WHAT IS FREELANCING?A freelancer is someone who doesn’t work for one company full-time, but is hired by different companies for certain jobs. For example, a magazine or website will have a core team of editors who hire freelance writers to write articles, or a TV production crew might hire freelance cameramen to work on one series of programmes.

Working on a contract basis for a variety of companies, as opposed to working as an employee for a single company. Freelancers are often considered to be self-employed, and have the freedom to pick and choose their projects and companies they would like to be associated with. A common profession for freelancing is writing; a writer then has the ability to submit their work to many different places, without being tied to any one company in particular.

WHAT IS 'OUTSOURCING‘???

• Outsourcing is a practice used by different companies to reduce costs by transferring portions of work to outside suppliers rather than completing it internally.

• Outsourcing is an effective cost-saving strategy when used properly. It is sometimes more affordable to purchase a good from companies with than it is to produce the good internally.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF FREELANCING?• Choose your work. Being a freelancer means you don’t have a boss telling you

what to do so you can say ‘no’ to jobs you don’t want. You might also get to work at home for specific projects. As long as your work is delivered to the deadline most clients won’t mind how and when you do it – making freelancing a good option for people who don’t want to work normal office hours.

• Better pay. Freelancers can negotiate your own rates with the companies who hire you. Companies are often prepared to pay freelancers a better rate than their own staff because they don’t have to pay for things like sick leave as part of the contract. The more experience you have then the more money you can ask for.

WHAT ARE THE DISADVANTAGES OF FREELANCING?

• Getting work. There are a lot of freelancers out there and getting your first few jobs can be hard. Just being good at what you do isn’t enough – you need to network, market yourself and make contacts because no-one will hire you if they don’t know you’re there! The workload can be unpredictable – sometimes you might be working all night to meet three deadlines in one week, while even the most successful freelancers have months where they get no work at all.

• Managing your money. Not only will you not receive a regular paycheque per month, you’ll also have to make all the tax and National Insurance arrangements employers would normally do for you. You need to register yourself as ‘self-employed’ with Inland Revenue, who can give you some advice. You’ll also need to remember to keep some money aside for times when you’re ill or there’s no work – and while it might be great to have a holiday any time you want, remember that no-one will pay you for it!

UPWORK.COMA great resource for skilled individual freelancersGreat for finding star individuals programmers, writers, virtual assistants, and marketersPros:• Largest number of contractors • Contractors are tested and verified• Simple and automated billing• Great time tracking • Employers also have ratings• No membership fees• Tons of proposals

Cons• Slightly expensive service fee for contractors, 10% • Less popular amongst teams

GURU.COM

A simple way to outsourceLearn what’s so great about Guru.comPros:• Project fee depends on level of Guru.com membership• Communication option makes project management easier • More US Based contractors

Cons• Monthly membership charges• Smaller talent pool

99designs.com is a wonderful market place with high paying rates but you should not depend on 99designs only. There is no doubt you can learn the designing by following different logo & other designs contests & but its hard to make a living. I suggest fellow freelancers to work on all freelancing websites specially elance.com & odesk.com along with their 99designs contests.

Pros:• 99designs like it’s name say it all, is very profitable for the buyers as they get 100s of

design options for their logo or website. • For new & less experienced graphic designers it is a heaven to learn what kind of work is

being accepted in the market & they can attain that quality in the matter of days if they participate in running contests.

• If the contest holder don’t decide a winner the prize will be distributed among all designers.Cons:• The chances of less experienced designers to get selected are very low because the master

& highly qualified designers are submitting their designs next to newbies work & their chances are very high to win the contest. It sometimes give frustration to the designers who are constantly working hard without any reward. Another issue with 99designs contests is that buyer have more than 30 days time to select the winner & that also make it herculean.
