Learning how to survive the everchallenging curve

There is the advantage of working at my own pace & it determines how much I will earn per period. Therefore the harder I work in terms of sales volumes the more returns I get. Problem is overstraining myself to get the next sale. Sometimes people are just not interested in the product or just do not have the money to buy. They will let you talk then tell you that are not interested or direft you to someone else. It is however rewarding to persist and come up with new ways to get business.

Pros: Working at your own pace and determining your own targets, very rewarding when those are achieved
Cons: Disappointing results & the need to continue working in order to meet targets.

Excellent opportunities

I was retrenched December 2016. I could not stay stagnant and decided to be a freelancer till current. Ive been working for different companies and projects from a month to month basis dependant on my availability. Ive worked normal hours and work days, alot of challenges due to certain deadlines of projects. Awesome short relationships with co-workers as the environments we work in is very supportive. I've learned that each moment spent with different people, different cultures and personalities are a blessing and we are never to old to learn from each other. I enjoy meeting new people, learning new internal systems and resolving the issues to accomplish success in a project. Challenges will be everywhere you go especially in a new environment, it is how you perceive, retrieve and persue any task given to you.

Pros: Permanency
Cons: Stability

Rough Seas

Most of the time I have during my role as a freelance developer, I spend on canvassing new prospects. The SME sector is my main source of clientele, so CRM is central to my operations. I have since moved on into securing reputable paths of certification, more specifically, the Microsoft Certified Solutions Developer path. So far I have succeeded in obtaining my status as a Microsoft Certified Professional and looking to apply my skills whilst growing my Professional portfolio.

Pros: Great for experimentation
Cons: Scarcity of clientele
