1: SHIFT THAT MINDSET.

3: DO FREE WORK.

——> This is will come as a shock and I will probably get some flak for it, but one of the BEST ways to build your proof is to PROVE YOUR WORTH.

• Re-master their products landing page

• Draft a blog about said product

• Journo

• Carrd

——> Take your time & UTILIZE the free options you have, your portfolio IS YOUR RESUME. 🙌
