I have had such a great deal of success at FreelanceMom, I don't even know where to begin. First of all, this is a wonderful place to find information, gigs, networking advice - everything a Freelancer could possibly want or need to grow their business.
Over the last year, I've created a logo for a woman's clothing mall and a button for a WAHM advertisement. Those were both wonderful jobs and one of them became a great networking opportunity, as well.
Recently, I answered a post regarding updating a forum, and that has turned into a long term gig, with me updating not only the forum, but all of their web sites, as well. Thank you Lori! :)
Also, Lori has outsourced her article submission work to me in the past, and continues to do so when I have the time.
But by far my biggest success story is the work I found for customer support by networking with the Forum's owner, Lori. This gig has turned into a long term job and the owner is just incredible! I've moved from doing customer support into becoming the accounts manager, handling all of the bookkeeping, reconciliation, depositing and other financial aspects of the business. I've had this job for well over a year and I feel very certain that I will continue to have it for quite some time. It's a wonderful joy in the freelance world to be able to count on a gig, and that is what I have found.
I feel truly blessed to have found these gigs and for Freelance Mom - thanks!
