I and other seasoned digital marketers would argue that having an email list is much more profitable to your business than having thousands of followers on social media.

I got a message on my Facebook page from someone today and the message read “Hey bro, Congratulations on your endorsement. Would you be willing to share some information about the process and evidence with me because I’m looking to apply as well. Thanks” That was a message from someone who connected with me on Facebook and maybe because he saw my pinned post about my endorsement or one of my videos where I talked about it. — The guy is from Egypt, so I decided to create this detailed and lengthy post about How I Got and How You Can Get A UK Tech City Exceptional Talent Visa Endorsement.
How about I start this post with defining what Freelancing actually means, so we can get on the same page. A Freelancer is a self-employed individual with a valuable skill who doesn’t have to commit to a single or long-term employer. They work independently for several different companies or clients from the comfort their home or any place of their choosing and mostly from their computer! Notice the part where I said with a “Valuable Skill” ? it is very important to have a skill first before thinking of freelancing, if you don’t have a skill that is valuable and you know people are making money with, you cannot be a freelancer! (what would you offer people as your service?)
A little background about me and my freelance journey. I started very young – at the age of 19 – immediately I was done with Uni, I chose Web and Graphics design as my preferred field, I have worked with a bunch load of clients (both good and bad), I have been able to build my freelance business that was started on my Grand-Mother’s dining table into a Sought-after Creative design agency in London (I’ll give you the link to my agency’s website at the end of the post), I currently mentor, coach and guide other freelancers (and newbies) on how to become more effective, get the right skills and charge what they deserve.
No matter how you define success, it can be a daunting journey and sometimes a hard destination to get to. It takes more than just wishful thinking to achieve success, it takes passion, persistence, confidence, smart goal setting, value adding skills and more to achieve your goals and to actually recognize success when you’ve achieved it.

Hey!! In this chilled and laid back video, I talk about topics ranging from me deciding to quit music to start a career in Tech, how I said “Fuck you” to everyone’s opinion about how my life should turn out to be and how one of the best things we can do as humans is to pursue what makes us happy instead of living according to what people expect from us. You owe yourself happiness.
Enjoy!
