Portfolios get you hired to create for others, not clients to create independently.
Search Google for portfolio examples, and you're bound to find about 50 from the jump that is all identical in execution. Here's an image of the work I did, here's who it's for, and here's how I accomplished it.

Some of the best gigs will always come from word of mouth and not by way of some overly "mocked-up" portfolio.
