Many people are immersed in the wave of the Freelance for various reasons, seeking independence, flexibility, availability and / or increase their income.

It is an excellent alternative to apply in various projects and expand your professional horizon since you can work on several projects at once with a good schedule of scheduling tasks.

The big question that usually arises is, but how can I start working in this modality if I have never done it before?

Here are some basic steps to start your career as a freelancer:

1) Establish the services you will provide

Beyond offering a service related to your career, think and take advantage of the skills that always pondered in your circle of friends and that you had not had the opportunity to exploit.

Think about what you do best, do you know how to write, do you have good diction, are you orderly, do you like the editing of images? Imagine working in an area that you never thought you were but that you always liked and that was not enough taking economic advantage.

Put your batteries, juice your skills and creativity and wipe out the Freelance world.

Once you have defined the service you are going to offer, you can proceed with the next step.

2. Create your job portfolio

Keep in mind all the skills you have, even if you have done work only as help or collaboration or as a hobby; all add up when it comes to collecting samples and photos of those that have been most significant and in which you can demonstrate the quality of your work and the experience with which you have. This portfolio of jobs will be of great help when it comes to promoting yourself.

3. Create your professional profile.

Connect your profile to all possible social networks Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and associate it with an email account that serves you especially to keep work communications.

NOTE: even if you are really sexy please do not use emails like sexybear@gmail.com that for friends is fine, but not for a person who would be hiring you to help you to realize him projects.

Place your portfolio online in all these sites so you can share it and your potential customers can see it.

4. Send your proposals.

Maybe you feel a little embarrassed for not knowing how to start, but do not worry, think about what you would say to the people you talk to by phone, skype, email, etc., personalize as much as you can so that the recipient does not feel that he is reading a chain of mails, direct messages are always more effective.

For example:

"My name is Fulan @, I want to present you the new service that I will be putting at your disposal: (describe your proposal). You can visit my website: (link) and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me, I have X years experience in this area and I will be collaborating in your projects. Thank you very much.

Be concise and direct in your offer, think about how the services you provide can help the person you are addressing, creativity is very important but do not extend too much.

Decide to make the most of your potential and you can achieve great goals.

Contar con equipos virtuales y saber manejarlos va a transformase en una ventaja competitiva. Y si no empiezan ya, ocurrirá como ocurrió con otros ejemplos de herramientas o modelos de adopción masiva (nadie tenía Facebook hasta que todo el mundo estaba en Facebook, por ejemplo).

El cambio va a ser tan abrupto que no van a poder adaptarse. ¡Empiecen ahora, probando!

Tómenlo como una práctica; esto es una habilidad nueva, para todos.

El consejo es que empiecen ya, jugando, practicando, experimentando.

¡Porque aprender lleva tiempo! Además es clave que entrenen a sus equipos.

Y entrénense como líderes de equipos virtuales, porque las habilidades que hay que tener son totalmente distintas: tienen que ser muy buenos comunicando, ser claros con lo que tienen en la cabeza.

Quien logra liderar un equipo remoto termina siendo mucho mejor líder de equipos tradicionales o presenciales, que viceversa.

A website that is visited by people from all around the world should give people comfort when it comes to scrolling thorugh it, don't let languages be a barrier.

Ujobs needs to be able to offer its visitors that comfort and that's why I'm writing this article; to help them make corrections and give them advices.

This time I'll dedicate myself to check the Home Page, let's start.

1. From the home page: We will refund money, if job won't be completed or you won't be satisfied by quality of completed job. Worker will receive money only when customer will accept job completion.

It should be like this: We will refund the money if the job is not done or if you're not satisfied by the results. The worker will receive the money only when the customer accepts the finished job.

Grammar is very important in communication, do not forget that.

2. From the Home page: You need money

choose a request you can complete

It should be like this: You need money?

Choose a job you can get done.

3. From the home page: We guarantee that you will receive money just after job completion.

It should be like this: We guarantee that you will get paid once you finish the job.

4. From the home page: For buyers of products and services

We implemented secure transaction for protection of your money, when you buy products or order services from unknown people. If you want to buy product or service through secure transaction you may visit Catalog of services or Catalog of products

It should be like this: We implemented secure transaction to protect your money when you buy products or order services from unknown people. If you want to buy products or order services through secure transaction visit Catalog of services or Catalog of products.

What I have seen the most in the home page is a bad grammar and that needs to be fixed so people can understand what they're reading.

This article was based in my reviews of the home page in english.

Mobile phones Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S differ from their predecessors with an interesting set of functions. The Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S collection is equipped with a future camera that can record objects in motion with incredible accuracy.

By the time of the debut of the Mi MIX 2S mobile phone, scheduled for March 27, Xiaomi has already released three new teaser images demonstrating the functions of the AI camera. The photo shows the hands at the time of the cotton.

Also, the Chinese company introduced the capabilities of Snapdragon 845 SoC in Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S using a video teaser. The photo of clapping hands, placed in the social network Weibo, shows the videographic features of the new phone from Xiaomi.

Fans of the Xiaomi brand will receive a new device with support for 4K video recording at a frame rate of 60fps or 720p at 480fps (Slow-mo). This, of course, can not compete with the advantages of the Samsung Galaxy S9, which allows you to record 720p at a frequency of 960fps. Nevertheless, the Slow-mo option on the mobile phone Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S will make this device very competitive, for example, compared to the flagship Android, including Pixel 2 XL, which has 720p at 240fps.

The clap of hands depicted in the photo is probably indicative of accelerated autofocus work in the Mi MIX 2S lineup, compared to last year's Xiaomi Mi MIX 2 phones. Recently, information about the Sony IMX363 image sensor on Mi MIX 2S has appeared. This sensor was last seen from the ZenFone 5Z with a 12-megapixel resolution and auto-focus function (PDAF).

One of the latest teasers demonstrates no less important advantages of the AI camera. Improved pattern recognition and color rendering.

According to current rumors, Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S will go on sale with a 5.99-inch display and will have up to 8 GB of RAM, a dual 12-megapixel camera, 256 GB of internal memory and a 4400 mAh battery. It is assumed that the smartphone will be equipped with wireless charging and a fingerprint sensor.

China - a huge market with huge opportunities for businesses as it is a market with millions of competitors, in order to succeed, you need the knowledge and data.

Yuan Yue (Victor)

Leading business TV show "Brainstorm." №1 among business talk show in Asia in the Chinese language. Vice president of China Association of Marketing Research, and President of the Beijing Consulting Association. President of Horizon Research Consultancy Group consulting group. He has published over 400 research papers. He has a doctorate in philosophy and sociology at Peking University and Harvard University.

State - Investor №1 in China. The Chinese government plays an important role in managing the economy in the form of public investment. The contribution of public investment of China's GDP grew by more than 50% last year, which means that the Chinese market is controlled by the government, not market power. This makes China's economic development other than economic development in European countries, and this should be considered when thinking about how to do business in China. Public investment plays a very important role in managing the economy.

Traditionally, Chinese culture was linked to respect for their elders and the elderly had the power in the family. Now, because of the one-child policy, the kid became a center of the family. This is similar to the phenomenon of pandas; rare species will have more energy and more resources. The same thing happens in a family when you have only one child, the family will do everything possible for him.

Find out what they want children! If you want to succeed in the Chinese market, you need to figure out what the kids want. The main driving force of consumption is in the hands of the younger generation, and they have many desires. In addition to the cars and apartments, they are actively buying fashion products on the Internet. Remember, most of these children have two parents, four grandparents, sometimes even eight great-grandparents, and they all help children.

The younger generation - this generation internet: they are friends, gather information, buy things and pay online. In China, 50 million running online stores. online shopping transactions in 2016 amounted to $ 3 trillion, a 48% increase compared with the previous year.

China - a good pilot market. Western businesses must be aware that they should not blindly follow all the business rules of the Western world, if they want to succeed in China. In the Chinese market, there are many opportunities for foreign businessmen, but you have to be innovative.

The big difference between the Dutch and the Chinese - that's how we look at our cell phone. From morning to evening the Chinese "glued" to their cell phones. For the Chinese, it is a constant source of information to which they have access 24 hours a day. Therefore, to succeed in business in China today, you need to be very fast; otherwise you can not provide what you need to market, because the market is constantly changing.

One of the most interesting phenomena of the market in China: children dominate the needs of the family, and now they play the role of decision-makers. Companies need to focus their marketing efforts on this group.

Another important factor is the rate of growth of mobile e-commerce, which changes the behavior of consumers. These rapid changes and openness of the Chinese consumer to make the new Chinese market is very interesting for innovative experimental things.

If you will remember that in the Chinese market success is based on an innovative approach, then China can open new horizons for your business.

Write requests, which Russian products you want to sell in China. I will give free advice on the sale of long term in China.

Hello,My name is Mike and I am a realtor. It sounds like your ad to the club of Alcoholics Anonymous. Well it is a joke :)I want to share a story with you about how I decided to start working with China and what difficulties were waiting for me on the way.

In 2016, one of my friends working for the developer of Manhattan, said that Chinese are increasingly buying luxury real estate (luxury real estate). And now he has more than 30% of customers are customers from China.

It was then that I needed to prepare children for college and to save money is not particularly out. And I began to think of ways out of this situation. To stay afloat, he decided as soon as possible to try to sell a few apartments to interested parties from China.

I found relatively quickly and the interpreter made a web-site in China, launched a social media advertising Facebooke, Google and waited. In the two months I spent on advertising dollars and 3000 have not received a single application.

It was a blow for the family budget. I was shocked.

Well, my friend from school, John knew the owner of a Chinese restaurant on 163 street, I asked John to introduce us. And in the evening we arrived for dinner to Shanley (Shènglì). He was very good-natured man, and readily agreed to help.

And that's what he said:

First, it turns out, Google and Facebook is not a global company - referred to social networks not presented in China. State Government has set up special protection firewall to restrict access from the outside - in China it is called China net. And most interesting is that go to my site representatives from China can not - it is prohibited Fire wall https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Firewall

To circumvent blocked, you must obtain a certificate of ICP https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICP_license

Or another way - to offer services only to Chinese sites. Ideal - site development in China and its placement on the Chinese host. But, unfortunately, Shanley was not familiar in this area and help it absolutely could not.

Shanley also told me that in different parts of the world settled unequal treatment to the colors and features of the site, its navigation. That is, website, developed in America, it will be inconvenient for Chinese users (if you're interested, read about the features of the Chinese culture and the importance of understanding the mental peculiarities for sale in China).

I began to actively look for a company that could put me in touch with the Chinese market and came across an organization Welcome to China https://ujobs.me/en/account/profile/show/29232 With which we began to cooperate.

Since, by the time free money I do not have the entire advertising budget was spent, I ordered the placement of ads in Chinese klassifaydov type Craigslist. And repost them on social networks. And after a few days I started getting the first requests from clients.

But here there was another problem: All applications received in Chinese. I'll explain in a second article, "How to Set Up Chinese lidami and why it is more convenient to work with a call center and sent to Lida them."

I had to find translators and, of course, at first I lost a lot of good applications because of the low response time and the difference in the speed interval of 12 hours.

In general, 3 months later I signed the first contract for the sale of apartments, concluding his first major deal.

The wife was happy that I was able to get a very good percentage, and this year we will send our older son to college.

But only the beginning, because I have two other daughters are growing up ...)
