How do you give yourself a promotion as a freelancer?

When you're working in a brick and mortar business, you will likely earn promotions and move up through the ranks and earn more money along with each promotion. But, as a freelancer, there is no one there to promote you up and your success is based directly on your own efforts and not left up to the whims of an employer. If you earn more, it's a result of better marketing/promotion tactics, smart pricing of services and repeat/referral business.

And, while you may never get the formal recognition of success as you would with a regular job, there are still a few things you can do to promote yourself up so that others recognize your achievements.

• Be vocal about your success. If you land a big freelancing job which pays more, tweet about it; share it to Facebook. Let others know how valued you are.
  
• Take pride in depositing your earnings into your bank
  
• Give yourself an official title or nickname which is indicative of your niche
  
• Throw a real life party in your own honor, celebrating a recent success, such as 100th freelance sale
