Thank you so much for this and all your content! I've been wanting to freelance for a long time now but the process to start makes me really anxious and your channel has been a huge help!
Hello Deya, I really liked the way you've explained in this video on how to create a portfolio in Notion. As a PM, I've been searching for one such video and then stopped by your channel. I'm very happy to find this on the right time. Thank you so much. Right now, I'm subscribing to your channel.
Thank you so much for this! I have been struggling with creating my portfolio and it overwhelms me a lot but you explained and showed us how to do it in a smart and simple way. I admire your works! Looking forward to learn more from youuu.
Hi Deya, thank you so much.I already received the portfolio template and watched your free series.You're so kind, your channel has been a huge help for aspiring freelancers.
HI Deya, Thank you so much for sharing these resources with all of us. I'm so excited! I literally just finished my portfolio and I'm excited to start prospecting new clients for the year, tomorrow. Also, I hope you don't mind but I've recommended two other friends starting their own business to check out your channel. Trying to pay it forward! Thanks again. 😁✨
You are a very awesome individual. Thanks for this. It really helped! It wouldn't occur to a lot of people to duplicate it in their own workspace. That's the only part you missed lol. This platform needs more amazing people like you.
Thank you for the tips for landing a client and making a portfolio. This is very informative for me. Im done watching this video i will go check out your other videos
Deya, loved this video (as always), Cannot wait to use the template for my portfolio. I am going to take you up on the offer to review my help statement. Here is it: "I help busy female entrepreneurs innovate their systems and operations, organize the chaos and manage their teams so they can dedicate more time to being the creative force behind their business." Your advice is appreciated. Thanks.
Hi Teri! Thanks so much for the kind words. I like your 'I help' statement! I think it's very clear. An interesting question for you to think on could be: Is this in the voice of my target audience? Are these terms/words/phrases that my ideal clients use to describe their problems and deepest desires? This will help you hone your 'I help' statement as you talk more and more with your ideal clients on calls, via email, etc. :)
@@MyNameIsDeya Thanks Deya. I'll keep those questions in mind and I hone in more on my ideal client. I've been revising my 'I help' statement as I've been going through the application process and realizing which jobs really appeal to me and which ones don't.
I was wondering about putting together a portfolio when you are just getting started and don't have experience to put into it? Can you make a video about this?
I would love to get your advice on my I help statement, "I help Architects present their ideas as Impressive illustrations so that they impress their clients in giving the project to them."
This video was exactly what I needed to begin my journey as a tech writer. However, your video caters more to graphic designers than writers. Do you have any tips to help me design a portfolio for my field?
Hi Ikedife! So glad to hear that! There is a link to the free template in the description below - all the best on setting up your portfolio! Let me know if you have any more questions :)
I'm struggling to define my niche and 'I help' statement. I used to work as a video editor with small production companies, but now I work solo after moving. I’m not comfortable planning or filming shoots on my own and am having trouble connecting with local production companies. I need clients who already have footage or are open to using stock footage since it's tough to explain how much work goes into creating original content.
@@Rebecca-qg8pb yeah. Or create a true one but showcase what you can offer and no need to mention where you applied it. because I came from a school where I used those skills? also in an office where I used those skills. Cuz I have skills for real.
@@michailajordinneponce7128 yes showcase what u can offer, people will hire u to help them not because of status, if they see u know what u are doing they would hire u because they want to get their money worth. But if they ask there is nothing wrong saying it is a sample copy showcasing your skills, they are hiring u for the skills after all, not the clients u worked for. Hope this helps 😊
Hi Deya, this was such a helpful video; thank you! I have a few questions if you don't mind. 1. I am confused about what to put as my title next to my name. I currently work a 9-5 in the PR industry, but I want to start freelancing as a content writer for both long and short-format content on the side for now. Please suggest something that would be appropriate! 2. Please review my help statement: "I help businesses and entrepreneurs with different forms of content as per their requirements so they can have consistency in their content and ensure well-researched content for their audience." Thank you!
Hey Meghna! I think Content Writer is perfectly okay to start! Once you discover your target clients/industry/niche, then you can get more specific on your title. If you want to write for a specific platform, I would already clarify that (e.g. RUclips Script Writer, etc) -- but if you're open to all platforms, I think leaving it as Content Writer is clear. Your "I help" statement is a good start! It is a bit long, and it doesn't tell me what's in it for the client beyond the content writing. Why do they want good content? How does it benefit their business to have well-researched and consistent content output? And can you make your statement more succinct? (E.g. I don't think 'as per their requirements' is necessary - that's kind of assumed when you work with a client.)
@@MyNameIsDeya Thank you for your inputs! I'll shorten my "I help" statement and try to include something the client can benefit from what I offer. Thank you once again! :)
Hey Deya! I loved getting to learn how to use Notion by adapting this template to my content. But I've got one question -- Is there any way to optimize the view for mobile? It looks great on my laptop. But not so cool on my mobile.
My takeaways are:
- 2 calls of action (the book 20 mins free consultation) is really nice
- Different separate portfolios for different roles / tasks.
Thank you so much for this and all your content! I've been wanting to freelance for a long time now but the process to start makes me really anxious and your channel has been a huge help!

As a beginner though I just came from a regular office job. How could I make my portfolio? Taking a class? I need money right now.
Create a fake one 😊
