Find Your Niche The first step of becoming a freelance engineer is finding your niche. Early on in your career, you might be tempted to take any paying job (and some free gigs too). That’s fine. Don’t turn down a good opportunity because it’s not within your particular area of focus — Try to align your efforts on finding new clients within the field. www.gohyp.com 4
Set Your Rates Before anyone will agree to work with you, they’re going to want to know how much you charge. There are a lot of factors that go into determining your personal rate, like location, experience, and competition. Do some research and find what other studios in your area are charging. Typically, recording is handled hourly. www.gohyp.com 5
Finding Clients Initially it is tough to find freelance engineering jobs. Most engineers do their first few sessions for free in order to build a portfolio. After making a few quality records, build a simple, free website to show them off and allow people to contact you for quotes. Your first clients will be co-workers, acquaintances and friends of friends. You already know them. All you need to do is reach out to them. www.gohyp.com 6
Don’t Give Up It may take you a while to get your first gig. But such is the nature of freelance jobs. You could even consider placing your portfolio on online freelancing portals like Gohyp to increase your chances of getting a gig. www.gohyp.com 7
