Starting freelance in UX/UI Design with limited experience
Here’s what I would do:
1) Get experience, FAST
Here's how:
- Reach out to your network (friends, family, FB groups, LinkedIn)
- Offer your service for cheap or FREE
- Get testimonials after work is complete
- Try to experiment with the UX process as much as possible and repeat
2) Build your freelance website
- Add work to your freelance portfolio to show good work that you’ve done
- Charge relatively low at the beginning and increase you prices slightly with every new client
3) Ask for referrals
- Once you’ve had clients that are happy with your work
- Ask them to refer their friends or some that needs design
4) Try other techniques to get clients
- Ads
- Cold DMs and emails
- Companies looking for a part time designer
