Freelancing (Anyone do it?)

[lilsammy]

Hi all,

I currently work for a multimedia company that pays crap and the majority of my time spent here is making power points instead of actual challanging multimedia.

I have considered relancing before but never done any work with clients over the web I have done some computer repair work you know like £20 call out and the first hour and £10 every hour after that but you only get so much of that and its been a while since anyone enquired about it.

Just wandering how difficult it is in terms of getting a client base etc thats the point at which I think I will fail is actually getting the clients. I wouldn't be worried about doing the work I am very capable just getting clients anyone ever tried freelancing web development, graphic design, programming or computer repairs?

Well it sort of already is somthing I do on the side its just only odd jobs at unregular intervals I get, the problem with doing it after work is that I am so tired by the time I get home with getting up at 6 and getting home at around 6 I feel very tired so looking for work is not the sort of thing you feel like doing when you finish work for the day.

I guess its a case of you put the work in to get the work.
