There are two kinds of Freelancers, and succeeding is all about which kind you are.
There are two kinds of Freelancers, and succeeding is all about which kind you are. We have those we call the Dumpers and another set we call the Movers. Lets quickly look at some of the attitudes of these freelancers, so you can choose which kind you want to be.
DUMPERS:
Those is this category sign up on our freelancing website, upload their services (Midu) and leave expecting to get orders without doing anything. They forget that on platforms like ours there would be several other person’s offering such services, sometimes they get lucky and make a sale or two, but if you really want to succeed as a freelance worker you’ve got to be a MOVER.
Let’s look at 9 attitudes of Dumpers, if you are guilty of any one, note it down and turn a new leaf.. success would be the end result.
Characteristics of Dumpers
1. Dumpers are lazy, they expect the system to automatically get clients for them
2. Dumpers don’t share their Midu on Social Media even though it is free to do so
3. Dumpers do not do anything that could help people know about their services like talking about it on Nairaland
4. Dumpers do not upload high quality image or video to represent their service
5. Dumpers don’t use catchy titles for their Midu and expect buyers to click it.. To learn how to write compelling Midu titles read our post on 570 Hot selling Midu Ideas
6. Dumpers don’t take time to write compelling Midu Descriptions or even emulate others who do it well
7. Dumpers don’t like to learn about how to do freelancing well, they may not read this post to the end or even read the articles I am recommending.
8. Dumpers end up blaming the system when they make poor sales
9. This attitude of dumpers shows in every other aspect of their life!
If you are a dumper, you’ve got to change and change really fast.
MOVERS:
It is easy to identify a mover, they are determined to make something happen for themselves, When they see an opportunity like this, they take it personal and want to make the best out of it. They use every means they have to promote their Midu service online.The amazing thing about being a mover is that you make sales even when you are sleeping because soon enough, your effort begins to pay off and you don’t have to continue doing all the activities to drive sales.
If you advertise your Midu Service on Facebook or Instagram with as little as N1,000 you could get 10 sales.. If what you sell is N5,000, you would have made N50,000 revenue..
Let’s consider some characteristics of movers you can learn from or give yourself some accolade if you’ve got it right.

2. Movers are proactive about sharing their Midu Service links on all their social media accounts (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, WhatsApp, etc.) They leave no channel out!

4. Movers use catchy words in their Midu Service Titles that captivates the attention of service buyers. See examples of Great Midu Titiles in our post 570 Hot selling Midu Ideas
5. Movers don’t say I am not good at writing, they invest some energy in writing detailed description of why their service is important to the buyer, and why they are the best freelancer to hire for the job.. My colleague Uche, wrote a very powerful article on how to do this, you can read it here.
6. Movers are always seeking to learn, I can bet they would read this article to the end and even read all the articles I have recommended in this post.
