Welcome to Guerrilla Freelancing

Hello fellow freelancer! Welcome to the new freelance resource website – Guerrilla Freelancing. If you’re reading this right now you probably fall into one of three categories:

• Full Time Freelancing – Deep within the trenches of freelancing, you’ve left behind all back up and have nowhere to go but forward. This is the boat I am in and I personally find it full of excitement (albeit sometimes a bit rocky). I know I am not the only one and I hope that all of you do stick around this site and leave comments on articles you can weigh your valuable input on.
• Part Time Freelancing – You’re either part time freelancing while working a regular day job or you’re in a position to be able to work only part time as a freelancer. Maybe you’ve got a significant other that works full time which allows you the freedom to work as much, or as little as you want. You might also be part time freelancing in order to get your feet wet and make sure you’re able to go full fledge into the freelance world.
• Thinking about Freelancing – So you’re working a full time job (or maybe you’re currently unemployed) and you want to find out how to get into the wonderful world of freelance. You’ve been looking online and in book stores to find out what you need, where you can find jobs, ect. But somehow, things just aren’t clicking. It’s ok, we’ve got you covered here. Everyone starts from the beginning and I can assure you that we’ll be building from the bottom up to show you step by step on how to build your freelance career.

No matter what position you’re currently in, my goal is to make sure that the Guerrilla Freelancing website covers it for you. From the very, very beginning to the point you might be in 5-10 years down the road. I will not only share the advice and knowledge I have on freelancing and guerrilla freelancing, but I will also be enlisting the help of some other great freelancers who have built solid businesses for themselves to share their insights as well as interview some great freelancers and guerrilla business owners.

How did this site come together?

I was recently (as recent as 4-5 hours ago) discussing some things about business with a great freelancer by the name of Renee from Ribbons of Red (thank you Renee) and I explained to her about my idea on creating a freelance blog to help those of us who are still in the trenches and have not “made it” yet. She thought it was a great idea, and my little idea became a burning desire to build something useful for the freelance community.

As you can see at this current point (March 18th 2009) the site is just now being put together, but I urge you to subscribe to the rss feed in order to get our updates on when new things start happening around here.

If you have any tips or resources you’d like the readers of Guerrilla Freelancing to know about, please feel free to contact me and share. I’d love to hear from you.
