    First of all, you didn't say what type of freelance service you're trying to offer. That makes a difference.

    In addition, you didn't mention which platform (or platforms) you are trying to break in on. That could make a difference, too.

    That said, I've been a freelance copywriter for 9 years, so I'll try to give you a few useful tips...

    As a beginner, you should be applying for small jobs/tasks. You need to gain experience, and -- in most cases -- build a portfolio of work.

    Furthermore, you should also be reading and working to improve your skills. Because, if you're really good at something -- and can demonstrate it -- your lack of experience won't matter quite as much.

    One of the biggest problems many beginners have is that they don't do a good job of communicating. When you post a reply to a job, think about what the person posting it wants and needs. Then, explain how you can help them achieve their goal.

    For online jobs, typically, you'll reply via a written response. If you're not great at writing, a simple solution might be to have someone you know check your post before you send it.

    I hope that helps.

    John

    You are a digital marketer who has no idea how to find clients?

    What exactly do you think you have to offer clients if you do not know how to market yourself?
    Signature

    For SEO news, discussions, tactics, and more.

    It may be hard starting off but you may need to build up a clear and up to date portfolio, this will help you get some quality work on the freelance marketplaces.
