What’s your story? Tell us about yourself.
Sudais – I’m an A Levels student who always wanted to earn money online but always thought of it being something far fetched for the professionals. But slowly after joining Fiverr, I’ve managed to work for clients all over the world including a best selling author if I recall correctly! On the other hand, I invest in cryptocurrencies and run my 2 online ventures, one being a property portal and the other a platform for connecting people with co-working spaces.
How & When did you decide that freelancing was the right career choice for you ?
Sudais – I’m not pursuing it as a career but as a hobby and It’s been 2 years by now that I am doing freelancing. However, I would imagine being involved in it forever even if I have another career because its a useful way to polish up your skills.
Do you see freelancing as an alternative to job or do you see a purpose in it ?
How did getting into freelancing change your lifestyle and mindset ?
What has been Biggest struggle with freelancing so far ? Have there been moments where you started to regret your decision or moments where your found yourself under pressure ( financial / family etc ) to take a U-turn back to join a day job ?
Would you call yourself successful ? What does success really means to you ?
Sudais – I wouldn’t because success with freelancing should at least entail an income amount that would not make you look for other alternatives but it is a fun ride which has given me loads of experience.
How important do you think giving back to the community is ?
Sudais – I think its very important because their was a time when we ourselves were and still are maybe in need of professional advice to kick-start our careers and now that we’re ahead, we should move on to help others. It helps create a culture where people help each other out and then an entire community blooms not to mention the personal branding you get.
