6 Tips To Finding And Hiring Freelancers For Your Small Business

If you're a micropreneur like me, you might have stumbled upon a little secret that helps you do more in your business: freelancers. When you run a business, you may not need (or be able to afford) a full-time staff, and that's where hiring outside help is such a boon. You only pay the freelancer for the services they offer or the time they work, and it's usually an affordable way to service more customers and offer more to them. I've been working with freelance writers, editors, and designers for about 10 years, and, as a result, I've been able to grow my content marketing firm much faster than I could have if I had handled all projects on my own. I've worked with highly skilled freelancers—and some not-so-professional ones—so I want to share some tips to help you ensure that you hire the best ones for your needs.
