Freelancing as an independent contractor is a lifestyle design strategy that can help you reinvent your career, and make money from fun, flexible project work online while doing it.
Most of my advice is focused on helping you start a new business where you are the CEO. But there are other ways to build your own Click Millionaire success online. One of the lowest risk, easiest to start, and most flexible to pursue is freelancing as an independent contractor.
My guest: Fabio Rosati CEO of eLance.com
To help you explore the potential that freelance work online offers, I found a great guest for this episode of the Click Millionaires Radio Show: Fabio Rosati, CEO of eLance.com, one of the top freelance project marketplaces online.
New Podcast: Lifestyle Design Strategies as a Fun Flexible Freelancer
In this exclusive interview, eLance.com CEO Fabio Rosati and I discuss how freelance project contractor work can help you:
Make extra money outside your current job on a part-time basis.
Work from home (or anywhere else).
Pick the projects that you like.
Set the price that makes each job exciting for you.
Dodge projects you don’t like to do.
Arrange your schedule around your own lifestyle priorities.
Explore new career paths.
Learn new skills.
How to Reinvent Yourself Through Freelancing
Working as a freelance independent contractor can be a great way to make some money online without quitting your current job. It's a low risk way to explore new interests and learn new skills and even get paid while you're doing it.
Freelancing is still trading your hours for dollars but much more on your own terms and schedule than if you work a “real job." While the pay is not always high, and freelance gigs don’t provide health benefits, you can pick and choose to focus on projects that best meet your needs.
The flexibility available to freelance contractors can help you reinvent yourself and your career to create a better lifestyle by setting up a new service-based business where you make money by serving the needs of other companies.
How to Find Work as a Freelancer
You might say “That all sounds great but how do I find projects from clients willing to pay me?”
Our good friend the Internet is back to help you once again!
The newspaper “Help Wanted” ads have been replaced by online “project marketplaces” like Fabio's eLance.com. Just like eBay matches buyers and sellers of old stuff from your garage, project marketplaces help employers find independent contractors for projects where they need help.
If you have skills you’d like to put to work in your after-hours or on weekends, or if you want to start building a practice of your own around a new skill set, offering your services through project marketplaces like eLance.com, oDesk.com, Guru.com, or others online is a great place to start.
These marketplaces host thousands of project requests for all sorts of freelance services that you can consider offering yourself.
You Don’t Have to Be a CEO
While enhancing your skills through project-based work online you can also avoid the pressure of coming up with a big idea to start a new company. Instead you can "upsource" the hassle, the responsibility, and many of the administrative requirements of starting a formal business by working for others.
Online freelancer services like Elance.com make this easy for you. They handle all the billing, timesheets, and collections for you and the services are free to use. You figure out which kinds of projects you like and you only bid on those that will continue to excite you even after you come home from a long day at work.
Freelancing Can Be Your Entry Point to a New Career and Lifestyle
Now I know freelancing like this is not the answer for everybody.
Most of the emphasis online (including in my blog, books, and the ClickMillionaires.com Forum) is that you need to come up with your own idea and then build that into a company.
I’m still a big fan of that approach and that’s where I’d like to see you end up. But starting as a part-time freelance contractor may be your entry point to profitable self-employment, with a lot less risk than starting your own company.
Freelancing is a little different from my normal Click Millionaires approach, but it’s an opportunity for you. It’s up to you how much you work, and what kind of projects you pick. But if you explore and learn and get paid along the way, you might be able change careers or even reinvent yourself around a Click Millionaire lifestyle business that you love.

Multilevel Marketing online is a big opportunity for you. Or is it?
I have to admit that I've always been skeptical about multilevel marketing (MLM) and network marketing.
Selling overpriced products to friends and family sounds more likely to lead to uncomfortable situations than easy money.
But I’ve been hearing that MLM has found new life online...
So for this new podcast I interviewed MLM expert, Ann Sieg, to help us dig up the TRUTH about legitimate network marketing and MLM business opportunities online today.
If you’ve spent any time researching business opportunities, you’ve likely come across network marketing (also known as multilevel marketing or direct selling) more than once.
The MLM industry is good at attracting aspiring sellers with promises of easy earnings and exciting prizes for top sellers.
Selling MLM products sounds easy because as a new recruit, you are trained to sell detergents, cosmetics, vitamins, services, or whatever to your personal network of friends, family, and acquaintances.
Then as you start selling the products to your personal networks, hopefully you recruit some of those friends to become sub-distributors, too. As the people “beneath” you in this sales hierarchy (your "downline")start selling, you receive a portion of each their sales as commission.
Multi-Level Marketing has become Internet Marketing
But, like so many other industries, multilevel marketing has become Internet marketing.
Today successful network marketers don't just beg their family members to buy more cosmetics or prepaid services. They increasingly use cost-effective Internet marketing to promote legitimate products that provide real value.
If there’s one Internet business niche that you would think would be completely FULL – that’s on TV all the time and busy across the web 24/7, that might be sports.
There are now multiple ESPN channels, the major sports leagues, tons of websites, sections in every newspaper, part of every radio and TV news update – all that adds up to what feels like saturation coverage of sports.
Could there still be room for new players to make money in SPORTS online?
Yes!
Here's a great example of turning a passion into a lifestyle business online.
Matt Rodriguez from the basketball video highlights siteBallisLife.com joins me for this Click Millionaires free podcast interview.
We discuss how he turned his passion for basketball into a big and very popular website and lifestyle business online.
Click on the blue player widget to listen in for Matt's advice on how he:
Creates original videos and content that attract a huge audience
Transitioned from his 9 to 5 to become a full-time entrepreneur
Beats his competition
Makes money from top name sponsors like Nike, Gatorade, EA Sports, and Foot Locker
Uses Word of Mouth marketing strategies that have saved him big money
Puts content first, social media second promotions strategy
Sacrificed along the way to build his lifestyle business
Most importantly, listen to learn why Matt thinks there's room for your online passion to become a Click Millionaire lifestyle business, too.
Even with small niches you can make money by solving problems.
The most profitable niches are often those that you would not find in the Yellow Pages.
You make money by packaging up the story behind an obstacle you’ve overcome, that little technique you worked out to make your own life or office run better, that problem you helped your family fix - those sorts of solutions are what other people are looking for online.
And with the connectivity of the web, Google can deliver all those wannabe problem-solvers directly to your product sales pages.
Learn Why Information Products are Easy to Create and Highly Profitable - Exclusive ClickBank Interview
As discussed in this new podcast, one of the best ways to make money solving these kinds of problems is to create "information products" that encapsulate your ideas into easy-to-download ebooks, MP3 recordings, or videos.
Information products can be inexpensive to create and cost basically nothing to deliver through the Internet.
For practical insights on digital download sales of information products, I interviewed Beau Blackwell from leading information product marketplace, ClickBank.
He's their "Client Knowledge Guru" and he shares LOTS of useful (and inspiring) advice in this exclusive podcast.
