Saul V

USA

Before: CODE BOOTCAMP, NO RESULTS

Profitable Freelancer After 1 Month

Saul attended a code bootcamp and every student's worst fear came true...
He spent all that time and money, and didn't get a job.

Instead of giving up on coding, Saul took a chance by joining Freemote, which was still relatively new at the time.

Fortunately, he was in good hands -- he got incredible results after just 1 month working with 4 clients at the same time.

Before: NO SPECIFIC CAREER PATH

Full Time Developer & Coding Mentor

Though he'd learned a bit of front end coding before Freemote, he was stuck in what's commonly known as "tutorial hell"

FREEMOTE gave him the structure and direction he needed to make progress on an actual career in coding, which led to a full time job offer from Pipedrive!

As he went through the program he was extremely proactive in helping other students, so we also hired Kaido as a FREEMOTE mentor who you can get help from!

He now has more clients than he can handle and was kind enough to take some time out of his schedule and shoot us this video !

Bootcamp Graduates

I'm still freelancing at the moment, but I was actually able to relocate my family to upstate New York and buy a house all on my own! We moved in July and have been living our best life.

Avery Dickerson

Freelance Shopify Developer

Today I was hired as a Shopify developer at a company, after freelancing for 5 months post finishing Freemote! Thanful for Jan Frey and Aaron Jack, the rest of the Freemote team, and to the people in this group for supporting me when I really struggled when starting freelancing!

Katarina Floyd

Software Developer

My first year I made over 100k (May to march). I stay away from hourly pricing as much as possible but when I need to my rate starts at $140 and my biggest month ever being 30k. I don’t share this to gloat but in hopes this helps you or anyone find motivation to stick to it to find your version of success.
