(No Experience Needed, perfect for complete beginners)
What is freelancing?
• Freelancing ka matlab yeh hai ke humein koi project mil jaye hum ghar mein baith kar kaam karein aur paise kama sakein, apne timing ke according aur bina kisi jagah par kaam karne ke.
• Traditional jobs and freelancing difference
Traditional Jobs: Is ka matlab hota hai aisi jobs jis mein humein kaam karne ke liye khaas waqt par office jana lazmi hota hai, aur kisi khaas location par jana hota hai.
•. Freelancing: Is mein hum apni marzi se job karti hain. Hum ghar baithe reh kar kaam nahi karti balkey bas client ke liye kaam karti hain. Freelancing ka sab se bada faida yeh hota hai ke aap kisi bhi waqt par kaam kar sakti hain aur is ke liye aap ko kisi khas location par bhi jane ki zaroori nahi hoti. Humein ek 9 to 5 wala life cycle follow nahi karna parta aur na hi roz uth kar office jane ki zaroori hoti hai.
•. Freelancing kya hota hai?
Freelancing mein agar humein kaam chahiye to humein is mein reh kar hi kaam dhoodna hota hai. Is ke liye humein alag alag course ki zaroorat hoti hai kaam ko pakadne ke liye, alag course yeh kaam ko manage karne ke liye, humein alag course ki zaroorat hai kaam ko kar ke client ko deliver kaise karna hai. Is ke liye alahida course humein banana rahe ga.
Client se secure payment kis tariqe se leni hai, yeh ek ek module hai aur ek ek topic hai mukammal tor par.
• Freelancing ke liye humein yeh sab cheezein seekhni parhein gi:
• Kaam ko kaise lekar aana hai aur kis tariqe se client ko offer karna hai, ya pitch kaise karna hai.
• Agar client mil gaya to kaam ko kaise manage karna hai, kaun sa kaam khud karein aur kaun sa kaam kisi se karwayein.
• Client ko kaam kis tariqe se deliver karein.
Payment kis method se leni hai.
• Freelancing ke basic principles kya hain?
Kaun si aisi cheezein hain jo humein freelancing mein kaam aa rahi hongi aur un par hum kaam karein gi:
1. Self-discipline and time management
Freelancing mein hamare upar koi sakht boss nahi hota, hum khud apne boss hote hain. Hum khud ki company start karti hain. For example, agar hum apne naam ki company shuru karein gi to kisi bhi jagah company khol sakti hain, hum ghar baith ke hum khud apne clients lekar aati hain, khud company ko kaam karti hain aur kaam deliver kar rahi hoti hain. Phir aisa hoga ke aheste aheste kaam zyada hota jaye ga, zyada clients aate jayein ge phir hamara kaam itna zyada ho jaye ga ke humein bande hire karne parhein ge jo ke ek solo company se solo yani ke ek shakhs chala raha hai, aap khud ko imagine karo na ke freelancer. Is se hamari better growth hogi aur barhe gi freelancing mindset.
• Kue se chaloge to aaya huwe se seekho. Project to project aaya to long-term sochne ke liye gaye to aap ke paas long-term tariqe se sochiyega nahi, aap proper tariqe se time istemal kar payenge ke kis tarah se kam se kam time istemal karke cheezon ko zyada se zyada banayein. Cheezon ko leverage nahi kar paoge, apni skills ko polish nahi kar paogi is mein is cheez par tawajah deni hai.
• Freelance mein aap ko ek timeline khud set karni hoti hai. Humein kaam ko achhi tarah manage karna aana chahiye. Humein chahiye ke deadlines mis na hon. Kaam proper tariqe se karna chahiye, humein khud seekhna hota hai ke kaun sa kaam kis time mukammal hai aur saara kaam kab tak karna hai.
2. Client communication
Post wala communication aur waise hi hamari daily life mein person life communication bohot important hai. Daily life mein yeh hamare bohot kaam aata hai.
• Freelancing skills ke liye hamari communication strong karni hai. Jab aap strong hain to aap kisi se baat karogi unki baat ko samajhna, unki expectations ko meet karna aur updates dena aham hai.
Bohot saare kaam hamare communication ke bal-boote par chalte hain. Sales calls par ja kar aap clients se kaam le rahe hote hain, salary ya payment ki baat karti hain, communication ke through hi hoti hai. Is liye communication hamare business ka bohot important part hai. Agar communication strong nahi karein gi to jab jab hamara business kisi se baat karega, kisi se communicate karoge to naya naya wahan par galtiyan hoti rahein gi aur wahan par apne liye bohot nuksan karwaye rahein ge business ka. Is liye communication seekho, zindagi par implement karte raho, experience se is ko improve karti raho.
3. Quality work
Number 3 par, aap ki ankhein aisi honi chahiye yaani aap ka conscious brain aisa hona chahiye jo quality dekhe, aur aap ko hamesha apne work ka best dena chahiye. Chahe project chota ho ya bada, quality ka farq nahi aana chahiye.
• Quality achhi honi chahiye. Bohot saare freelancers is tarah sochte hain aur un ki poori zindagi isi shoor mein guzar jati hai ke client humein paise zyada de ga to hi achha kaam karein ge, jab ke jaisa naya kaam ho, agar aap achha kaam anjam ke dein gi to hi client aap ko zyada paise de ga.
4. Consistency and Commitment
Freelance ke liye consistency aur hamari commitment kaafi zaroori hai. Aap ko har project ko poori dedication ke sath karna chahiye.
• Aisa nahi ke aaj ek din kaam kar ke ek din nahi karti, kabhi project par kuch bhi nahi kar rahi, kuch manage nahi kar rahi ho. To is tarah aap ka freelancing ka jo poora business hai woh poora khatam ho jata hai. Jaise traditional job mein ek manager yaad dila de ke yeh chota sa kaam hai, is ne 9 to 5 finish kar diya, lekin aap ko yahan sab kuch khud karna hai. Client ko khud unhein khud ko dekhna hai, humein khud ko hi batana hai ke aaj itna kaam karna hai aur rukna nahi hai. Is liye jo freelancer sote hain woh poora poora din hi kaam kar rahe hote hain, jab un ka business start hota hai. Tab woh is ko sustain karti hain to woh cheezon ko balance karti hain, aur aaram aaram se apna lifestyle dobara normal kar leti hain.
• Yeh jism bilkul pagal hai, freelancing ke andar agar aap late night jaag rahe ho to is ka business bhi hai. Aap ko consistency ke upar aap ka goal aap ke paas hona chahiye ke bachi apni is ki pyari si neend ho, saari namazein proper ho rahi hon, bilkul time to family, peaceful aisi ho, koi dimaghi sar dard na ho, koi tension na aayi ho, kaam ko enjoy kar rahe hain, achhe paise ban rahe ho aur apni family ke sath reh rahe hon.
5. Portfolio and Feedback
Apne kaam ka portfolio banana aur client ka feedback lena zaroori hai kyunki yeh aap ko naye clients dila sakta hai.
Agar freelancing mein aap ko koi bole yeh kaam kar ke do, koi kahe nahi, main kehta hoon bolo kyun karoon, is ki kya logic hai ke woh kaam karne se kaun sa masla solve hoga, kya result aaye ga, kaam ko jab samjha karo.
Jab bhi client aap se portfolio maangta hai to is ki logic samjho woh kyun maang raha hai. Achha, ab ek sawal aata hai ke agar aaj tak main ne kaam kiya hi nahi hai, ya main ne kaam kiya huwa hai par mere paas portfolio nahi hai? To phir hum kya karein? Hum is tarah se client ko bolenge ke hum aap ko ek trial de dete hain, jo trial bilkul free hoga. Agar is tarah hum client ko bolenge to client bilkul sukoon mein aa jaye ga aur humein apna kaam de de ga.
• Waqtan-fawaqtan apna portfolio improve karte raho. Clients se feedback lete raho. Portfolio hamesha important hota hai, portfolio ko dikhane ka tariqa important hota hai. Aap ki koshish yeh honi chahiye ke aap relevant client portfolio dikhao, kam se kam is se koshish karo jo dikha rahe ho woh behtareen ho aur jo pehle ki hui hai.
• Teesri cheez yeh hai ke client ko testimonials dikhao. Aam tor par hum jo kaam kar rahe hote hain, sales lekar aana, phir is ko trial karwane ke baad client ko close karna yani ke woh hamara client ban jaye. In sab cheezon ke peeche jo main cheez hoti hai woh yeh ke client ko hum ne bharosa dilana hai ke woh sahi jagah par hai. "Main time par aap ka kaam kar ke doon gi, aap ki zindagi mein aasani paida karoon gi, aap ko main khud updates doon ga." To yeh saari cheezein ghum-phir ke batani parti hain.
6. Networking or relationship building
Yeh bohot important hai. Freelancing ke andar yeh aap ki har jagah help kar raha hoga. Clients ke sath-sath baki logon ke sath bhi networking karni chahiye jo hamari field ke hain, taake humein naye kaam aur opportunities mil sakein.
7. Negotiation Skills
Apne kaam se baat kar ke is se faida uthana, yeh bohot important hai. Misaal ke tor par, agar aap video editor hain to aap ko apne rates ke sath negotiation karna aana chahiye, taake aap apni value ke mutabiq price le sakein. Agar negotiation achhi ho jaye to aap apne business ke liye bohot se clients close kar sakti hain.
8. Continuous Learning
Freelancing mein aap ko hamesha naye trends aur skills seekhne ki zaroorat banti hai taake aap apne field mein competitive rahein. Agar aap baqi cheezein seekhein gi to humein apna business is tarah se karna hai ke hum khud ko behtar feel karwa sakein aur business good chal sake.
9. Financial Management
Freelancers ko apni income aur expenses ko manage karna seekhna hota hai. Budgeting aur taxes ka khayal rakhna bhi zaroori hota hai. Hum jo bhi kamayein, us ka sahi hisab rakhna hamari zimmedari hai taake hamara business smooth chal sake.
10. Work-life Balance
Ek freelancer ke liye work aur life ka balance maintain karna mushkil ho sakta hai, lekin yeh zaroori hai taake hamari productivity aur mental health achhi ho. Work-life balance bohot zaroori hai. Agar koi seedhe tarah work-life balance nahi kar pa raha, to ek din aur ek raat mein hamara saara sukoon aur health kharab ho sakti hai. Is liye humein apne kaam aur personal life ke darmiyan ek clear boundary rakhni chahiye.
