ABOUT THIS PODCAST EPISODE 

Hear how Dave Officer, a freelance graphic designer got started and finds clients in this episode of the Being Freelance podcast hosted by Steve Folland. 

Dave shares his late leap into freelancing, discussing the challenge of overcoming the urge to procrastinate by consuming endless information. 

Discover how Dave transitioned from a steady job to pursuing his passion later in life, using creative networking strategies and leveraging social media platforms like LinkedIn to build his brand. 

If you're wondering if LinkedIn video can bring you work... yes it can. Dave is the proof. 

But how is he doing it? 

Stand out. Bit that bit different to the 20 who came before. 

With plenty of humorous anecdotes and practical advice, Dave's story is a must-watch for any aspiring freelancer looking to make their mark, or established self employed creatives who are trying to find clients on social media.
