Freelancing can be done by the students studying in school, unemployed people, and senior citizens who took retirement. But all the people can’t afford a computer or laptop. But you can do freelancing from your mobile. If you have the right skill and interest in doing it.
Like other jobs or businesses. Freelancing on mobile also has pros and cons.
Pros
1. Workspace flexibility
Unless other jobs and work you don’t have to sit at your PC or Desk. You can work from anywhere. You can work while travelling, sleeping, or sitting in the washrooms anywhere where you have a good internet connection and charge.
2. Flexible working hours
You don’t need to fix any working hours. You can work in the morning, noon, evening, or midnight, at anytime that you wish you do.
3. Response rate
After hearing the notification sound from your clients you can quickly respond to them. In which you can maintain a high response rate. But in pc, you should start and open the platform and then respond which may take some time to respond and a chance of a low response rate.
