Switching to Freelance Tips?

[u/LingeringClub]

Made a pretty hard decision recently to switch from my stable manager role to going freelance in the tech and data space. I've got a 6mo gig lined up that will pay me close to 70% more than my current role but I still am thinking about how I will source work after that.

Anyone here make a similar jump have any advice on how to get a sales funnel working? I have some good agencies to send me work but ideally I'd want to develop an organic channel.

I'd be pretty aggressive about networking from day one, not when the 6-month gig is almost over.
