Posted by Chris at 12:19 PM on September 19th, 2009

Now that I’m officially a “freelancer,” I will be the first one to admit, even after 7 years of working on freelance projects on the side, that I don’t know everything. So for this post, I’m going to try something different. Instead of bestowing my vast knowledge and experience upon you, I’m going to open up this blog post for everyone to contribute to.

Post your best freelance advice in the comments below

You may also tweet your advice if you’d like, simply include a link back to the article within your tweet and it will be pulled into the comments below.
