What do you enjoy most about being in your room?
One of the main things about being a freelance marketer is holding yourself accountable, but you also have the flexibility of your time. Some days I'm working from eight to seven PM just to get a project done or meet my own deadlines, or my clients' deadlines ahead of schedule.
I think the freedom you have is great. I can work from home, a coffee shop, or even from Hawaii on the beach. Of course, I wouldn't do that if I had a meeting, but there's a lot of flexibility that comes with this.
Many people started working remotely at the beginning of 2020 due to the pandemic. I was already working remotely then and learned that flexibility is really great. That's why I love it now, especially being able to work on my own time.
