- I finished my first project for my first client.
- I developed an invoice form and invoiced for my first project.
- I did some preliminary work on a second project for my first client, but now I'm at a standstill until I get more information from them.
- I followed up on three contacts I made at the expo I attended last week. So far, I've received one response of the "not now, but maybe later" variety.
- I met with Aquent on Wednesday, had a long interview and passed a proofreading test. I need to follow up with some additional information and then, hopefully, I can get sent on a few short-term projects.
- I looked at tons of postings online for freelance jobs. I found four that seemed interesting/appropriate/feasible and submitted materials. So far, I haven't heard anything from any of them. There was one in particular I thought I would be very well suited for—it was a freelance copy editor position for an association in California. One of the problems with some of these online positions is that there are just so many people applying for them, it's easy to get lost in the shuffle. (I'll write more about the whole online job process in a later post.)
- I applied for and was accepted by an online web content service called Demand Studios. I'm not too sure about this one yet. I'll elaborate on it as I find out more.
- I set up a Pay Pal account so I can get paid for online jobs.
This afternoon, I'll be attending a couple of networking events. Still, not a bad week. At least I finally had something billable.
