So, I've been Freelancing and Noticed Something...



For those of you who do not know, I have recently upped my game when it comes to the freelance writing market with quite a bit of success. I have a good handful of clients that provide work on a regular basis and enough one time jobs to keep me happy. It has been a very interesting experience to delve in to the world of the freelance and wanted to share something that came to mind. 

For anyone reading this who has done freelancing before, you probably can relate to the fact that many of the clients out there on the website like upwork.com and writeraccess.com offer well below the value of what your work is worth. 

At present, the lowest side of the pay is .02 cents per word which amount to $10 dollars per 500 words. In my browsing of the freelance market, I have found clients who want 1,500 to 2,000 words for only $5 or $6 dollars. For every one good job I have found to apply for, there were seven or eight that were just ridiculous in their demand. 

More and more I have found that people who utilize something that is considered art, are routinely never really given credit or value for your work. A good artist friend Kathleen Ruhl has told me about times that clients want expensive work for pennies on the dollar. 

Do not get me wrong, a lot of freelancers are not greedy or want to charge an arm and a leg, but on the flip side clients and people who want to hire a writer or artist need to understand a lot goes in to their work. An artist has to pour their time and creativity in to their pieces while writers put a lot of mental energy in to the pieces they turn out. At the end of the day, I have found myself really exhausted and unable to write the things I want to write due to having to complete an essay or blog someone hired me for. 

What is the point of my little article? If you are a person looking to hire a freelancer, I am not trying to damn you for looking for a deal, but on the other end of the equation, remember that your freelancer goes through a lot to provide you a quality piece and what you pay is truly what you get. 

Do you want to know more about what freelancers go through? I highly recommend taking a look at http://clientsfromhell.net/ for some idea what we have to go through.

[Stolen Work] Secrets to Healthy Skin

As a freelance writer, I write quite a bunch of things. This document you are reading is one of my pieces that was written and then stolen by me by someone claiming to be an Ann Tilen (believed to be a fake name) by not paying for the document as promised. If you received this from a company or person, it is stolen work. Either take it down or reach out to me to purchase the rights. Thanks.

Skin. It is the secret of looking young no matter how many years have gone by. There are many markets out there about skin care, how to reduce wrinkles and all sorts of other anti aging techniques. But the secret is not just what product is bought but what you do to take care of it.

There are quite a few easy to use treatments that can help keep your skin looking young and fresh. The key ingredient in many anti aging creams is retinol. No skin care market should be without this important substance. If your cream has it in there, you are already on your way to younger, healthier skin. Retinol is a form of vitamin A that helps your skin remain elastic and thus reduces wrinkles from appearing.

Another great oil that no skin care regimen should be without is organic sesame oil. The rich, oil can reduce wrinkles safely and easily because your skin loves the components found in the oil. Rose oil is another that not only allows the skin to heal, the soft aroma helps add a beautiful fragrance to your skin care routine.

One of the best, sure-fire ways to reduce wrinkles is to get your favorite moisturizer from your local drug store, wash your face and put in on before bed. It allows the oils to rehydrate and to clean away all the dead skin that accumulates through the day. It also allows the skin care to do its job without interfering with your day to day business.

There are just some of the great ways you can reduce wrinkles and have better skin care. If you are already doing these anti aging techniques then you are a long way ahead of all those who have yet to begin. Great job!

[Stolen Work] Yes You Can Sell Your House Fast in Kentucky

Sometimes, no matter how hard a realtor works, there are times where they cannot sell the house. At times it is inexperience on their part and other times it is just the housing market not being very productive. Do not fret, though, there are still hope for those who feel that there is no other way to sell.

Many times the hardest part of selling the house is that there are a lot of hoops and legal work that has to be put through. The bank has to decide if they want to create a loan for the house buyer, the expenses of doing an inspection and that last closing cost that can really be a kick in the pants. Even in the most depressed economy, you can sell your house fast as we buy houses for cash!

Cash home buyers are a group of people that want to help get distressed homeowners out of debt or against lean by purchasing the house through cash which allows the homeowner to skip the mortgage process. Cash buying can be a very quick way to get out from under a heavy burden and sell your house fast.

The state of Kentucky is one of the few states that does not have a lot of rules like others when it comes to selling a house. Though there are still laws like who really owns the house and the proper method of payment and legally required inspection. That is not something anyone has to worry about because there are realtor specialists called distressed property realtors who know the ins and outs of cash home buying.

The process is simple to get started and there are some many benefits for doing it. At the moment, the Internal Revenue Service still has tax credits and cuts that favor home selling while also allowing you to gain the money you need quicker than a regular sale. The way it works is that you make an offer and if the offer is accepted, the company will handle all the paperwork through a title company and in no time hand over the cash from the sale.

Some may say that if it is this easy, it would be better to do it alone but to sell your house fast you will need one major ingredient. You need experience. Even though the bank may not be part of the process, there is a lot of paperwork to pay attention to and having a distress property realtor will help make sure you avoid any costly mistake. The worse possibility is to make a mistake that cuts into the cash you get at the end of the sale. The minor fee (if there is any) is worth more than losing a lot due to a law, rule, or regulation that was missed.

There is still hope if it has been a struggle to sell the house or a foreclosure notice has been issued. We buy houses and you can sell your house for fast and finally have some peace of mind. It is only a phone call away.
