Proposal in your voiceCopy
Hi there, a 90 day calendar only works if the first month earns trust. I would start by auditing your top ten posts, then plan around the questions your buyers ask before a demo.
Sound familiar?
The Nigerian freelancer lifecycle nobody warned you about.
You know you are good. But between the client who haggles every invoice, the dollar rate anxiety, and zero resources built for your reality, freelancing starts to feel like a trap.
You quote your rate. They say it is too much and somehow you believe them.
You spend hours on a proposal. The client ghosts you or hires someone cheaper.
You apply to everything because you cannot tell which jobs are worth your time.
Every resource online assumes you bill in dollars to US clients. Your reality is different.
You are learning in isolation. Nobody around you is doing this at the level you want to reach.
You wonder if freelancing is even worth it, or if you should just get a regular job and call it.

Why it matters
Same freelancer. Same job. A very different reply.
Clients skim dozens of proposals. The ones that get opened name the problem, prove you can solve it, and quote a rate you can defend.

About the founder
Built by someone still in the field.
Maryam
Online Business Manager and multi brand founder, Lagos and Barcelona
Most freelance education is built by people who left freelancing years ago to become full time coaches. Your Freelance BFF is different.
I am Maryam, an Online Business Manager, virtual assistant and founder working between Lagos and Barcelona. I know what it costs to figure this out alone. I built the resource I wish I had when I started.
This is not a course. It is the community I am building with you, for us. The rate conversations in naira when every resource quotes dollars. The client objections. The exchange rate anxiety. The mindset it takes to back yourself in an environment that does not always encourage it.
- Online Business Manager with an active client portfolio
- Founder of multiple brands across niches
- Experience across sales and operations

What is Your Freelance BFF?
Your Freelance BFF is a community for Nigerian freelancers who want to earn in dollars, pounds, euros and naira. It is not a course. Members get a five module curriculum, bi-weekly live coaching, a private member community, done-for-you templates and income dashboards, and GigBFF, a members only AI tool that helps you win freelance jobs.
What is GigBFF?
GigBFF is an AI job analysis tool built by Your Freelance BFF. You paste any job listing and it gives you a fit score out of 100, a client red flag check, a fair rate recommendation based on global market rates, and a full proposal written in your own voice.
Can I use GigBFF without a membership?
No. GigBFF is only available to Your Freelance BFF members. It comes with both plans, and your monthly Sparks are added the moment you join.
How much does Your Freelance BFF cost?
The All Access plan is ₦15,000 a month and includes 20 GigBFF Sparks every month. The Annual plan is ₦165,000 a year, which works out to one month free, and includes 30 Sparks every month. Founding members keep their price for as long as they stay.
What is a Spark?
A Spark is a GigBFF credit. One Spark powers one complete analysis: your fit score, the client red flag check, a fair rate recommendation and a full proposal in your voice.
What happens if I run out of Sparks?
Members can add 20 Sparks for ₦2,000 at any time. Monthly Sparks refresh with each billing month, and top up Sparks stay valid for 12 months.
I am just starting out. Is this for me?
Yes. The curriculum starts with foundations and builds step by step, and GigBFF helps you judge every job honestly, which matters most when you are still finding your feet.
What does the founding price lock mean?
If you join as one of the first 50 members, your price stays the same for as long as you remain a member, even when the price increases for new members.
Can I cancel?
Yes. The monthly plan can be cancelled anytime from your account. If you cancel and rejoin later, the founding price no longer applies.
