Hello Madhvi,
Since you have done Dip. in 3DS Max, I would suggest taking up projects on online freelance marketspaces like Guru.com, Limeexchange.com etc since there is a demand for such skills in the architectural services, interior designs etc
Best of Luck!

Hi Ron,

Thanks for the ‘thumbs up’.

About minimum bids, I assume you mean the amount – let me be truthful (anyway its not a secret) – as a freelancer who needs to get a foothold in the crowded freelance marketplace, one needs to bid low initially. This is ofcourse to gain reputation by way of ratings and references as well. However, once you get about 2-3 ratings, you should begin marking up the fee. My strategy is usually to bid high enough when my hands are full (of projects).

Regards,
Amod

This is exactly what I was looking for, and for good reason…
Outstanding post. Thanks.

What is your opinion on minimum bids? Is higher better?

Good post. One question I can think of is: Is my skillset recession proof? In these troubled times, one really must get in shape with regards to enhancing own skills rather than focus on offering more than just low prices.
