LESSON 6 · The Freelance Leap
Keep It Alive
Refresh your portfolio monthly: add new work, drop tired pieces, swap in fresh testimonials. A stale portfolio reads as an inactive freelancer — clients quietly lose trust when the newest case study is over a year old.
Traffic comes from links, not luck. Post your best case study to a forum, a newsletter, or LinkedIn. Each placement is a new doorway back to your work that keeps paying out long after.
