I Am Healed!

I just ran across a new site for people who freelance (and for people who need freelancers!) – The Freelance Nation lists freelance work opportunities. Very cool!

The Freelance Nation offers an easy-to-use interface that allows users to search for freelance projects by type or location. I very quickly found a couple of writing gigs that I’ll be checking into. There are a number of cities from around the US, and it looks like they’ll be adding new cities in the future. With many people out of work or seeking to supplement their income, there’s no doubt that The Freelance Nation will benefit freelance and contract workers.

The Freelance Nation benefits small businesses by offering an inexpensive way to contract both large and small tasks to freelancers. There are 23 categories and hundreds of sub-categories of jobs – plus employers can search for potential freelancers directly. If you own a home business, this is a great way to contract out those “little” jobs without actually hiring a 9-5 employee! Any sort of business will benefit from the creative staffing opportunity here – you could contract out short-term jobs, or hire a temporary employee quickly if someone gets sick. The possibilities are endless!

You can check out this list of freelance jobs and profile example to see how the site works, and post questions in the Freelance Forum. You might also wish to view the FAQ.
