I’d love to see a video on structuring a “nomadic”/freelancing web dev development career like you mentioned

[@JavaScriptJolt]

Me too.

[@ErichBaltzellProductions]

@@JavaScriptJolt This please. Going into detail on making a successful freelancing career would be invaluable!

[@ro3843]

Second that

Same tbh

[@iwishirish]

Me too

[@monwar4449]

The timing of this release is crazy, I just signed the contract to work as a freelance dev today

[@MTRAC77437]

I'd like to see more content about how to freelance / go nomad effectively.

[@aneesahthequeen]

😍😍💙💙❤️❤️Hey Stef! So ready for your classes .. just haven’t started b/c I’ve been so busy but I gotta get to it.. ASAP! I’m so ready to get at it!! Thanks for sharing all the great knowledge!❤️❤️❤️

[@cbobka14]

I'd love to see the nomad structure also. Love your videos and have learned a plethora of things from you. Keep up the awesome work.

[@davidisrael5627]

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE MAKE A VIDEO HOW TO STRUCTURE YOUR DAY AS A FREELANCER!!! I just started and am wasting alot of my time!!!!

[@paulnielson7007]

i would love to hear more about the structure of a nomad freelance dev

[@DigitalDesignET]

As always, good advise. I'm hoping you will make a video about how to setup the structure.

[@smm132mordi3]

I think that a workflow video will be grate, specially for the younger guys that have a lot of time and don't use it as efficiently as they could. hope to see that video soon.

[@omarbonilla7771]

Good video Uncle Steff!!! , hope to see the follow up video!!

[@mrwacks4705]

The structure would be of great help to most of us Stef. Thank you.

Great video ! Can you make that video when you talk about organization and structure the day please ? Keep going.

Commenting for the structure of a nomad developer 😊, great stuff!

[@TheLilRussia]

[@DrewNelles]

Great video as always Stefan. Helps greatly with motivation. I’d love to hear your thoughts on structuring as well. Best regards from a Canadian in Hong Kong.

[@damienkodaseet5915]

FREELANCE STRUCTURE EXAMPLE!!! PLEASE!

[@sergepajic6017]

Do put out the video on the structuring the nomad/freelance lifestyle please :)

[@ro3843]

This is a really great video. Mischook doesn't get tons of views always but some of his content is golden.

[@TheExcellentVideoChannel]

As someone that's had a good career as a software dev , went freelance and faceplanted , I'd love to hear your thoughts on structuring yourself. I likened my transitioning experience to a battery hen being let out of it's cage and being completely incompetent at anything but being caged and fed. Thanks for your videos, I always learn something from them.

[@ernestwilliamknowlton4841]

Yes to the video on how to make structure I’m curious how you approach it

[@hussainaltheeb9603]

Thank you Mr stef I am looking forward to learn more from your experience 👍

[@StefanMischook]

You are very welcome

[@batchrocketproject4720]

Great insights as usual Stefan, thanks. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the pros and cons of people partnering with someone else for freelancing. Maybe informally, if the trust is there. I can think of advantages, such as bouncing ideas and problems off each other and pooling efforts on a premium job, but think it might leave scope for a degree of independence most of the time. I suppose also, fear of one's possible weaknesses (for example, how do I find the next contracts?) are lessened when two of you are involved. Were you confident of finding contracts when you started out on your own?

[@jakestewart7079]

If you're going to partner with someone, be completely sure that they're going to be reliable and dependable.

[@joshuastories]

Yeeeeessss please on the roadmap

[@OndrejSojka]

Yes please to a video on structuring my time!

[@michaelfranco387]

Love the video 🖖🏼

[@saadbaig3060]

another great upload. thanks

[@BrendaMichellleTech]

I started freelancing / working as an independent contractor about 2 years ago and I 100% agree with everything. At the moment I'm just questioning wether I prefer to just work 9-5 since it's not so draining. But the pay as a freelancer/contractor is probably double what i would get in an actual full time job 😂 although the benefits of a job are tempting I'm not sure I would give up the freedom of freelancing

[@impactEditHD]

How did you get started doing freelancing? I want to do freelance work on the side while I still have a normal day job.

[@BrendaMichellleTech]

@@impactEditHD I started by sharing on social media (facebook and Instagram) that I was looking for clients and that is how I got my 1st clients then from there word of mouth and content creation. I have a video on my channel where I share a week in my life as a freelancer and I give some tips on how to get clients. Maybe that can be helpful.

[@impactEditHD]

@@BrendaMichellleTech yes, thank you for replying. I will check that video out.

[@frankprit3320]

how much experience did you need for that. thanks

[@yusuf7376]

I would greatly appreciate a video on nomadic/freelance development.

[@jarihillukkala753]

Hi Stef! Thanks for the tips. I was just wondering how would you increase productivity as a freelancer doing web stack projects?

[@ITSecurityNerd]

Definitely want to see that vid. Thanks for proving age ain't nothin but an int.

[@edsaid2032]

Hi Stef. I've got 15 years experience on commission as a financial advisor. With the lockdown in 2020 started on your coding course. Mostly off then on in the beginning so that I could quit my job and become a digital nomad. You're talking to me now, because I quit my job a year ago, and the online WordPress stores I built while learning to code have carried me thus far financially. I would really appreciate help with setting up some structure. Just got comfortable with Laravel. What is your advice for me to have your level of freedom. Thank you... SAAS ideas loading :)

Not really a freelance person would much prefer contracts. If you haven't spoken about that yet, could you do a video on contracts?

[@jovan_script]

Uncle Stef, you're the boss!

[@_jmeg_3436]

My only problem is client acquisition. Had a few projects I did over the past year, and was given some leads but they all sucked.

[@dgourdine50]

Video on structure please

[@theuntetheredminimalist]

Great tips💡Sounds a bit like Scrum Agile lifestyle - organized/ positive/ flexible/ structured/ self disciplined and adaptable ✨

[@williamdevonshire356]

would like to see nomad framework also

[@speedhaak]

10 years being self employed and this year has been tough... Thinking hard about maybe working for the man especially now that both myself and my business partner have kids we can't manage the hours we used to pull without huge burnout. But then, who wants to be working 24/7 anyway. We had some really good years but yeah the web dev environment here at the moment is shifting. Great video Stefan, enjoyed your insight.

[@georgemartyn5268]

hope you won't mind this hypothetical question - how well do you think you'd fare in the current environment if you didn't have kids?

[@speedhaak]

​@@georgemartyn5268 Hey George, honestly (and this is just my opinion) if you have the free time and the lack of responsabilities then the world is your oyster as far as coding is concerned. It also depends on your personality, I tend to get extremely into things that I find interesting - so when I first started out and discovered technologies like CSS, Bootstrap, WordPress, Javascript, jQuery, HTML, Php ect I would spend days buried in it. These days though, I can't do that as much. I spent the last three nights this week working until 10:30pm but really, that's not healthy even if you are interested in the problem you're trying to solve. Trying to keep up with the industry is a young man's game in my opinion. Everything moves so fast, its nuts. This past month or two have been very good to our company though and we have completed some big projects. We had to swallow our pride and employ a 'work smart not hard' enthos though that ultimatley means custom design/development isn't realistic for us so we focus wholesale on WordPress now with Elementor, not even ACF coding which means I don't actually code much now, just build things out in a lego fashion. This to me is a little disheartening but it is what it is, making money is the priority now not beavering away at code like I used to :( That's just life though and I wouldn't change a thing, my kids are everthing and brighten up my day, every day. Hope your journey is going well :)

[@chrisclayton584]

I ordered a used copy of "the naked ape" from ebay and its on its way. Why do you recommend this book?

[@straight6604]

How about partnering, 'co-lab', with another developer? It could help with structuring, especially if they have more experience, and also can be a complementary skill, so you don't have to know everything.

[@rezagh7633]

I will appreciate if you create a video about freelancing.

[@charlesviolin]

Indeed, how do you structure your time as a freelancer?

[@donklee3514]

The reason why freelance programmers make more money is complicated and interesting. Most employers hold a wage hard line on existing employees insisting on pay cuts to inflation and heavy work loads. Eventually, the employee developers get sick of the abuse and leave the employer holding the hard line in a larch. The ability to hold a hard line is based on the employer's using freelance programmers as leverage against existing employee developer. When the employee calls the employers bluff, the employer are screwed. They screwed themselves. Or should i say the replacement's learning curve is going to screw them. The freelancer has leverage which translates into more money, but at a direct cost to the previous developer in negotiating power. It is a vicious cycle. If the temp worker/freelancer works out for the employer, then they never learn.

[@petrinaude6032]

please give us the video!

[@otarshavadze9178]

I work as freelancer, now have 4 hour/day local job offer and not sure should I accept or not, im not going to leave freelancing anyways.

[@frankprit3320]

GREAT VIDEO!! Im working on trying to do that. i see a lot of remote work for Senior Developers but not so much for entry level. what got your foot in the door to start your free lance career. thanks

[@StefanMischook]

Start with small projects. With each one your reputation builds and the value of the contracts increases.

[@frankprit3320]

@@StefanMischook thanks, im trying to diversify my skill sets, my background is primarily in Autocad and electrical design, which i would also like to develop into a more Freelance realm. im welcome to any ideas. thanks👍😀

[@FISS007]

Yeah, structuring !!!

[@chicagomike]

I started freelance work in 1998. It was freedom and flexible. It has many many many bad moments. Few good moments. It was hell finding clients. It’s still is. I have no retirement money 💰. Just social security. It’s very unsteady though I am a non tech marketing guy. I love freedom and so I stayed. I tried to get out and it was hell getting back in. Once you. Have stepped out. You stepped out. Insurance was non existent till obamacare. Nothing. I mean zip. Getting insurance was very very very hard. It’s not great. I don’t recommend it for most.

[@maxwellsv]

Is C# good for freelancing?

[@ericellert4006]

Before covid i got a few clients, after nada. Bern trying agaun recently. Nothing.

[@ukaszzbrozek6470]

Now we can be nomad without being freelance.

[@GardenStateDigital]

hey stef put out the video on structure lol

[@moneroxmr2130]

I don't understand the working per hour thing, if you have a bug that takes 3 hours to discover? would you add that to the cost? The longest logical error in my career took me 6 hours to discover and fix.

[@davidowens9597]

It depends on how you want to do it, but I found that I like setting a flat amount for the software project with the client and sticking to that. If you run into a bug that takes 3 hours to fix, then you have to eat the time. If you finish the project 3 hours early, great. It evens out over time. I think Stefan has a video on How to Price a Project.
