Mavenlink Brings Freelancers and Businesses Together
Whenever we run across a website that can help bring business owners and freelancers together, we love calling that web site to your attention.
Today we’ll be telling you a bit about Mavenlink online.
From the “how do I make money online” standpoint, if you’re a professional with a service to offer, this web site is right up your alley. Signing up is free, and from there the sky’s the limit.
As a freelancing “maven” you’ll be able to:
o Market your services
o Find challenging and rewarding projects
o Work online efficiently (all projects are completed online)
o Get compensated (make money!) in a reliable and secure way.
As a Maven, after creating your free account, you browse opportunities and select projects you are qualified, professionally, to complete. Mavenlink even goes a step further and lets you tell them what sort of projects you have a particular talent for… how cool is that!
Businesses also create their initial account for free. Then you can go hunting for the perfect person to complete the task you need to get done.
Client benefits include:
o Accessibility to qualified candidates for your project
o Affordability
o Efficiency
o Flexibility
From the business owner’s side of the equation, Mavenlink makes it easy for you to save time and money locating the perfect freelancer for your needs. Also, it’s a great way to keep your business overhead costs down – outsourcing helps eliminate “cumbersome administrative overhead,” freeing up your staff and/or yourself to handle the tasks you need to concentrate on.
Browsing their Projects section should give both sides the opportunity to see “how much to charge” and “how much will I make.” In fact, we are totally impressed that their value-for-value exchange is very apparent using the Mavenlink system. (You’ll have to visit Mavenlink’s projects page to fully appreciate this statement, it’s much more clear cut then their competitors – we like that!)
Need to advertise your skills and make money? Mavenlink is for you!
Need to find a professional? Again, the best of both worlds can be found at Mavenlink – bringing skilled freelancing individuals and businesses together.

Hi Sadie, this one could be really great especially for this with “more expensive” talents. It’s always cracked me up that anyone would expect to get say 100 articles on the same keyword for $20…. Mavenlink looks completely different, though a complete browsing of the projects should give everyone a really good idea on which side of the fence they will want to sit – freelancing or advertising.

This is company is a waste of time because a client that I had refuse to pay me after I have put in time of the project that they wanted and claim they would not pay because of my performance, even though I was being professionally and follwoing my clients and customers liek you are suppose to. I rather work at real graphic design company that has ne to do a good job, but paid at the same time.

Hi Joy! Good input since freelancing can be a tricky thing. Researching a potential client and his/her history of payment is always wise. Many freelancing websites provide you with that information upfront, so be sure to look for it!
