Freelancing Tips & Getting Started

Freelancing can be exciting but also confusing when you are just starting out. How do you find clients, price your work, and communicate your value without second-guessing yourself? This session is a practical, honest conversation about what freelancing actually looks like behind the scenes.

I will share what I have learned from my own experiences, the good, the challenging, and the lessons that only come with time. Over the years, I have had the chance to work with a range of brands including PepsiCo, Snapchat, HarperCollins, Two Brothers Organic Farms, Zomato, Amazon Prime, and the Government of India, and each collaboration has taught me something new about how creative work functions in different settings.

Together, we will talk about how to approach clients, set boundaries, and build the confidence to manage your projects smoothly. Freelancing, at its heart, is about building relationships and sharing stories that make people believe in what you do.

You will leave with:

1. A realistic understanding of what freelancing involves
2. Tips for finding and approaching clients
3. Guidance on pricing, communication, and managing expectations
