Finding
Freelance Jobs or Career That Works for You

Freelance jobs and being a free agent is all the rage when it comes to have a
satisfying career.
Free Agent? Visions of someone dressed in black, spying on others comes to mind.
Undoubtedly, it seems most individuals are unfamiliar with the term. Let me
clarify what a "Free Agent" is: Someone who works entirely for themselves.
Having the ability to work when, where and how long. Generally having a home
office and possibly a young child in their lap wreaking havoc with their laptop.
An individual who has become fed up with heavy traffic, inconsiderate bosses and
spending about 2 hours per day with their
families. Other names for a Free Agent: Freelancer, Independent Professional,
Self Employed or Independent Contractor. Also known 1099ers by the IRS.
There are roughly 26 MILLION Free Agents working at freelance jobs and
telecommuting positions in the USA alone. Remarkably, most of
these individuals had to dump the security of a consistent job and strike out on
their own. I can guarantee you that most will never look back and have decided
freelance jobs and work are worth the risk in the end. But what does a
Free Agent do? Well, about anything he/she wants to! We all have skills,
abilities that we are rather good at. Here are a few jobs that a Free Agent
might do: Freelance Web Design, Freelance Editing, Freelance Writing, Freelance Desktop publishing/Typesetter,
Freelance Consulting, Freelance Data Entry, Freelance Report Production, Startup Services, Transcription,
Translation, Word Processing, Design, Illustration, Music, Photography,
Freelance Accounting, Bookkeeping Financial Planning, Loans, Marketing, Advertising,
telemarketing, Consulting, Transcription ,Concierge, Party Planning, Relocation,
Vacation Planning, Career Counseling, Tutoring, Collections, Broker,
Billing…etc.
This is just a VERY SMALL list of what you could do! The possibilities are
endless for freelance jobs. Now you may be saying, "But, I am not very good at marketing myself!"
Join the club! Neither am I! But with knowledge and persistence, even the most
timid can succeed! Doubting yourself or not believing will reflect in your
search. Be positive. I am a firm believer in what you toss out into the universe
will come back to you. This works for the good and for the bad. So STAY
POSITIVE! Take care of yourself - that's a big priority. Also remember no job
will replace the unconditional love of your family. And the size of your house
or make of your care has no reflection on who you are as a person. Finding
freelance work (to me), is not about becoming rich and owning some big ole
honkin house and the latest Acura. It's about allowing me freedom. Freedom to be
with the people I love. Allow yourself to dream - start moving in the direction
you want to go. Take small jobs at first. Attempt a few projects that might
challenge you. This is how you build up confidence and a worthwhile resume!
Listed below are probably the BEST websites for marketing
yourself. They make it very EASY! You will need to submit a "portfolio".
Basically a breakdown of your skills. Most of these websites will walk you
through the entire process. Once you are in the database, employers looking to
outsource their work can easily find and hire you! I HIGHLY recommend submitting
your resume or portfolio to everyone of these companies:
