure about your destination, you will never be able to reach there.
There's nothing to worry about here. You do not have to create a huge document for this purpose. If you want to, or if possible, you can create a quality business plan in two pages as well as following the answers to the questions mentioned below.
Have you solved the problem?
A freelancer works differently. You can be a freelance artist, a freelance consultant, freelance writer, designer, filmmaker or photographer. There really are so many fields here that can not be finished. When someone asks you what you do, a freelancer usually answers like this: Web Designing, Programming, Photography etc. But tell me about what you can do to solve your problems without defining what you do with your business plan.
What do you do SEO Can not you solve the problem like this? I can bring a webpage to the first page of the search engine. In this way, you can more easily understand about your competence. Because, all successful businesses solve problems with a few people. So you can decide whether you can solve or solve any kind of problem.
Who do you solve the problem for?
There are many things here that will make you more qualified, when you start a business, such as working with the right client.
Think, you are a woman entrepreneur, who wants to take a graphic design service from a young man who is young, active and lively. Would you like a graphic designer who is willing to work with a young, active and vibrant woman entrepreneur, or would you like a graphic designer who owns a CEO of a finance company and with that he knows some good graphics design work.
Anyone?
The plans of this part of your business need to be more specific. Record details. You do not define clients in the same way according to your needs; Also mention personality, value, opinion, attitude, interests and living. When you understand your desired clients, they can find them very easily. Speak in their language and present yourself as a 'brand'.
How do you find the desired client?
As you have now set out, what kind of problems will you solve and solve for whom, now your job is where and how to find this desired client.
The word 'marketing' is a bit scary to the new freelancers, but it is very important that you continue your freelance business successfully. So, instead of just developing a marketing plan, you only start looking for your desired clients, it will be much more difficult.
Because, now you know what your desired client will be like, now imagine where to find clients. They go to a specific event, where you can get them. Do they participate in a particular social media channel? Are they on the blog?
Think, your desired client can spend time anywhere, where you go or you will get him.
How are you different?
You may have noticed that there are freelancers involved with almost all organizations.
Almost all the clients, who are present, think that the freelancers are always trying to attract their attention.
Here you have to keep something that will separate you from everyone, which is called 'Unique Selling Proposition' by marketers.
Here's one thing, you've already done a lot to be unique to your client. What's better than this is the unique selling proposition or what you might be saying about your desired client or business type. It separates an experienced freelancer, on a specific topic, which requires your client.
Can you present yourself as a more unique subject or something?
You always have a clear idea about your business plan, which will help you connect with the right clients.
How do you make money from business?
You must not start freelancing business for your health. You will start freelancing business for earning money. How do you plan on building your business as a source of income rather than depending on others. Think about what you would like to do to your clients. It's just that you're freelancing, but this does not mean that you do everything, you'll be providing a specific service, and that's normal.
Now imagine, the service you are offering, how much should it be? How many fees do you expect from this service? Now imagine how many clients you can afford this service and whether you will be able to afford all your expenses with the money received each month. If you consider everything in this way, then you will be surprised how much it is helping you.
What do you spend money on...
It is inevitable that if you do business, you will have to bear some costs, such as web hosting for your business, invoice software, tax, business coaches and any other costs. In fact, you are investing your business further and increasing its productivity. You must be sure that you have kept these costs in your plan.
So now, consider how much you are spending to start your business. Have you invested in buying a lot of expensive equipment to make your business even better? Your business will never be stagnant, it's a running condition, which will develop over time. But it is very important to create a proper plan for this.
You Do not Have a Business Plan ...
But you have to create a plan for this freelancing business. This is not a complicated process. This does not mean that you have to work hard to write hundreds pages.
Just keep the answers to the above question, and if it does well, then I will say that you are ready to work with your desired client.
