About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Book Preview: #1 Working gigs online can generate a little side income, or you can completely change your lifestyle and remove the shackles of 9-to-5 office work. You can become a digital nomad and travel the world while working online, or you can elevate your own rising star and design your dream job. The Web can make it happen.
#2 The gig economy refers to the plethora of short-term work and contracts. This is driven by companies that hire staff for individual projects and pay them on a per-job or hourly basis rather than offering them a full-term employment contract.
#3 The freelancing option in the tech industry is a great way to make money. However, it’s not for everyone, so it’s important to understand the pros and cons of the job before deciding to take it on.
#4 There are limits to this flexibility, of course. If you continually shirk on your deadlines, people will stop working with you. And if your contract requires you to be online during certain hours, you can’t pack in early without telling anyone.

#1
Working gigs online can generate a little side income, or you can completely change your lifestyle and remove the shackles of 9-to-5 office work. You can become a digital nomad and travel the world while working online, or you can elevate your own rising star and design your dream job. The Web can make it happen.
#2
The gig economy refers to the plethora of short-term work and contracts. This is driven by companies that hire staff for individual projects and pay them on a per-job or hourly basis rather than offering them a full-term employment contract.
#3
The freelancing option in the tech industry is a great way to make money. However, it’s not for everyone, so it’s important to understand the pros and cons of the job before deciding to take it on.
#4
There are limits to this flexibility, of course. If you continually shirk on your deadlines, people will stop working with you. And if your contract requires you to be online during certain hours, you can’t pack in early without telling anyone.
#5
The gig economy is all about working remotely via the Web. You’ll have the freedom to work from a home office if you so choose, which means you can enjoy all of the creature comforts and luxuries of being in your own environment.
#6
When you work online, you’ll have the flexibility to take on the jobs that you want, work with the people and organizations you want, and stop working when you want. This is a learning process, and to begin with you won't be able to afford to be picky.
#7
When you work gigs, you get to set your own fee, although there is usually a trade-off between this point and the others. You can decide how much money you need to earn and then set that as your target.
#8
When you work for a big company, you are on their time. They are paying you to be available between the hours of 9 and 5, but are they necessarily getting the best work out of you in that time. The answer for many businesses is no: they will have you answering the phone, responding to e-mails, attending meetings, and doing menial tasks.
#9
I believe that being self-employed is a more stable and reliable way to earn money than working for an employer. More and more jobs will be outsourced in the future, which means that freelancers will have a competitive advantage.
#10
When you work freelance, you are your own business. You will have your own company name and trademark, and you will be a sole proprietor or a limited liability company. You will be building lists of clients and contacts, managing relationships, developing new skills, investing in equipment and training courses, and promoting yourself.
#11
If you’re going to freelance, then you need to be disciplined. This means you need to be able to shut the world out and concentrate on your
