One of the biggest mistakes I think coders make is getting so caught up in the technical side of their coding career that they lose track of all the other (often MORE important) aspects of being a successful coder.
I know I did.
In fact, for the longest time I held this completely erroneous belief that talent trumped everything. That all I needed to worry about was being talented and I’d be good.
WRONG!
Because of that I couldn’t figure out why I started to lose out on client after client and constantly get underbid by coders who I KNEW were less talented.
Couldn’t my potential clients see?
Well, things got bad enough that I eventually had to swallow my pride and figure it out. And, as I did I began to realize that your technical talent is only one very small part of being successful as a freelance coder.
Eventually, I discovered what I call “The 5 Stages of Coding Career Development“… and man did my life change.
Suddenly, I had a real roadmap to methodically build my business and my career. I knew exactly what to do in order to consistently get clients to pick me… EVEN IF someone tried to underbid me.
Eventually, I stopped bidding on projects on Elance and oDesk altogether. And now today I turn down way more work than I accept. Not to mention I’m just way happier.
Well, in this podcast I want to share that same information with you. I want to teach you those 5 stages and help you discover which stage you’re at… and how to quickly move to the next one.
So, you can experience that same kind of sudden shift in your career that I did.
