I have recently started an interesting employment project for a local college, who have employed me for a short erm project, to imput questions into a computer, in order to set up an online exam/testing system. It's got me thinking that there must be hundreds of companies out there who have little projects like this where a freelance writer would be perfect.
If most of you who read this blog (and you must have a reason) think that people like small business owners, teachers, web designers, employment agencies, hoteliers....etc, could not employ a freelance writer, do not and would not ever NEED a freelance writer, then think again.
Right now, at a time when businesses all over the world are struggling to recover from the credit crisis, employing a freelancer might be a wonderful alternative to hiring a temp, or even a full time staff member. The opportunites are endless - from simple data entry projects, entering text into websites, or writing descriptions for catalogues or ebay pages. And because you only pay for the hours the freelancer puts in, your not paying for coffee breaks, or lulls when work is slack in the office.
So what are your thoughts? Is there a future in the corporate world for freelance writers?
