I've set up my own Print-on-Demand store. Failed and learned. Quit corporate, started freelancing as an email cold outreach marketer. I know the end-to-end process of lead generation and cold outreach now, cool. Smashed goals, but wanted bigger things. Then joined an ecommerce brand selling mobile phone chargers. Officially was a VA but helped out in everything I could. Grew some social media content, newsletters, handled some outreach for influencers. Started my own Shopify store - did everything from product research on Aleixpress, FB/IG reviews, etc., to setting up Shopify product pages, plugins, Klaviyo, Loox reviews, A/B tested some ads (engaged creatives elsewhere). Had fun and learned but ran out of capital. I got my rate from taking my total earnings and divided it by my total hours. This includes clients from different avenues. Most freelancers just take a number they feel is nice. I know because I recruit freelancers for clients too. This way it's fair to both of us. :)
