Getting started in Freelancing

March 23, 2007 | Comments (0) | Filed under: Programming

While I was browsing the web today, I came across an interesting post over at North x East on How to get started with your Freelance Career. I know a lot of our readers are interested in this area of potential self employed income and after all the emails I received on our recent review of Guru.com it appears that many of us out there could use a little advice on getting the ball rolling.

This article is very well written and includes many interesting points for up and coming entrepreneurs. They cover issues with everything from branding to good sites to find jobs to get yourself off and running. They also discuss many of issues usually vaguely covered such as what to charge clients and what to do if someone refuses to pay. A high quality read that I recommend for anyone who wants to get into the freelancing game.

If you’ve had some experience in the freelancing game, and have some advice for others getting started, we’d love to hear from you. Drop by our comments and let us know about your experiences.
