It’s never easy to start something new and it gets even tougher when you’re starting out as a freelance Instructional Designer. Before you even take the plunge a million questions pop up in your head. How to I start? Where do I find clients? How much should charge for a project? What if I do the work and don’t get paid? And to be honest there aren’t many platforms that help out a freelancer, to educate them or guide them.
I’d setup a community hour, a virtual meetup for IDs to discuss their ideas and ask any questions they have in mind about freelancing in Instructional Design. We had a successful meetup and based on our discussion with experienced and newbies in the world of freelancing, we have compiled the most common questions and responses to help you out in your journey as a freelance Instructional Designer.
