‘We are creatives, we are artists, we offer something that the average person on the street cannot so know your value. … Because otherwise, you're going to show up to work with this niggling feeling in the back of your head that you're being underpaid. And that's going to affect your work.’ – Edward
‘The opportunity costs of leaving your money in the bank is spectacular. … Either you invest for yourself, or you put it into CPF. Otherwise, you're leaving it in the bank to rot.’ – Edward
‘Companies will always lowball you. The first offer you get is always the lowest that they are willing to offer you. So always negotiate, no matter what.’ – Edward

KEY TAKEAWAYS
• Focus on a character’s objectives and obstacles, rather than their emotions.
• Method acting basically refers to your method, or process, of preparing as an actor. That’s it.
• You can suffer for your art, without having to hurt yourself for your art.
• Read & watch videos to learn more, but also find ways to practise.
• Acting can be a lonely profession. Build your community.
QUOTABLE QUOTES
‘It's way more interesting to see a character fight against the emotion than to give into the emotion because we don't do that in life. Why would we want to do that on stage or on TV?’ – Kamil
‘Method acting at no point in time said an actor must suffer, must bleed, must lock themselves in the bedroom for 30 days … And it does not, and it should not ever involve you having to hurt yourself.’ – Kamil
‘The hope for Singapore actors would be that we begin to connect brain to body more, that we allow ourselves to be to embrace failure … that we begin to embrace the inner life of the craft of the work and not just the outer life, the teeth and tits side of the craft.’ – Kamil

‘I've always lived with a mantra that I need to apply the art of business into the business of the arts.’ – Jeremiah

‘I strongly encourage, especially for younger actors whom they feel that they may be blacklisted, and they are accepting things that they are not comfortable with. … you need to negotiate out of it. And if you can't take it, then don't take it because you will get very stressed, you will get very worried and you're not able to give your best.’ – Jeremiah

QUOTABLE QUOTES
‘You don't have to be too afraid to ask questions. Things like that are healthy to have. Because it helps you play your character better.’ – Dorothy
‘Social media helps you get seen, perhaps because of the algorithm and all sorts of things. But really, if you do call them in for audition, it's the performance at the end of the day that will seal the deal’ – Laura
‘When I meet those people who come for auditions, I always tell them, don't need to be afraid of me, just be relaxed, we're here to help you, we're not here to harm you in any other way. Because if we are not interested in the first place, we wouldn’t even bother contacting you, right?’ – Dorothy

The Actor’s Space is a podcast hosted by Laura Kee, a freelance actor in Singapore. Through conversations with fellow actors, and industry colleagues, we will be talking about the working actor’s life in Singapore – how do we pursue our love for acting, while navigating the business side of the craft? Let’s create more conversations about the challenges of building a sustainable acting career in Singapore.
GUEST Sanif Olek is an award-winning, Singapore-based film writer and director since 1996, with a portfolio that ranges from independent films to current affairs. On a drama set, Sanif credits the deep conversations his actors shared with him on their process as the main factor to mine their best performances. His debut independent feature, SAYANG DISAYANG, was Singapore’s official entry to the 2015 Oscars® (Best Foreign Language Film).
KEY TAKEAWAYS
• Let your authenticity as an actor shine through.
• Don’t be too technical in your craft. Allow yourself to adapt to changes.
• People talk, on set and off. Your work ethics – being punctual, working well under pressure, being professional – are as important as your work.
• Be prepared to work with people who do not get along with you.
• Come on set with an open mind.
QUOTABLE QUOTES
‘At least in my eyes, right, they just have to be themselves when they act, so they don't have to bear the burden of having to perform.’ – Sanif
‘If they only have like 15 minutes before sunset, how do they perform? Or like, 2am in the morning when everyone is shagged and tired? How do they perform?’ – Sanif
‘You know, not everyone likes you on set. So when everything happens on set, to just sort of like, you know, just take it in and focus on the process.’ – Sanif

The Actor’s Space is a brand-new podcast hosted by Laura Kee, a freelance actor in Singapore. Through conversations with fellow actors, and industry colleagues, we will be talking about the working actor’s life in Singapore – how do we pursue our love for acting, while navigating the business side of the craft? Let’s create more conversations about the challenges of building an acting career in Singapore.
GUESTS
Shannon Su – emcee, actress & content creator
Kimberley Kiew – multidisciplinary performer & yoga instructor
KEY TAKEAWAYS
• Take classes to build your foundation as an actor.
• Track your income & expenses! Always track who owes you money, if any.
• Build a community with similar struggles and similar passions, to support and encourage you through the ups and downs.
• Your acting career is your small business – create an invoice template, know your worth, and negotiate your fees.
• In Singapore, you may not be able to survive on an acting income alone. Build viable alternative sources of income that may complement your acting work.
QUOTABLE QUOTES
‘20% of your time will be on set or on stage. 80% of the time, you're working on yourself, you're working on your skills, you're going for auditions, … you are kind of just doing things that buffer and build your time on set and your time on stage.’ – Kimberley
‘At the heart of it all, this is a business, right? This is not just a passion or something that we’re doing as a hobby. This is really our business and we are all small business owners of our own careers.’ – Laura
‘It’s like YOLO but at the same time, you have a backup plan. Yeah, so we’re not being reckless here okay?’ – Shannon

About Vincent Ha
Vincent is an entrepreneur with roots in freelancing. After making his first dollar renting books in Primary 2, he was hooked to the idea that money can be made in an infinite number of ways - limited only by one's imagination. Throughout his time in University, Vincent was a freelance videographer and video editor. He eventually joined his friend in starting Big 3 Media, a video production company, kickstarting his journey as an entrepreneur. In 2011, he became a co-founder at Gushcloud, an international talent and entertainment company with offices in more than 10 countries today. Having seen the future of work at Gushcloud, observing that increasing numbers of talented young people are choosing to be creators and business owners, Vincent was inspired in 2018 to help build a financial ecosystem that empowers creators and freelancers. Today, he spends his time fulfilling that mission at Lyte, to create an assured future for all freelancers.

As inflation goes up, what can freelancers do to stay financially secure? Our inflation rate hit a 13-year high at 4.8% in July. But inflation is not limited to just Singapore, we see this trend repeated in the US, Europe, and all over the world. We are concerned about how the increasing cost of living impacts creative freelancers. Over the next weeks, we will be speaking to creatives and financial experts about how current living conditions are affecting their work and practice. More importantly, what can we do to manage our finances in this challenging time?
For our first episode, we are speaking to Ben, who is known as the Passive Income Guy. He's a former accountant turned financial adviser. He wants to help you earn more, work less, and to get out of the rat race.
Connect with Ben:
Upcoming projects
Organising corporate workshops for SMEs and business owners who want to educate their staff about building passive income. "We help to take care of your people, so they can take care of business"

Being new also comes with certain setbacks, such as the doubts of candidates regarding NFT jobs. Would it be feasible to pursue a long-term career in a domain that has emerged only in recent months? Or launching and investing in NFTs projects when the market is in a lull?

Podcasts have the power to inspire and help make changes for the better; that is what Mission ISRO / 377 has done in India
Gaurav Vaz quit a comfortable IT job to pursue a career in music. When he set up his production company All Small Things, he was forced to pivot to podcasts during the pandemic
Hear the story of how India's space programme, with its uncommon characters and impossible odds, have inspired millions through its retelling on a podcast; while the podcast 377 has helped bring lasting positive change to the LGBTQIA+ community in India by contributing to the abolition of Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code.
About Mission ISRO
Born into violence, poverty and the desolation of colonial exploitation, newly independent India was a nation working hard to find its footing. But its head was held high––high as the clouds. The story of India’s space programme is such an unlikely one, with so many uncommon characters, filled with such impossible odds, that it can sometimes seem like science fiction rather than science. This is that story.
About 377
377 is a scripted narrative podcast about the legal action and accompanying social movement against Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code.
This anti-sodomy law was largely used to target MSM (men who have sex with men) populations in India and though rarely enforced, it was wielded as a threat against LGBTQI+ populations until 2018, when it was finally read down by the Indian Supreme Court.
About All Things Small
Gaurav Vaz is the co-founder and COO of All Things Small, a media company aiming to tell true stories. The company started back in October 2019. A bunch of people who never worked together had an idea - "creating content, which is true stories focused or non-fiction focused, coming out of the Indian subcontinent, and being told to the world."
Their one-line vision was ready, but they did not decide on the format of the content. They did not want to be restricted by format or by platform. The aim was to build the skill and ability to tell incredible stories from India in whatever format works best.

It may be uncool, but it’s worth thinking about money as something with which you have a complex relationship. Your money, and your personal finances, is not a fixed entity, but rather a complex of data points, challenges and opportunities that you interact with. Afterall, doing well with money isn’t necessarily about what you know. It’s about how you behave.
In this season of Uncool, our guests share, in this honest rendering, of how they navigate their finances as freelancers and detail the “how” and the “why” of their psychology of money.
New episodes coming on Saturdays.

The Balut Kiki Project is a podcast that literally saved its creators' lives
Hear the story of how this uniquely Pinoy, unapologetically queer, podcast came to be after creator Geoff quit his job because of depression and suicide, and connected with his best friend who also suffered a similar experience.
Balut Kiki's creators share about mental health being a stigma, and how their podcast is advocating for mental health among the LGBTQIA+ community in the Philippines
Note: This episode contains discussion on suicide, self harm and other mental health topics. Listener discretion is advised.
About The BALUT KIKI Project
Welcome to The BALUT KIKI Project!
We are a podcast that provides banter for the boys, and the girls, and us freaks in the middle. We are Filipino members of the queer community - some of us living in the Philippines (you'll know who among us are, the wifi lag that reflects on the sound will tell you! Ha!); the others elsewhere in the world.
Balut Kiki is a project that humbly aims to put a few more queer voices out there - ours, plus those of our allies and other members of the community. Our modest aim is to bolster queer representation by adding our own personal views, experiences, frustrations and hopes into the prevailing discourse or by calling attention to issues where we feel, through our own personal journeys, there is not enough dialogue existing (like mental health, sex and sexuality, non-traditional identities and relationships, etc.). But make no mistake, we dig into a lot of silly and mindless chatter too! We also hope that by speaking out through this project, it will empower others in our community to make their voices heard as well.

About Geoff
Geoff is one of the hosts of a Filipino-LGBT podcast called THE BALUT KIKI PROJECT which aims to normalize difficult conversations considered taboo in Philippine culture – mental health, sex and human sexuality, and non-traditional gender identities and relationships.
Geoff’s podcast will celebrate their first year anniversary this May – next month – and they are already looking back at how fabulous their first year of podcasting has been for them - having had amazing guests, a steady increase in listenership, and an international award for being the Best Podcast Host in Asia!
Although Geoff currently lives Down Under, he feels he still left his heart back in the Philippines -which is why he wants to continue advocating for the Filipino queer community, for mental and sexual health, and to empower Filipinos and Asians all over the world to speak up and make sure their stories are heard.

According to CNBC, the Philippines is one of the top 10 countries with the fastest-growing earnings for freelancers.

Klaviyo / Master 's Fred Mosquida shares how he grew his one-man show to a highly profitable business and how he plans to give back to the community by helping other Filipinos in rural regions embark on their freelancing journey.
Fred Mosquida is an email copywriter helping e-commerce business owners with their email marketing campaigns and set up their automated flows using Klaviyo.

Content marketing is increasingly seen as a competitive advantage. But how can we create new content in an efficient and sustainable way? What can Singapore and Asia learn from an established freelancing landscape such as the United States? How can you level up as a freelance content writer in a global marketplace? This week we check in with Steve Pockross for our new Freelancing around the world series to discuss how brands can repurpose their existing content and explore new marketing channels. He shares how his content writing platform Verblio is scaling and streamlining their freelancer matchmaking process as well as highly desired qualities possessed by their most successful and in-demand writers.
Steve Pockross brings more than 25 years of startup, Fortune 500, and nonprofit experience to his role at Verblio. As CEO, he applies leading marketplace and SaaS principles to create an industry-leading content creation platform with 3,000 U.S.-based writers supporting the creation of premium content at scale in every niche. Verblio has been named an Inc 5000 winner 2x, a Mercury growth winner 5x, and was named a Colorado Company to watch in 2020.

Carynn Tey landed in Bangkok just before the lockdown started last year and since then she has successfully launched her business there, in spite of the covid-19 pandemic. We speak to her about the importance of having an open and positive mindset when arriving in a new country and what it is like to work in one of the world’s friendliest countries.

TV in the 2020s may not even look like TV as we know. Our children are already device-agnostic — looking for TV anywhere they can find it. The future of the media is in content itself, no longer the devices we are watching on. We speak to Warner Kids Carlene Tan about how children’s viewing habits (Youtube, TikTok & gaming) and social relevant programming are set to shape the future of television.
Carlene Tan is the new director of original production and development for Warner Kids division in Asia Pacific. As departmental lead, she is responsible for identifying new IP and producing original series for Cartoon Network, Boomerang and POGO.

However, entrepreneurs should always have an exit strategy for their business plan, despite the economic situation. The angel investor shares her candid views on what she looks for before investing in a startup, how freelancers & solopreneurs can scale their business and balancing motherhood while running a business.
Huang Shao-Ning started her first business JobsCentral as a fresh graduate back in 2000. She grew and exited the business in 2011 to CareerBuilder. She is "anal" about processes and particular about doing things for the right reasons. Since her exit, her life focus has been to be relevant and pay it forward. Shao-Ning has been actively advising deep tech startups and also some social entrepreneurs. She is a peer-mentor to many women but most importantly she is a wife and mom to four boys.In the family angel/PE portfolio, she has investments in more than 35 startups, of which, 7 are led by women CEOs! and 7 VC investments.

As content creators ourselves, we work with many actors in our projects and we have a strong appreciation for them and what they bring to our screens. Without actors, there won’t be movies or television.
Despite their importance in the ecosystem, many actors find it a challenge to be recognised and rewarded for their craft. We speak to Kris Mavericko and Renita Kapoor, who have acted as a son and mother in After_Life, a short film developed under STOREYS. They discuss what is it like to be a freelance actor in Singapore from attending auditions and finding gigs to getting paid, building a sustainable career and how they are coping with the current pandemic situation.

STOREYS is a ground up digital initiative to tell stories that can drive a positive change in Singapore. Watch After_Life here: https://www.storeys.video/watch/afterlife

Being a DJ sounds like the coolest job. But there’s more to it than just playing music at a rave, as we found from the hard style duo act Paramercy, made up of ParaNoid and Swave Emercy, two out of the hardstyle veterans in Singapore. They have performed with popular Hardstyle event labels and organisers such as AfterDark Singapore, Hard Ascension Hardsoundz Nation. We speak to Paramercy about the business behind being DJs and what it is like to market and build up your brand and label, as individuals and as a dual act.
See them live at the Hard Acension Live for Paramercy birthday on July 13!

Join us for another episode of Freelance Creative Exchange where we ask Joline and Melvin how they found the courage to make the leap from their established careers to becoming their own bosses.

How you manage talents, crew and partners in a multi-cultural and multi-lingual production?
Back in August, we presented a panel called “Your Worst Nightmare”, as part of our podcast party and it was well-received by our audience. We have conducted many surveys with our freelancers in the past and working with clients always comes at the top. This special episode is a sequel to the panel, featuring CreativesAtWork’s crew Fanny and Kyle. They share their worst nightmare stories about challenging clients and managing freelancers, especially freelancers from around the Southeast Asia region.

At our recent podcast party on 30th August 2018 we invited back three of Singapore’s top performing independent creative professionals, now business owners who rely heavily on freelancers, (Shawn Toh, Alex Oh and Satya Purna) to share their experiences as a freelancer with the next generation.
Here are some of the top words of wisdom shared:
“Impress yourself 10x or more” – Fanny Tham, Chief Worker
It can be disheartening when you’ve worked so hard on something to experience an unimpressed client. Fanny discovered the power of this simple technique after working on 40 revisions!
“You are only as good as your last job?” – Jayce Tham, Chief Businesswoman
Referrals and repeat work are critical. Jayce suggests rather than disappointing a client by missing a deadline, ask for an extra day to finish up or polish the work.
“Make sure they know what they don’t want” – Shawn Toh, CEO & Design Director
Despite our best efforts, it can be difficult to meet the client’s expectations, especially when they don’t know what they want. To avoid this, Shawn finds he can get a clearer picture by asking clients what it is that they don’t want.
“If you can do within 1 minute, why not?” – Alex Oh, Film Composer
While none of us wants to be working on 40 revisions and 3-revisions is indeed the industry norm, at the end of the day we are all in client servicing. When deciding if you should work beyond the scope of your agreement Alex suggests giving your best or more. For the benefit of a returning customer, he suggests asking yourself this simple question.
“Charge 20-30% above average” – Satya Purna, Founder & Brand Strategist, ZAG Studios
It all boils down to money, we all have to make a living. You’re not getting CPF or employee benefits and you deserve to be paid for the benefits you can deliver to a client. Satiya suggests charging above average and then providing exceptional level service to prove your worth.
“No public shaming” – Fanny Tham, Chief Worker
Unfortunately, there might be times when situations escalate. Fanny suggests always seeking mediation during these difficult times and to avoid public shaming. The community is small, and you’ll be admired for taking the high road.
“You can fire the client” – Shawn Toh, CEO & Design Director
Perhaps one of the best privileges of being a freelancer is the ability to fire the client. You deserve to be treated with respect and paid on time for your services. Shawn recommends avoiding repeat work with clients who don’t meet their end of the deal.
Inspired by all those nature documentaries you watched on BBC or National Geographic? In this latest episode, Jayce and Fanny speak to wildlife photographer and videographer Tim Plowden and find out what it is really like to be one. What kind of qualifications and training are needed? How is it like to travel the world to work on different projects? What kind of danger has he faced?

INSURANCE FOR FREELANCERS | The Freelance Creative Exchange (#9) CHAN PEI LING
What kind of insurance should you get when you first start freelancing? How do you insure yourself for sick days and equipment? Who is responsible for your insurance when you are engaged for an overseas gig?
As a freelancer, you are responsible for insuring yourself. Unlike being an employee, there is no employer to cover you for illness and injury. But what kind of insurance do you really need?
We speak to Pei Ling in this episode to answer all your pressing insurance questions.
Chan Pei Ling is a Media Risk Consultant at Starlight Media Consultants, where she advises companies and media freelancers on good business practices, as well as coverage needed for feature films, documentaries, TV series, as well as corporate formats.

“At the starting stage you may do things which you don't really want to do, but you have to do it because it's a job. So, I think being able to accept that is important, putting your dreams aside, just for a moment, and learn the skillset required.”

When you promise to love a person 'till death do us part', what does it really mean? On the 11th of March, 2011, Yasuo Takamatsu lost his wife to the tsunami during the Great East Japan earthquake. Since that fateful day, he has been diving in the sea every week in search for her. Compelled and inspired to share Yasuo’s story, “I want to go home” was a documentary about the strength of human resilence and the power of love, with an accompanying book.
In this episode, we speak to director and author Wesley Leon Aroozoo on the process on conceiving both works, his filmmaker journey and what it is like to be selected for Busan International Film Festival after years of trying. What are his insights about the media industry and its future from teaching the next generation of filmmakers?
Wesley Leon Aroozoo is a filmmaker, writer and a LASALLE College of the Arts lecturer. His first full-length documentary, I Want To Go Home, made its world premiere at the Busan International Film Festival and was one of 10 entries shortlisted to compete BIFF ’s Wide Angle Documentary Competition.

"So, as a freelancer, you have to be responsible to the project, you can't double book stuff, if not, you just don't have the bandwidth. I mean, pitching is good, knowing how to sell is great, but you can't oversell as well. Then obviously, from the other end, please be fair to your freelancers, they're only human, they're not going to pull off X amount of work in Y time, that kind of thing. You work in the industry, you know what's humanly possible.

Anne-Laure is an artist, facilitator and community builder. She helps individual or university organisations align and build together the relation to this vision through collectve art experiences.

Anne: Every time you meet a client, what I'm trying to do, and a lot of people would advise the same, ask this potential client, “Hey, can you recommend me someone else to meet with, just to have a coffee and get some feedback and understand?”
[00:32:08]
Anne: So that's a tip that you never leave, and if the person is busy or something, or they say, “I will follow up later.” And they don't, you do follow up, until they give you a contact.
[00:28:56]
Satya: Definitely go out there and be useful, and the second this is, understand that you have an inherent value, just because you have time, passion and interest in a certain topic.
[00:38:54]
it's important to reverse engineer how much you should be charging, because think about it from the perspective of, “How much money do I want to earn every month?” And then break that down into, “How much time do I have available to work on client projects?” And then come up with the project fee.

“If I think back about every conversation I’ve had with HR people and they say to me that, “We only hire culture fit,” then I would like to challenge that. If you only hire culture fit, do you usually hire people who are just like you? And if you hire people who are just like you, it’s really great to find agreeable people, but does that take your business further?

Karoli is a TEDx speaker and founder of Jobbatical – a marketplace for international career adventures. She founded her first company at the age of sixteen (officially becoming the youngest inventor of Estonia). Karoli successfully lead the launch of seven television channels in Northern Europe (including National Geographic Channels, MTV, and Fox entertainment). She was named one of the 20 most promising young entrepreneurs under 25 in Europe by the prestigious international business magazine BusinessWeek and one of 50 Most Influential Women in Tech of Europe in 2016 by EU-Startups.
[00:01:24]
I actually became an entrepreneur when I was 16, from a student company. I grew out my first company. I became the youngest inventor in my country. It was a very inspiring experience, realising that as a 16-year-old, you can invent something that will change people’s lives and you don’t have to have a PhD to do that, but you can be a simple girl.
[00:11:20]
Karoli:
Our headquarters is in Tallinn, Estonia, where we have people, now I think it’s 42 people from 19 nationalities. They all came through Jobbatical, or most of them came through Jobbatical and they flew in to build our vision. So, I think that’s really inspiring, and I think that’s where the world will be. Like your career shouldn’t be defined by where you were accidently born and live, but maybe for the best team, you have to circle the world and then you get there.
[00:18:30]
After several discussions around this topic, the Estonian Ministry turned to us to help to figure our the digital nomad visa. So, their plan is to get it launched. Basically, make it effective from the beginning of next year and basically, we are together, putting together the criteria. But the idea of that is that basically you can be a freelancer, a contractor, servicing different kinds of clients. You can be an entrepreneur who has a small agency and working as a freelancer. Location independent.
Basically, then initially, the visa will be one year and the goal for Estonia is that those people would actually want to stay there and make it a very easy transition if they want to stay there later to get either a work permit or to extend the digital nomad visa, but that visa would also give access to Schengen, but with a limitation of 90 days then.
[00:33:28]
Karoli: So, I think the future of work, in that sense, will be much more global and so attracting people will be, like a big thing that the countries will have to start focusing on. That means, also, again we were talking about user experience and I think the countries will definitely have to start thinking about the user experience of a country, because if you create barriers, I mean, look at America right now, we have seen the decline of international interest, even to go and travel there, not talking about studying, which has dropped enormously. So, if you create barriers or fear, that will mean that people won’t want to come here, so they will go somewhere else.

“The one thing about freelancers, because you do everything yourself, means you are marketing yourself. If you're stuck in a project, most of the time your brain just focuses on what you're doing, and you forget about your networking, your marketing. So, in a sense, freelancers, as good as it sounds, you have your flexible hours, you'd be surprised to know that you actually sleep very little. In fact, you do a lot of work, sometimes more than people who are working in offices or have regular jobs.”

5:50:
If you are excited, you know what you can do and you’re just excited to apply it, then really, there are so many different outlets where you can apply yourself. So, it really just starts with that mindset.
9:23:
Creativity can manifest itself in many different ways. Even in business, in terms of structuring different business deals, creativity and thinking outside of the box is very crucial as well.
12:44
“There are two types of photographers in this world,” and when I use photographers, they can be very interchangeable to designers, architects, any other positions. There are people that are very skilled, very talented, but without a business sense, no one knows who they are. Or, you could be a mediocre talent, but with a lot of business sense, and funny enough, these are the people that succeed.
14:44
You can either complain about it or you can figure out a way around it.
I think the first step is to realise that all this is happening. If you refuse to believe that all of this happening and you keep on that same path, you’re not going to get anywhere. If you understand this and you can understand, then you can come up with that creative model on how to solve it.
17:48
So, really that value is what a lot of freelancers need to be focusing on. If they can figure out what value they can provide, figure out how they can benefit a company or help a company grow.
21:46
Forget about technology. Technology will always keep changing and there will always be a lot of competitors. But if you are very effective in what you do, instead of a viewer taking ten seconds to digest a message, if your shot if very clear, you know exactly, and that same message is told effectively in one second, they can tell it, that’s where your value comes from.
30:57
I think with photography, creating something out of nothing, and then having a final picture that you can show the world, I think that excites me.
32:09:
There were so many different failures that have hit me along the way, but I think the drive and passion, you know what you want to make happen and you still keep going.
33:28
A lot of failures. The first clients happen after, let’s say 100 people turn you down, the 101st client that you get, that is your success.
33:42:
I think a lot of the students that I meet nowadays, the younger generation, I think they kind of take things for granted and they think everything is kind of given to them. So, when they hit that little bump of failure, they kind of give up. So, I think that is a mindset that you have to kind of get over.
36:49
If I disappear, no one’s going to miss me. But if I can create something bigger, that impacts a lot of people, so let’s say if I go at least I had value or a mark I made on this world. That is what keeps me driving.
38:54
Don’t give up, because failure is imminent, you will always hit failure,
Success is the enthusiasm to hit every challenge without losing any enthusiasm. So, to me, if you can do that, that will eventually lead to success.
42:15
Ask outrageously. I think a lot of people are very scared to ask for favours or ask for certain things and once again, there’s a lot of different stories.
44:12
Don’t be too comfortable in where you are at, because, I mean, more than ever, technology, your base skillset is always growing.
45:27
Take action despite fear.

"Freelancing is like running your own business." Heard that before? You've got to handle cash flow, client management, project management and you now supply your own 'employee' benefits. This is all while building your name up as a trustworthy business and getting more clients.
And there are also bigger things to worry about. Between AI, the blockchain, and whatever Elon Musk is up to—automation and digital technology aren’t just changing the big companies, but are impacting our everyday lives. What does it mean to be a freelancer today? How do we stay ahead of the competition? Can we continue to stay agile and upscale in a changing global economy?
Freelance Exchange is our first ever podcast about freelancers by freelancers. Hosted by CreativesAtWork co-founders Fanny and Jayce, you will find candid conversations with creative professionals about freelancing and the gig economy in Singapore & beyond.
