The freelancer economy is booming (59 million Americans did freelance work in the past 12 months)!

Want to maximize your revenue? Do these 4 things to start building your 6-figure freelancing career:

1. Stop saying yes to everything. Find your niche and build a portfolio that reflects your expertise. Specialists make more money than generalists.

2. Set rates that reflect your value. Train your clients to think about impact and value rather than time committed. If you can complete a specialized task quickly (writing copy, designing a website, etc.) you should be setting project fees, not hourly rates.

3. Choose the right invoicing tools. You'll lose thousands of dollars every year invoicing through platforms like PayPal. Freelancers should look for instant, fee-free payment solutions like Hopscotch.

4. Productize your business. Packaging services and deliverables at set prices will help you consistently hit revenue goals and streamline the client onboarding process.
