This is the question I mostly face by online freelance starters.  Here is my guide to Write Effective Bid Proposal:

- First select project and bid requirements, that you know you can deliver.

- The most effective method I find is to question the client/buyer, but these should be wise questions.

- Read the requirements carefully and list down all questions that comes to your mind, review them and remove any basic questions, but ask questions that show your client that you understand his requirements (or at-least try to understand) and understand the domain too.

- In start if you know the client name (from his profile or message) then start with “Hi ClientName,” this also shows that you read his message carefully. Then simply list your questions in points.

- Do not write lengthy paragraphs, and give proper one line spacing between each point. Make it easy to read.

- So first Questions (or you can add a one liner in start, saying that you understand the requirements but have some questions) and then mention your plus points, mention your experience in similar projects.

- Read the client requirements carefully and mention your plus points based on what client asked for, for example if he mention that he want good testing, then mention clearly that you will do the testing or similar.

- Always try to clear all requirements in start. This shows that you are serious about the project and can complete it too. It helps yourself in doing the project too. (Remember winning the bid is only first step, main issue is always to get it signed off and paid, so be ready for that in start)

- Its better to give a bid amount in first message. But for some complex project or where you are not sure, then you can mention that you will place bid after his answers to clarify requirements.

- For sites that does not allow longer messages in bid, place short message in bid and then send a detailed message with questions as a private message.

Hopefully this will help you guys writing your bid proposals.

Question & Answer

What are the objectives, scope and limitations of outsourcing? What do you mean by freelancer with respect to outsourcing?

First to the first part of your question on objectives, scope and limitations of outsourcing

Objectives and Scope of outsourcing:

Let me cover both of these here. Objectives and Scope of outsourcing a particular task can be muti-tier, and mostly depends on the need of a company. But usually these are:

• Minimizing cost, by outsourcing costly task/operation to cheaper facility, may be within country or outside.
• Minimizing workload on in house team.
• The tasks in hand is out of current capabilities of in house team.
• Acquiring those skills, required for outsourced task, is not beneficial for in house team for long term.
• When in house team can not meet the deadlines, for different reasons, so objective is to meet deadline.

Similarly the scope vary based on the situation and conditions.

Limitations:

Virtually it has no limits, but in reality there are few like:

• Must be managed properly by a manager who knows his work.
• Understanding the task in exact manner as client require.
• For tasks that needed to be done onsite.
• The team who actually do the task, can not always held liable in long run.

Freelancer with respect to Outsourcing

Freelancer plays a vital role in outsourcing, specially when the outsourcing is done to save cost (which is the objective in most cases) freelancers are the ones who get a chance to prove their skills and make some reasonable money, by cutting down management and infrastructure cost.

Nowadays there are too many websites like vWorker.com, Freelancer.com, eLance.com, oDesk.com and others, that offer projects in different domain to freelancers. If you examine projects on these sites most of these are outsourced work, direct customer rarely use these sites. But ts used mostly by individuals and small to medium companies, who want to cut down their cost or want to save time on their development, and in some cases due to lack of their own expertise.

In countries like India, Pakistan, China and Russia. There are several freelancers who were able to develop their own small companies from the outsourced work from more developed countries like USA, UK, Germany and Australia. You can say that it works out for both sides in most of the cases.

So we can easily say that outsourcing still rocks and give results, when managed carefully and does help freelancers and small companies.

The key as a freelancer for you is consistency and always keeping your commitments, specialy for outsourced work.

A cash cow for the enterprising, the Internet is littered with opportunities to make a fast buck. While it rarely qualifies as a solitary source of income, the Net can easily help you supplement it. However, the amount you earn depends on the time and effort invested. Go through these 20 options and find out which ones work for you.

Blogging

If you’re a passionate closet writer who wants to be published but can’t find a way to do so, make each keystroke your way to wealth by penning your own blog. Starting a blog doesn’t require extensive technical skills but it’s important that you have expertise in the field you are writing on. This will attract visitors to your site. Building a large following will enable you to earn profit by luring advertisers, writing paid reviews or getting commissions for promoting other people’s products.

Paid Writing

If maintaining a blog is difficult for you but you still want to indulge your passion for freelance writing, you can jot down articles for other blogs or sites such as Weblogs, Helium or PayPerPost. Writing an e-book can also be a good option. E-books are investment free, with no cost for printing and shipping. If you have a strong command over languages, you can become a copy editor, where Webmasters will pay you to read articles and correct grammatical errors, sentence fragments, etc.

[Tips for Freelance Writers]

e-Tuitions/Webinars

The demand for tutors is high and growing. So, if you like helping others learn, e-teaching could be the earning ticket for you. All you need to become an online tutor is expertise in your subject and a few spare hours per week. TutorVista, e-tutor, SmartThinking and Tutor.com are some of the sites you can enroll with. If you gain a good reputation as a coach, you could even conduct Webinars-lectures or seminars transmitted over the Net. College and university students are willing to pay to gain entry to a well-respected Webinar.

Affilliate/Reseller

For those who have the knack of selling, one of the best ways to make money online is to become an affiliate/reseller. An affiliate is a person who gets a commission for selling every product that he promotes, whether on his Website or through any other avenue such as eBay. You don’t have to own the product. You only need to sign up for an affiliate program with a company and start selling its products under your referral link. Firms such as Commission Junction or Click Bank have a large pool of products.

Buying/Selling domains

Buying and selling domain names is another way to make money from home and requires very little investment or time. You can buy domains at their registration prices or even cheaper and trade them at a profit. However, always research on sites such as sedo.co.uk, afternic.com, ebay.com or other domain auction sites to get an estimate of the hottest selling names. The best way to find good ones is to use terminated domain lists, which contain several expired names that are back in the pool.

Freelancing for Professionals

Freelancing is a great option for professionals who are experts in their respective trades and know how to ensure customer satisfaction. Various freelancing and project-oriented sites allow companies that need help to describe their projects. Freelancers and small businesses offer bids, ideas or proposals, from which the buyers can choose what they find most suitable. Websites such as Elance cover everything from programming and writing to data entry and design, while RentACoder focuses on software programming.

Advertising

You can sell space on your Website or blog for advertisements and you earn when these ads are clicked by visitors to your site. The sorting and placing of ads is free. The profitability of pay-per-click advertising depends on the traffic level of the Website and, most importantly, on the clickthrough rate and cost per click. Google AdSense is the most popular option, while others are BidVertiser, Text Link Ads and Blogads. Direct banner and RSS feed are some other forms of online advertising.

GPT Programme

GPT or Get-paid-to sites are becoming increasingly popular among teens. You get paid for signing up for free Websites, newsletters, playing games and filling out online surveys. These are suitable for people who don’t have a skill set but want to earn extra money. Taking online surveys is simple- register with a few legitimate, paid survey sites and answer questions. The topics range from shopping to politics. This might not help you make a living, but you can earn good pocket money. Contests2win is one of the trusted GPT Websites.

Online Marketing

Once a Website is created and optimised for search engine (SEO), the SEM or Search Engine Marketing begins. A treasure trove lies hidden here. An SEO/SEM expert, who is responsible for marketing a Website, can promote it in various ways. These include article marketing, writing press releases, forum posting, blog posting, submitting your site to directories and search engines, social bookmarking, etc. Most companies don’t do this in-house and pay you to conduct the SEM for them.

Making Themes

As more and more people seek an online presence, the demand for Website templates and WordPress (Blog) themes will keep increasing. If you are good at Web designing and coding, you can earn a lot from designing Web themes. In this segment, there are mainstream Websites, such as TemplateMonster and ThemeForest, which act as a marketplace where you can sell your themes. Templates are sold and priced depending on the rights and features that are bundled with them.

Selling photos

If you enjoy photography and are good with a camera, you could be sitting on a huge reserve of revenue. There are people who will be interested in your collection of images. Nowadays, it’s easy to take your photos to the public, providing a convenient way to build a secondary income stream. Many stock photo agencies, such as Fotolia, Dreamstime and Shutterstock, offer incentives for people to earn from their photos.

Support & service

Providing coding or fixing other Webmasters’ issues is another great way to earn extra bucks. There are simple jobs ranging from adding a script to setting up sites, but knowledge of Web coding is essential. One can offer support for Web CMS (content management systems) like Drupal or Joomla. After you are comfortable with your own installation, you can help other people to set these up and configure them.

Stock/Forex trading

Joining the stock/forex market may seem a bit risky. However, you can start small and continue researching till you gain experience in this area. Once you do, it will be easy to earn from exchanging foreign currencies and/or stocks. Their rates fluctuate depending on supply and demand, and economic and political influences in the world. The aim of any trader is to spot which currency/stock is likely to rise or fall in value against another. The more time you put in, the more you will earn.

Selling your own brand

If you have a flair for designing cool images, don’t bother about creating your own inventory. As long as your design can be printed on a product, you can pocket some money. You can upload designs on various Websites such as CafePress, and if somebody orders these designs, the company will print them and distribute the products. It could be designs for T-shirts, hats, bags, books, posters, calendars, greeting cards, etc. You will receive a commission for each sale. Other such sites include Lulu and Zazzle.

Virtual Assistant

Small businesses always need help in running their processes, but may not be willing to hire a full-time employee. As a virtual assistant, you are expected to perform practically any administrative task that a traditional secretary or assistant would, such as make travel reservations, handle expense reimbursements or pay bills. You can do it from the comfort of your home, interacting with clients either online or by phone. Your expertise will decide how much moolah you rake in.

Inbound call centre

Many companies, who are facing space constraints, especially those in metro cities, prefer to hire workers outside their offices or outsource certain processes. You can set up an inbound call centre at home to handle such jobs. Research different companies that are outsourcing their work as they may have opportunities for inbound call centre agents. You can work for more than one company. This can be either a part-time or fulltime engagement, depending on your need.

You Tube

If there’s a dramatic performer hidden inside you who craves applause and adulation, upload yourself on YouTube. You can be a filmmaker, musician or comedian who wants a wider audience. Your earnings will come from ads displayed on your video page. This process is similar to the pay-per-click advertising program common to other Websites and blogs. Sites such as Flixya and Mediaflix can be helpful in this regard.

Researching for others

Don’t be morose if you can’t write, design or code. Lack of talent cannot stop you from making money online. If you’re willing to work hard for a few hours a week, you can take up simple research jobs for other people who don’t have the time to do it themselves. You could search for opportunities in organisations that provide funding for research and offer to assist them through online investigation.

Building Applications

With smartphones gaining popularity, the demand for their applications, or apps as they are popularly known, has also shot up. There are over 3 million apps for the iPhone and over a million apps in Google’s Android market. Most of these are selling like hot cakes. Developing and selling your own smartphone app is becoming a lucrative way to make money on the Internet. Apps cost virtually nothing to develop and entail no storage or shipping costs. So they enjoy the best profit margins.

Transcription

Medical transcription involves making written copies of oral material dictated by doctors or other medical experts. These may include history and physical reports, clinical notes, consultation notes, reports, letters, psychiatric evaluation and so on. The dictated material needs to be transcribed swiftly and accurately, which is the most challenging aspect of the job. To become a medical transcriptionist, you need to have a good knowledge of medical terminology and a high typing speed along with accuracy.

But the problem that I am facing is in preparing a portfolio of my work. All the projects (16 projects) that I have worked on was done under my previous organization and I cannot show them as my work. If I am gonna register on Freelancing sites such as Elance, FreeLancer, oDesk etc I have nothing to display as projects done by me? I wish to show my work to people but still I can’t. Please guide me, what should I do?

Thanx,

Hi Nikhil,

First of all sorry dear, I delayed replying to your question, but thats due to some work overload and then some personal matters. Anyway here is my feedback for you. Let me put my feedback in points or you:

- Be Positive, I believe these days there are not to many people who has skills with wireless device programming. So you have a skill whose demand is growing now. Thats your major positive.

- Off course you can not mention the projects you done during a job as your own, but you can mention them as your projects while working for your employer, People do understand this. So mentioning them is fine, but you can not show them as demo.

- Build a demo program of your own, a small one that shows at least some basic skills, you can give demo of that to your potential clients.

- I recommend to put together a webpage, simply listing your skills, mentioned your projects on job and providing link to download your self made demo, you  can call it your portfolio page, just make it simple html page, you can gradually update it later with time, Just remember every journey starts with first step. So take the first step with positive thinking.

- Now on different freelancing sites, keep on searching for projects and post low bids, and in your bids encourage buyers to visit your profile page and check the demo you made. + for initial projects offer comparatively low price, once you win couple of projects, you can update your rates.

- Also remember to do not prepare a general bid response, but write your bids/proposal based on project requirements, and always be honest.

- Remember creation of profile is not a one day activity, you put it together once, but you keep on updating it regularly, at least once a month.

Hope this will help you to some extent, and answer your question.

Wish you of best of luck, you are welcome to ask more.

At every customer-focused company there is a need to give the vital customer experience, from the CEO on down. What gets gone in translation is the extreme impact that delivering this level of customer service, or failing to do so, has on a company’s bottom line.

Consider the contact of a customer’s experience when contacting your company: a pleased customer normally tells one to three people about a fine experience, while an unhappy customer talks to as many as 10 people about the terrible experience. Businesses today are attaining an inflexion point where their customers are insisting more from their communications with customer service agents. Your customers want to talk with somebody who knows their wants without comprehensive clarifications or constant replication.

The freelance employee model has proven to be the most efficient method for companies to address the disputes they face with their accessible customer contact results. These comprise customer happiness, agent superiority, business flexibility and business stability.

There are significant advantages to using freelance customer service workers that eventually result in a win-win-win condition for your company, your customers and the negotiators.

Call centers are typically constructed in areas with a population searching for hourly salary jobs. In the freelance call center job the work is send to the worker through different resource like email or post or from a call. You can do your work while staying at home with your parents and family members. A freelance call center job is also reasonable for those persons who have some physical disabilities but have good communication skills with other people.

The proportion of agents with some college education is more than 75 percent among agents working from home, compared to 20 percent or less among agents in traditional contact centers. Similarly, the average age range of agents working in freelance contact centers is 35-40, compared to 18-23 for agents in traditional, physical contact centers. With increased education levels and higher average age comes amplified adulthood and professionalism. These freelance call center employees therefore bring a broader range of work and life experience that lets them to be more compassionate and understanding when on the phone with your customers.

Idleness:

Another important benefit of freelance call center outsourcing is the exclusive opportunity to create a true, fully-redundant service offering. Traditional call centers can apply superfluous hardware and software transportations to give high systems availability, but being able to route calls and data to an alternative location in an emergency is not very helpful if the agents all live near the primary facility.

Building comparable multi-location redundancy in a home-based employee model, with agents dispersed over wide geographic areas, provides the ultimate redundant infrastructure.

Tangible Business Benefits:

While the freelance employee model offers a figure of definite operational advantages, the true test of the model’s success is demonstrated by the business results reported by companies using freelance agents.

Because of advantages like higher quality agents, scalability and redundancy, companies using the freelance employee typically see an increase in key customer service indexes and higher customer fulfillment. In addition to customer satisfaction, companies understand improved employee productivity through better one-call resolution rates, higher conversion rates, and higher average order size. It is important to figure in the reduced recruiting burden, increased employee retention rates and reduced training costs, all of which leads, ultimately, to amplified productivity and a greater ROI for your call center operations.

Recruiting, training and management of freelance agents is a very different plan then in a traditional center – one that must be learned before it is realized. The Gartner Group has stated that 60 percent of companies that try to build a freelance agent solution will fail. This is for the same reasons that we see large, traditional bricks and mortar centers losing ground to smaller companies that are able bring a new approach and mindset to the recruiting, training and management of home-based employees. Finding a company with a proven track record of success managing freelance employees is the correct decision.

Freelancing sites present employment to people who are hopeful to make their own individuality and work for numerous buyers instead of one employer. Correspondingly, freelancing sites assist all those who want to get their work done earlier and inexpensively by outsourcing it to freelancers from all over the world.

Therefore, you can call all these freelancing sites, sort of agencies where both, the supplier and purchasers meet so that some of you get work and some of you get the work done. All sites are consumer friendly; however each one of these has a set of regulations, which they anticipate the purchasers as well as the providers to pursue.

The system of payment here is escrow, that is the consumer, is required to lock in the amount of the project, with the site; the sum is free to the freelancer after end of the project. This way the buyer need not worry that the freelancer will take money and not deliver the goods, and the freelancer can work with the calm mind that the money is locked in safe and sound and will be paid to him after he completes the job.

After the project is acknowledged, the freelancer and the buyer both have to pay definite amount as commission to the site, this is usually 10% of the amount bid on. Unless you are salaried member of this site, you will not need paying any commission on the project you have posted or won.

Are you pleased with the job done by your freelancer? Yes, then you can charge him as the best, not quite happy, you can rate him something else. You are also permitted to leave feedback so that the subsequent person knows about the professionalism and excellence of work of the freelancer. As a purchaser and as a freelancer, you need to be cautious about this, since your reviews will help freelancer find work, and the reviews from the freelancer will help you find improved freelancers.

There are numerous sites for you to try; some of these do not let the freelancers to bid until they become salaried members, whereas some of them only charge money after you earn money from the buyer not earlier. Therefore, you should take a look at the way the system of each site works before you start working with the site.

Freelancing is a thriving business, there are numerous people who have done freelancing since a long time through these sites and have made good money, and quite a few who got their jobs done through these sites, all are pleased, so you can try out how freelancing works for you.

Here I will make a quick some of the top article directories site that I use to post articles for back links and promotion of my services. The review is based on my personal experience with these article directories.

- articlesbase.com: This is a good one. Fast article approval, Nice interface and Easy to use.

- ezinearticles.com: Most popular article directory, if your account is a fresh, it can take upto 15 days to approve your article, but things get better as your number of articles increase. Good in pointing out the errors in case they disapprove your article. Poor user interface.

- selfgrowth.com: They are ok, some time they review your article quickly but not always. I am not sure on there strategy. But they have a good and reliable interface.

- deosaie.com: A good site, to the  point, no fuss. There engine also add images to your articles in some cases. Neat and clean interface.

- isnare.com: Their paid service is good, but with free account, no guarantee when articles can get approved, may take 15 to 20 days. I didn’tt like their interface too, non professional.

- articlesalley.com: This is just and ‘ok’ site. But not always very reliable, because previously it let us post articles. Then when we try to post more, it has bug that is not letting us do so, we sent them an email and they fixed it, it worked but later there comes another bug that does not let us post or edit more articles, an since then we left posting there. No good interface.

- articledashboard.com: Premium account is good, but on your free account, no guarantee on when your articles can get approvals, can take 15 to 20 days. Personally don’t like it as they force you to make payment to get articles listed easily.

- articlesnatch.com: Another ‘ok’ article directory site. Not much reliable in terms of up-time but overall its fine.

Note that I have listed some of the top article directories site and my experience with them, but these sites can get your article rank on search engines easily.

The “standards” are the most normally played and usually requested tunes you get on the performance. They are the classics from Jazz, Swing, Rock, R&B and Pop that public anticipate hearing and are a real must if you plan to do higher paid function and wedding work. Explore the websites of function bands in your area then have a look at their list. Download and learn these tunes to the best of your skills and your musicianship will amplify vividly. You may not like all the tunes but you’re sure to find some that you really enjoy listening to and playing.

3) Read:

The capability to read charts and make your own charts for a freelance drummer will let you to play songs with negligible practice and learn a large body of work rapidly. This ability is essential the higher up the musical ladder you climb. Sometimes you will be given a chart and projected to play it there and then; sometimes you will have a day to study. You’ll locate yourself in these challenging conditions so keep your reading abilities sharp – it will assist you a lot and boost the possibilities of getting calls from bandleaders.

4) Sing:

A freelance drummer who can sing backing vocals is a extremely marketable commodity for most club, wedding and function bands. If you can sing then work on your chops and let people be familiar about it. You’ll be presenting an actual service and it’s a good point of separation between you and the other drummers in your town.

5) Be A Professional:

One of the most significant things as a freelance drummer is your stage of professionalism. People desire to work with drummers who are dependable and fun to be around. Stay positive and always ready for your work.

Whatever you choose to do over the long term, the abilities you develop as a freelancer and the links you make will give you a good start in the professional industry as a freelance drummer.

Every time when I look at myself, I fall down on my knees and say thanks to my lucky stars that I stumbled into this copywriting thing. Freelance copywriter is truly a fantastic way to make a living. This profession turned me from a penniless high school failure into a millionaire.

If  you regular watch TV ads, reads web pages, or sees an ad in a glossy magazine and want to write something like you watch or read then this freelance profession is best for you. Freelance copywriter doesn’t mean copyrighting it is totally about protecting ideas, registering trademarks, etc. This creative job allows you to:

• Work from home
• Do something different every day
• Enjoy an unlimited income
• Be your own boss

Duties Of A Freelance Copywriter:

A professional and well-paid freelance copywriter can write convincing and persuasive words for:

• Ads
• Website pages
• Blogs (‘internet diaries’)
• Articles
• Press releases
• E-mail marketing campaigns (emails that promote a product or service, or simply inform people)
• Printed marketing materials (brochures, leaflets, flyers and sales letters)
• TV & radio commercials

A professional and skilled freelance copywriter can easily developed a brand identity for your business by playing with some realistic or forceful words. A freelance copywriter only take your pages upon pages of text and edit it down to only the most delicious morsels of consumer-friendly, brand-relevant information. Making every face of your marketing message faster, shorter and, eventually, improved.

Freelance copywriters are very quick because they’re usually just a phone call away and easily available to turn copy on a short notice. Those writing projects that took you days to finish, a skilled freelance copywriter can even complete it within few hours. For example if you require a last-minute press release just make a call to your freelance copywriter and your breaking news is ready to release.

Many freelance copywriters now have their own web presences, most of them optimized for search engines so that they can attract internet users who search with such type of keywords such as ‘copywriter’ or ‘freelance copywriter’. To build up the profile of their site, copywriters may look for reporting in online copywriting directories, such as these examples at Yahoo and FreeIndex.

Every freelance copywriter before starting their work settles down their rates with their clients. Some of them charged by the day, some freelance copywriters may agree to charge by the hour, or by the word or thousand words. Charging by the word is not affordable for a copywriter but for some tasks (such as the making the large amounts of search-engine friendly copy), the per-word basis may be suitable.

In this freelance profession the time is money because the client needs their work on time. If you delay in submitting your work to your clients then he may cancel your contract and never hire you. A freelance copywriter is not a robot who just does whatever you say. Being as a freelance copywriter, you don’t need a creative martyr who’ll fight you on every little change. Be a well-balanced individual who brings a fresh marketing perspective to the table, but ultimately respects your clients and differs to your business expertise.
