Alongside with what Lauren and John said, potentially getting a testimonial from your current customer would help to show that you are reliable and can do a similar job! As you grow your freelance jobs, you can better show that you have a growing portfolio of similar work

The best contractors never have to look for work because work is always looking for them. The secret is relationships. Find the interior designers, developers, and contractors that are the busiest and most successful in your town and go build relationships with them. Prove yourself and earn their trust with great work that is delivered on time. Get a referral from the local company who is currently employing you to get your foot in the door if you need to. Good luck!

Hi Dakota Flanagan - I would look at some apps that have gig-style painter jobs where you can pick jobs that work with your schedule, or people can request you. Here's one: https://www.taskrabbit.com/
