FreelanceSwitch releases “How to be a Freelance Rock Star” book
Posted on Friday, December 14th, 2007 under blogging, web design news by Dustin Brewer.FreelanceSwitch, the popular freelance blog, has finally released their long awaited “Freelance Rock Star Book” with all kinds of great chapter for web designers, writers, graphic designers and photographers. It is a fantastic resource for anyone that is in the freelance business. It is an accumulation of what they have been writing about in their blog over the past year.
I have already ordered mine so I don’t have a full review of how it will turn out yet. But I’m sure it is a great book to get or to give away for Christmas. It is the freelance source for this Christmas season (and probably 2008). Chapters are as follows:
- Getting Started
- Your Brand
- The Working Day
- Getting Your First Jobs
- Scoping and Time Frames
- Pricing Yourself
- Doing the Job
- Clients
- Getting Paid
- Marketing Yourself
- Building a Business
A great list of chapters that all sound right on topic for what most of us freelancers are looking to focus on. You can buy the book from this site.


I bought my copy, I can’t wait.
yay, I read the article in FSw website, not the book its just the article wrote by collis telling that they released it already. Collis and Cyan wrote it.
Seems like it’ll be a good book. But how can you recommend a book (using an affiliate link) that you haven’t read yet?
