Sometimes the thing you think you’re stuck on is just a distraction from what’s really holding you back. In this Fashion Freelancer Q&A, technical designer Jaylene asks where to find freelance clients. But over the course of the conversation, she realizes that it’s not finding the brands that’s most challenging, but putting herself out there to pitch her services.

• Different ways to find brands in your niche
• What to do if social media isn’t your thing
• Which email address is the right one when contacting brands
• Where to look for trade shows for your research
• Overcoming your fears so you can pursue your freelance goals
