Everything I know about freelancing

Billing a daily rate allows you to avoid wasting time tracking time, and makes it a lot easier to focus on 1 project at a time. “You get what you pay for” applies to freelancers as well, which is why large companies will prefer larger, established agencies even though they cost a lot. There are freelancers and consultants making $3,000+ per day doing basic marketing consulting, building simple websites and CRUD apps, or configuring servers – stuff that you could do, too.
