Going by business forecasts, those not yet on the trend will eventually grab anything that teaches people how to become a freelance superstar. The majority of professionals who quit their day jobs to focus on freelance work earn more than they did when they were tied up to an eight-hour-day employment.

Take the Freelance Throttle

One of the most popular and highly rated courses on the subject is serial BIZ Experiences, author, blogger and speaker Seth Godin's Freelancer Course. This three-hour course promises to help you "Become Remarkable, Find Better Clients, and Do Work That Matters."

A freelancer himself, Godin will obliterate your doubts on whether freelancing is worth your while. In the course intro, you'll be convinced that "freelancing is a chance to do great work, a ticket to freedom, a school that trains you to become truly responsible, and a way to make a living by making a difference."

He says there are five types of freelancers — from generic mechanical turks to craftsmen and brands. The course takes you across different aspects of freelancing: from how to make a winning strategy, to setting prices, finding good clients, and telling your story.
