Okay, I was probably being a little less accurate than I should have been. You can create your own opportunities, promote yourself, make your gigs and offerings the best they can be. That is all down to you. However, with a crowded marketplace, and especially as a first time seller without any reviews, there is a little luck and patience involved. I don’t think you can deny that. But if there are tips to getting that first offer I’d love to hear them.
