Now what...
Well, nothing. I didn't expect things to happen overnight so that's fine and in reality, I am not taking on any old job, they need to be interesting. The main thing though is the client needs to have a great idea which I'd love to help bring to reality.
I still have my corporate clients and my SaaS side projects so the freelance work would be a bonus.
I've built a few platforms from my own ideas and in the meantime while I wait to help someone else I have had my thinking cap on and have some new ideas.
"Build, measure, learn" is my next idea which I will be working on in parallel with my current projects. It's going to be a tool which will help those that have built a SaaS project see how making changes to it can increase (or decrease) sign-ups, sales or any other measurable metric. That's for another post and another day, but work is in progress.
So back to setting up my freelancing side gig...
