Just to share you a good article - 10 Phrases Every Freelancer Should Kick-Out of Their Vocabulary by Shama Hyder. Photos by scienceyear.com and onlinetutoringworld.com.
As a freelancer, you must know a way to maintain your brand. Your freelance rate is very much depends on your brand instead of your skill. To maintain your brand, you must know what to avoid when branding your self. Here is the 10 phrases you should always keep in mind during the conversation with your client. Don’t let your words damage your brand.
“I can do it for cheaper” — If you could do it for cheaper, why did you quote me a higher price in the first place?
If you think your work is really good and have the confidence, do not lower your prices, it may backfire. I never believe in price war but quality. Always bid a freelance job based on the value behind your skill and quality of work.
“I am not the best…” — You may not be the best, but this isn’t exactly awe-inspiring for a client to hear, is it?
Though it is not really a good idea to show off or boast around. Do not undervalue your skills in such extent that the client himself looses confidence on you. It creates a negative image to the client who always look for the BEST to do their project.
“Umm…uh..” — Okay, it’s not exactly a phrase, but umms and uhs can really kill a conversation.
Do not project any trace of stress at any stage of the conversation with your client. This definitely puts the client off. Try to focus on whatever he has to say, and he will sense the professionalism and reliability in you.
“This is a side-gig” — And it may be a side gig, but don’t share unless you plan on keeping it a side gig forever.
Leave out this detail if you plan to make your freelance work as a means of living.
“I work in my pajamas ” – This sounds like it should make the client envious, but it doesn’t always work that way.
When dealing with clients, do not be unprofessional in appearance, even though the client may not care, but you never know. So best is to take no chance.
“I have no idea” — There will be many times when you have “no idea.” This phrase isn’t necessarily bad, as long as it doesn’t stop there.
When you are running out of idea or have no idea at all, don’t readily admit. Be positive. The right phrase should be “I’ll find one”.
“My prices are flexible” - This ties in with number one. Why are your prices flexible?
Do not juggle your prices to much, that send a wrong signal to the client. If you believe that your work is good enough to be entitled for a higher payment, then stick to it.
“F***, D***, S***”- Some freelancers tend to be the creative types who don’t like to censor their language for anyone.
Do not use foul or vulgar words in front of client even if you are quite sure that the client doesn’t really care about this. But still to keep the atmosphere healthy and professional. Do not use these words at all.
“What did you say? I missed that” - Develop your listening skills.
Your clients will surely feel disturbed if he has to repeat his words for no reason, no one actually likes this thing. Concentrate hard on what the client has to say. If you are weak in listening, get help from a voice recorder.
“I partied way too hard last night”- …and now I am going to start work on your thousand dollar project.
If you really show this kind of behavior, client will surely loose faith upon you. Do not mix your personal life with professional life.
Every freelancer should exclude these phrases and attitudes from their work spectrum.

START FROM ANY POINTS
Sometimes you may feel stuck to start the literature. If you really feel that you can’t move on, then start your writing from any point. Later, you will have the right feeling about how to put up and construct a piece of good work.
LOOK FOR IDEAS
As you go along with your days, try to hoard different kinds of ideas from the environmental occurrences. Try to keep a notebook with you all the time. You can take down something that you feel may help you later on.
A WORKING ENVIRONMENT
This is really an important part to your overall success. A good and comfortable environment not only can help your mind to focus more on the task in hand, but also can contribute in your writing by offering different creative ideas.

I just came across this article How To Get Paid Freelance Work While You’re Still A Design Student by FreelanceFolder.com. I think it is very useful guide for design students to get more design related freelance jobs.
Working part time in student life can be of great advantage if the work is related to the field of study! But it is not so easy to find out work which does relate to your study field. And if you are a student of graphic designs then it is actually quite difficult to really get that desired freelance jobs.
Your Problem:
The basic problem for a design student is that they are still learning and do not have any required knowledge of client management and a reputable portfolio. This article specifically points out few problems and solutions that you can take to enhance your chance of involving yourself into some professional work.
Your Solution Tips:
- NO BASIC DESIGN SKILLS: This is why you are in designing course, but you should not just follow the course structure. You must enhance your knowledge in the theories and practices by your own effort. Then the people see the potential in you, and you avail yourself more and more new job opportunity.
- LACK OF COMPUTER SKILL: As a designer, you will be needed to perform using various graphics designing software. So you must need the required skills. You can learn from books, from tutorials which you can download from various websites such as Download.com. Althrough offering your already learned skills to some graphic design companies, may be they will not pay you or may be very less, but you get that required touch of professionalism in your work.
- ABSENCE OF A REPUTABLE PORTFOLIO: Having a convincing portfolio is the first step of securing any kind of designing job. If you can have a commendable portfolio even for your freelance work, it will highly enhance your chance to get that work. If you lack items to enrich your portfolio, put some fictional stuff, but just make sure they are of good quality and worthy of applaud, then the studios will accept it even though it is fictional! I would suggest you to create a blog to showcase your portfolio, just like what BelKoo did for his design portfolios.
- LACK OF CLIENT MANAGEMENT SKILLS: This is an extremely important skill that many designing graduates lacks. And the only way to gain this is to work in real life somewhere. So just proceed to the local design/print shop and they’ll accept you happily.
These tips may help you on managing your freelance deal: - GETTING THE CLIENTS: When you feel confident enough that you can work as a freelancer, go look out for clients and companies, get involved into various freelancing blog sites and forum. Mix with people a lot to expand your list contacts. Thus gradually you will see a lot of places to apply your skills. Check out the Freelance Sources For Graphic Designer
So by following the aforementioned points, you can overcome the stated problems and will be able to stretch your chance of getting that desired part time by an extended scale.
