When starting freelancing, many people feel they need proof of their skills before clients will trust them. This proof is often called a portfolio, which is a collection of your past work. Some people offer free work to build this, while others avoid it. Do you think working for free is a good way to gain experience and trust, or does it make clients value your work less in the long run?
Ask Is it smart to work for free at first just to build up some examples of your work?
