How To Be A Successful Web-developer

This article was written by a friend he told me to post it here Let go,

Hello Loadedcity reader, am Apele, a civil engineer by
profession and web-developer for extra
charge.

Am not starting this thread to paste adds or
show people that i am successful in web
design. I am using it as a medium to reach
struggling web-developers like me, so we
can help ourselves.

LESSON ONE : HOW TO GET WEB DESIGN
JOBS
Its good to post your contacts on nairaland
for people to call you. But my guy you
might be wasting your time. Based on my
experience after pasting my adds on several
threads and creating topics over and over
again. The only people that call me are
fellow web-designers, who just want to fool
me and find the cms am using, children that
just want to call to say hi, people that
promise and promise and never get back to
you.
Infact even threads that say "we need a
web-designer" are fake. Someone is
laughing at the other side watching us drop
our contacts. Don't waste your time bros.
You cant find good jobs on the internet,
you have to use the old school method.
That one helps me better.
It starts with writing a web-proposal of not
more than 6 pages.
It should contain
What website is
Importance and why a client should have it
About your company
Works you have done or demos if you are
new.
Bill
And contact
If you cant write your proposal, then you
not ready. Make the cover as attractive as
possible and make several prints of it.
On the deal day, look good and confident,
smell nices, etc.
Places to go to
Schools, churches, companies, hotels, etc.
Walk in and ask for their manager and drop
your proposal with him.
Your bravery will pay.
Please if you find this thread useful, kindly
comment to make me carry on. There are
several things i want to show you.
