Back to freelance...

[I.M.Shane]

I'm back to working on my own doing freelance design work. It's nice to be back in charge of what I'm doing but really scary trying to find design clients. I had forgotten how hard it could be to build up your client list. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm working on my portfolio now so I may have some thing new and interesting to show people. Recently I've just been giving perspective clients links to sites I designed. Is this bad form? I'm wondering if I should scrap the idea of giving out the links and waiting til I get my portfolio back up before I start hitting up any body for work...
What sayeth the board?


Thanks,
Shane
