Thank you!
this is fantastic. thank you so much for this comment
What Leon says is the truth. Once you have these skills you don't worry about getting work. Your only worry becomes finding a good place to work or to do the work that you find interesting. I left a full time job for personal life reasons in 2020 and decided to take a break from work. I then decided 6 months in that I do need some work but not full time. I got a 100% remote contract job within two weeks at a very nice place that has been accommodating to my schedule. I can't think of any other field that has this much flexibility in the type of work and the ability to do remote work.
That sounds amazing claudette, Congrats!
How did you find the remote contract job.
@@Sevaleries I will preface this by saying I have 20 years of experience in my field so I am not entry level. I had turned on the I am open to contact by recruiters in my profile and I noted that I was looking for remote part time work. Not all contacts were for remote/part time but being contacted on a regular basis was nice for the ego. Once your in this field, if you need work you wont have to look very long.
cant wait to get to this point
@@Chocolatinhermoso Same!
Leon gives us the path, the tools, and the knowledge and it’s only class 15! I straight up love 100Devs.
catchup crew strong. This class really engerized me! lets go get!
Just happened on this site and am blown away with this guy. To give this info for free to help people is just awesome. I have done HTML and CSS but never thought of marketing it to do for clients. But this presentation alone is worth a lot of money. Years of experience given away with imagination from a brilliant man. Thank you! Wow!
I missed this class a month ago and can't believe I'm just now watching it. Incredibly valuable info about freelancing.
This class give me wings!!! Your the best Leon
Oh man. Incredible levels of info you are providing
Leon thank you so much for for everything you have been sharing!
Absolutely loved this class! Thank you a lot!
This bootcamp is invaluable.
I feel exposed all of a sudden; Thanks Leon for the eye opener; Thank you so so much
These videos are a life saver, really trying to change my life
This video is worthy of more attention!
A great class. So much to do now...
Checking in!
I am really broke 😢 and this vidoe is giving just hope that I can continue coding while making some money as freelancing 😢
Same here
Wow! Just wow!
LETSS GOOO CLASS 15erss!! WOOOOOO WE ARE MAKING IT BOI
You the man!
here I come class 15, almost 3week in and I already learn some html css java basic(I do read the homework Leon assign) and my typing speed from 33 wpm > 46 wpm.
just discover something call Full Stack Dev Roadmap, still a long long way, but we all know it's a marathon.
Catchup crew in the building!
Thanks Leon
CatchUp Crew💪 check-in
wow, there's something about this class...LFG! 🔥
I almost always prefer the water starter. One of my friends made me a Piplup plush that I use as my "duck" :D
I got got my first client by sharing what I have been on social media! FB!! They reached out to me after I had been posting what I have been working on!!
@2:32:40 I could relate to that right now. It really hurts going through that.
#catchupcrew Checking in. Thank you, Leon!
WOOOOOOOOOHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is this landing a freelance job is forthcoming? I don't know but the tech space is quite saturated atm. But I will give it a try. Thank you.
Thank you leon
I watched the Pokemon anime before I played the games. For that reason I am a fire starter main for lyfe, that Charmander story. Hold up let me get a tissue.
Dead links for the twitter accounts in the slides .. what happens ^_^ ?
(In Pauly Shore voice) Yeeeeeaaahhh Budddddy!
Lesgetit!
👍👍👍 been following these courses for awhile now, what would I put on a resume if I'm self-taught?
Don't know if this is too late for a reply but You said you have been following these courses for a while now.... while if I was in your shoes, I will include #100Devs in the 2nd section of your "experience" in the resume....after all it's free and you have been following
@@onosemuodeikuesiri7620 thanks but I've finally joined since then
@@RiFi357congrats!
hi @hotish82 . i am also a self taught learner like you .could you plz tell me your story.
Does anyone know a good reccuring monthly payment system that I can apply to my client's monthly maintenance & SEO fee? I think setup an automate payment withdrawal will be much beneficial long term
Quickbooks Online and Square can both do this. There are probably other options as well.
#catchupcrew
hey Leon, any way to access the slido questions and answers? the code is not active anymore. thanks!

Pandadoc isn't free :( Templates are not free on their site either
The link in the slides is a direct link. Free and doesn't even require an account.
@@learnwithleon Thank you Leon !
When do you run your boot camps?
I would like to join
It’s every Tuesday and Thursday at 6:30 pm est time. You can join with the links in the video description. There’s also a catch up crew that can help you with starting out in the discord
Unfortunately I'm from india and i only got $15 client today :(
It's a start though! If you can't find people in your area start looking on google maps for businesses and checking out there website. Call/ come prepared with a list of issues you noticed with their website and WHY it's important to fix it. It's pretty effective if you can find an issue thats actually costing them customers like slow loading times, broken pages, unclear information, very old website, etc.
how do you get clients btw ??
I got a $50 client lol
half a mili kids... that's right. That class brough into half a mil.
Huh
food for algo
1:14:26 lol
i'm 15 minutes in, and i wonder if there will actually be legal advice or not. When people say this they still usually give advice 🧐
First viewer
anyone looking for a coding partner
I'm a month behind, still down ?
Lots of good information shared here. Is there a document or something where all links/resources shared in this video are written down, so I don't have to skip through the video to find them?
However, this video committed the cardinal sin of that all these freelancing videos do: they assume you have a network of people dying to pay you to build websites. And if you don't have a network, just magically become a master of something. Yeah, sure...
Sorry, this video really does have a lot of excellent advice and resources, but it fails in the most important part, how to land a client for people like me who are outside of small town USA and don't have a network.
If you've watched any of the other videos, you would know that is his #1 thing he tells everyone to do. Network, network, NETWORK. If you haven't watched them, then you should.
Most of the emphasis was place on cold calling/door to door If I recall. I don't know if you watched the video all the way through but somewhere along the lines (at least I believe it's this one) he goes over cold calling.
