		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;re considering getting involved in work at home opportunities, it&#8217;s important that you know how to avoid work at home scams. Unfortunately, legitimate work at home positions while certainly available are often buried under piles of scams. One of the very first things you can do, is to research any opportunity before you sign up. All too often, work-at-home companies are in reality only trying to sell you a list, much of which turns out to be information you could have obtained free, or worse yet scams themselves. A good rule of thumb, is that if it sounds too good to be true it probably is! In fact, make no mistake about it-working at home is no cakewalk and it certainly is no get rich quick scheme. If you have somebody approach you and tell you how they made $1000 a day, think again! Stop and consider the rate you would have to be making in order to make $1000 for an eight hour day. The reality, for many freelancers is set at the bottom of the scale, you&#8217;ll make about $50 a day and at the top of the scale perhaps upwards of four times that. I&#8217;m not [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How problematic is procrastination when freelancing? Procrastination hounds all of us at some time or another, and since more of us have access to social networking sites, instant messengers, and e-mail they are even more distractions to keep us from our goals. For those who are freelancing, procrastination is even more problematic. Because of the number of distractions, it isn&#8217;t unusual for freelancer to discover that they have spent hours where they intended to spend minutes. This time can be spent on social networking sites, it can be spent reading news, or it can be spent on instant messengers or reading e-mails. Here are some of the challenges facing freelancing professionals who spend too much time procrastinating. Impact on deadlines One of the biggest problems with procrastination is it can cause a freelancer to miss important deadlines. While those who work in and &#8220;brick-and-mortar&#8221; environment, where one single missed deadline may not be a problem, or, someone else can pick up the slack, freelancing means one person one client. A missed deadline could mean a lost client. If the freelancing professional consistently misses deadlines, they will soon develop a reputation for being unreliable. Impact on quality Freelancing means that you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For those who are considering starting a career as a freelance writer, you may wonder what tools you need to get started. While there are some tools that are required, there are others that are optional. Understanding which tools are a necessity and which ones are a convenience can often be an extremely fine line. From personal experience, there are tools I did not use in the beginning but I do use now. Let&#8217;s first take a look at some of the tools you must have in order to succeed as a freelance writer. Internet connection: it goes without saying you need a stable Internet connection in order to succeed as a freelance writer. Fortunately, most areas now offer high-speed Internet (at least in the United States). Contact your Internet provider and find out what they are &#8220;downtime&#8221; has been over the past 12 months. This will give you a great idea of how reliable it is. Unfortunately, regardless of how unreliable it might be you may be tied to that provider. Computer: clearly your computer has to be dependable. Lost files can result in hours of lost work, loss of revenue, and even the loss of credibility. You may [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I found a posting on Craigslist (and this is not against Craiglist as I&#8217;ve picked up some legitimate jobs there) only to find out that what I had run into was a MLM.  The posting said they were looking for people to process insurance applications. No up front fees yadda yadda yadda. So, off my resume went and a few days later I got an email. A woman emails me back &#8211; got your resume thanks for applying &#8211; the job is basically filling out these applications, take a look at our website. So, off I go and look at it and lo and behold I find the &#8216;classic&#8217; MLM there. So, I go to the Better Business Bureau (which by the way I&#8217;m told in this email how they&#8217;ve been members of the Texas BBB for ions of time) and what do I see &#8211; that the BBB has DROPPED them from membership for deceptive practices. So, I email this lady back and I play stupid &#8211; and say &#8211; hey this sounds like an MLM to me &#8211; she assures me it&#8217;s not that she&#8217;s simply &#8216;signing people up for insurance&#8217;. So, I asked her where she [...]]]></description>
