Why New Freelancers Should Be Keeping Up with Technology
It’s ok to use what’s worked, but ignore the new trends at your own peril
Blink, and you’ll miss the latest tech trend.
Usually, that would be no biggie. I mean, who cares about the latest app or the newest or fastest thinga-ma-jig. You’ve got writing to do…am I right?
But the fact is, technology can be your best friend and ally.
Not taking the time to learn the technology your potential clients or competitors are using is a big mistake that can lead to failure. Technology adds convenience for your customers and your freelance business overall. Pretty much every part of your business can be improved with technology.
Here are four important reasons why new and experienced freelancers should be keeping up with and using technology.
To improve communication, products, and services
Proper communication is key to understanding your target audience and producing the value they need or want.
If you ignore good communication, you are only creating a poor experience for your target audience. Obviously, this does not support the growth of your business.
