GoFreelance!
• • • • •

Always wanted to go freelance? Then a recession is a great time to try it. Companies outsource during leaner times because they want to save some money and only want to pay for the work completed, not the employee benefits.

A lot of times, companies even hire freelance professionals who they had just laid off a few months before. From the big business point of view, there is an obvious benefit: they get a worker who’s not just experienced but who is familiar with the product and the business; they won’t have to pay any benefits; and when the work is completed, the company can just fire the freelancer all over again and without the paperwork or severance package.

However, it may also present opportunities for a new freelancer. If you have skills that they are looking for, a company is more likely to “try you out” as a freelance professional than they are to commit to you in an employer/employee relationship.

This may open up more freelance work in the future or possible long-term employment if they are pleased with your work.

Businesses also tend to cut back on non-essential full-time staff and hire someone to do the work that they don’t need on a daily basis. This may present many opportunities for the freelancer to do ongoing special projects.

Above all, in a recession, companies worry about their bottom line first.

As a freelance professional, that gives you the following advantages:

1. Now you are, in some ways, more valuable than an employee.

2. You suddenly can create stability for your income by having a number of different employers.

3. No one employer can make or break your business.

4. You can even charge more per hour than an employed worker to make up for benefits because, for company looking for projects done in the short-term, that extra amount is worth it.

So if you are serious about trying freelance work, now is a great time. For freelancers, recessions can also be great time to grow (or start) your business.

You may think that it is too risky to start your own freelance business during an economic slowdown or recession. Would it surprise you to know that it is actually a great time to go freelance?

Why? It is simple. Companies are looking at many ways to cut costs and one of the easiest ways is to cut expensive staff. A full time employee not only has a salary, but also usually has a wide range of benefits and payroll taxes that the employer pays for his or her work. By cutting staff, they are actually able to pay freelancer contractors more per hour for their time than they were paying their employee and actually come out with more money in their pockets.

Therefore this type of work becomes what is known as a “Win-Win.” It allows the company to cut the cost of getting its work done and allows a professional to get paid well for his or her work.
How do you get started? The first step is finding a good freelance community like GoFreelance and search for work that you might enjoy and be successful doing.

Once you apply for a posting and get accepted, you simply work out the details with the company who hired you, perform the work and get paid.

Most people find that once companies use their services a few times, they can easily make a living from repeat business…especially when they are saving the company money at a time when their money is tight.

Is your 9-5 job job a grind? Maybe it is time for you to go freelance and become your own boss. People from all walks of life are finding that they can find a rewarding career in freelance work right from their own home.

Here are five of the hottest jobs for new freelancers who want to start right away:

Freelance Writer
Okay, so not everyone can be the next Stephen King and write a best-selling novel, but you’d be surprised at what level of writing can actually make you money online. If you have even a little talent as a writer, then the sky’s the limit as to how much you can make. From writing reports for companies, to product reviews, or even offering a resume writing service, there’s always a need for writers to provide these services all over the world.

Virtual Assistant
If you’ve got access to a computer, a good Internet connection, and you have a decent set of organizational skills, then you may want to look at becoming a virtual assistant. Many small to medium sized companies are now outsourcing a lot of their administrative work. Instead of using a recruitment agency, they prefer to use people working from home. So, if you can work a spreadsheet and answer calls, this might be ideal.

Fill out Surveys Online
Probably the easiest way to get started making money as a freelancer from home, completing surveys offers a way for you to get paid for your opinion. This usually comes in the form of companies wanting to judge the marketplace before launching a new product, and they’ll ask for your input via an online survey.

However, you need to sign up to as many companies as possible and hope you get selected for more than the average amount of surveys to make good money. But, just like the rest, it can be done with commitment, hard work and just a little bit of luck!

Taking pictures. Do you have a digital camera and an internet connection? Then you can get paid to take pictures of everyday items. Magazines, online e-zines and online companies pay very well for good snapshots.

Internet research. Companies pay workers to research the internet for competitive products or services and report it back to them. This is great for someone who loves to spend time surfing the web. All you need is an internet connection and you are ready to get paid.

If these jobs sound interesting, then there has never been an easier time to go freelance and find cool jobs like these. You don’t need years of schooling to get started either. Just sign with GoFreelance… and you could start working today right from your own home.
