Review: How to Build a Profitable Freelance Business for Under $50
By Joshua on January 23 2008
Last night I was up a little late and decided to browse through my RSS feeds before going to bed. Imagine my excitement when I discovered that Christine the Self Made Chick has just released a brand new ebook! It's called How I Built a Profitable Freelance Business for Under $50 (And How You Can Too!).
With a title like that and the fact that Christine wrote it, I had no resistance left. I gave up my PayPal account without even a struggle. Fortunately, it was worth it.
Unlike some other books on freelancing, Christine's is an actionable step by step program that walks you through…
- Defining your deliverables (If you think it's just something like "web design" or "writing," you're wrong.)
- Creating a reliable income by offering valuable services to your existing clients
- How to set your prices (with excellent guidelines!)
- Getting clients (and using the power of leverage to get the clients that matter most)
- Creating a web presence without breaking the bank (Though if you're willing to spend a bit more than $50, you can always contact me. ;-) )
- How you can become an expert in your industry (and it's easier than you think!)
If you are a freelancer or are thinking about becoming one, you need this book. Reading through the book today has given me insights into my business that are worth many times the $12 Christine is asking. What are you waiting for? Go buy it already!

What our readers said
It’s good to hear that you liked the book – although I guess it’s no surprise that something written by Christine would be good :)
I’m thinking of buying the book too, and you praise definitely gets me even closer to hitting that PayPal buy button…
No surprise at all. :-)
Glad to hear I could push you a little closer to the buy button.
Wow! Thanks so much Joshua! I am so glad you enjoyed it. This strategy has totally worked for me and I hope it makes as many people as possible. I really believe that the time is ideal right now for more people to earn a great income freelancing. More and more businesses are outsourcing for all sorts of things. It doesn’t matter where you live anymore – you can connect with companies all over the world – it’s amazing! And getting started can be so simple.
Thanks again Joshua!
