Boss-Free Issues
-- The Bucks --
How to Charge: The
decision that every IP has to make -- should you charge by the hour
or by the project? Full Story
Quid Pro Quo: Bartering is rarely a core business
strategy for most IPs... but it may help cut down on your start-up costs
and spread the word about your business. Full Story
Charge Your Clients More: If you're ready to raise your
rates (and you should be from time to time), do it. And don't be apologetic
about it, either. Just be smart. Full Story
Cough it Up: Getting work is good, getting paid for it is better still. Getting paid on time is best of all. IPs talk about how to get your client to pay the damned invoice already. Full Story
-- The Buzz --
The Genuine
Article: Not a writer? You should still try to get published. Articles
establish your expertise better than almost any other marketing tool.
Here's a realistic look at how to get rolling.
Full Story
Bearing Your First Web Child: Just "having
a Web site" doesn't make you special any more... especially if it's
garbage. If you're planning to lose your online virginity, here's some
advice to help you make the most of the (ahem) pregnant possibilities.
Full Story
Beating The Night Terrors: No
work coming in? Living in your own private horror movie? We feel your pain... no, actually, that's baloney. Only you feel your pain. But we do have some advice. Full Story
Don't Be Bashful: Nobody's saying you have to cruise the town square bellowing your name and phone number. Nobody's saying you shouldn't, either. But if you expect to succeed in self-employment, you'd better make time to market yourself somehow. Full Story
Naming Your Business: You can invent a name for your solo business, or simply use the one you were born with. We found that IPs disagree on this issue. Full Story
-- The Gigs --
Teaming Up: For many IPs, working solo is the best part of the job -- but sometimes it makes plain old business sense to take on a partner. Full Story
Saying No: Nobody likes to turn down work, but sometimes it's necessary if you value other things -- your sanity, reputation, and free time, for example. Full Story
Clients
You Can Live Without: Yes, we know, you love your clients. Most
of them. Sometimes, however, a client crawls out of your nightmare swamp
and almost makes you wish you were a wage slave again. Sound familiar?
Full Story.
-- The Big Picture --
Work Junkies: Why do freelancing and workaholism
go hand in hand? Full Story
Tower of Babel: Freelancers have more labels
than the canned goods aisle in the supermarket. Here's a fun look at
the names they call themselves. Full Story
Hand Off: You can try to do everything yourself... or
you can outsource some business tasks to someone else. Full Story
After Hours IP: You put in eight hours for The Man... now put in a few for yourself. Full Story
Propose to Me: When the big suit asks you to work, that's called making money. When the big suit invites you to beg for work, that called an RFP. Money is better, but still... Full Story
Give it Away: If "show me the money" has become your professional battle cry, it may be time to consider donating your professional services to a good cause. Full Story
On the Rocks: Your business, your clients, your work
-- just thinking about this stuff used to make you feel all tingly.
Now it just makes you feel nauseous. Read this, and bring back the romance.
Full Story
The Ten Commandments: If you're
looking for a laugh, check out these surefire breaches of business etiquette.
Commit them, though, and you'll have more free time than you probably
want. Full Story

1099 Index: The Sequel
We want to know everything we can about you boss-free characters.
And we figure maybe you want to know about you, too. (Okay, so you already
know about yourself -- but do you know what your peers are up to?) 1099
Magazine proudly announces the second annual 1099 Index,
our survey of all things IP-ish. The other press is already writing it
up and calling for interviews, but on this here webzine you've come to
The Source. Read our commentary.

From our Shameless Bragging Department...
1099 may be a little weird but we Feel the Love:
Love: Access Magazine
gave us four stars and said we have "a cheeky style that almost takes
the place of water-cooler banter... the volume of information can be
overwhelming... fortunately, a good design makes it easy to sort through.
Bottom line: If you freelance, this is a must-read." Cheeky,
eh? We're not sure which cheeks these guys are talking about, but we're
checking with their Anatomy Editor and we'll get back to you.
Love: One of the "Idiots" books called us "sassy, smart, and irreverent." And here we thought we were plodding, dumb, and respectful of authority.
Love:
The webzine Feed observed: "Seems like lately everybody's telling their boss to shove it and becoming a free agent... check out 1099, the salty on-line magazine..." Thanks for the salt, fellas, but telling your boss to "shove it"? Such language! We're shocked -- shocked!
Love:
We were nominated for a British Academy Award for Interactive Entertainment! And here we thought this was a business site? Well, anyway, we went to the Awards dinner and did our best to speak English, but the British bird watchers' site beat us anyway. That made us all a-flutter, but we're chirpy again now.
Love:
USA Today named us a Hot Site, and Project Cool named us Sighting of the Day. Is it possible to be hot and cool simultaneously? Say, are there any IP thermal engineering consultants who can clear this up for us?
Love:
The San Jose Mercury News called us a "flashy site worth visiting." That's a relief... if the chief geeks in Silicon Valley don't like you in this Web biz, you're in trouble.
Love:
Fortune Magazine said we're "a great little online magazine." Thanks, guys, we think you're a great little offline magazine.
Love:
Working Solo's e-newsletter said we're "filled with solid content and an upbeat
attitude" and "well worth a bookmark on your browser." Upbeat? Aw, gee, and we thought we had a lousy attitude!
Love:
The Orange County Register and About.com (The Mining Company) featured us too, and we're a featured content partner on Inc. Magazine's new Inc.com site. We don't have a clever sarcastic remark about this stuff yet, but never fear, we're working on it.

Freelancers:
When is the best time to get your invoices paid?
How about... um... right now?
Aquent Fast Cash
It brings in the bucks -- fast!
How to Blow an Interview: You're being interrogated...
excuse us, interviewed by a potential client. There's standard advice
on how to play this... and then there's our crazed columnist's advice.
Hey, it's your career, dude. You decide. Full Story
Great IPs in History
Leonardo
da Vinci: Leonardo was a great painter, a brilliant scientist, an
inventive engineer, and one of the most catastrophic project-management
screwups in the history of freelancing. Full Story
