Why Do People Search for Freelance Employment?


The list may be long but there are many reasons people search for freelance employment and for me as a freelance writer I think it had something to do with the word free!  Of course, not providing freelance writing for free – that would be nuts – but enjoying the free-dom to choose how and when I work.

Freelance employment allows people to earn extra income that jobs used to provide.  With the global economic crisis whether you work full time, part time or freelance you have to think of ways to earn extra income and enjoy your life along the way, and that is the greatest gift of freelance employment.

If you are searching for freelance employment don’t think it isn’t hard work because it can be but it can also be hugely satisfying.  One of the most important things to remember is time management but most people who work from home have great time management skills and if they don’t they soon will! 

One way to find freelance employment is to search online, easy isn’t it!  Just always remember as a freelancer to supply quality, expert material and you will have a winning formula.  Communicate regularly with your customers and give them updates on where you are at with the project so they are reassured you are on track. 

Make sure you both understand right from the beginning what is expected.  Send them samples to begin with so they have the opportunity to tweak anything at the start rather than at the end.  Freelance employment relies on a good rapport between freelancer and customer so make sure you have all those excellent relationship management skills up your sleeve to use .

Freelance employment could be your ticket to finally be your own boss and once you learn how it’s done you can escape the 9 – 5 but still earn valuable income today!

Freelance Writer Wish List!

Being a freelance writer, mainly writing for websites and Internet Marketing, I am going back to the drawing board and finally doing two things I love the most - helping others become successful whilst I enjoy the success too, and writing incredible website content.

What I figure is I love coaching and I love writing for websites so why not mix the two together and create my very own brand and products that will help others, especially stay at home parents, who want to discover all the secrets of a happy freelancer.  What better way to help others and myself become more financially secure and discover what all this freelance stuff is all about.

Over three years ago I started my journey where two mothers gave me the ideas and the inspiration to become a freelance writer.  Before that I knew very little of the freelance world, instead working full time trying to raise two kids with my husband but I knew there was something else I could do.

I loved working but wanted more time for the family because I didn't want to look back and think I had missed out somewhere.  So my story will be told in my new to be released CD so other mums and dads like me can have more choice and have the opportunity to raise more income.  Watch this space and if you want anything included just drop me an email and I will do my best!
