Amber Leigh Turner | April 26th, 2010 | No Comments

We have all came across at one point or another the "student" factor when dealing with clients. Some clients don't want to work with students, while other clients seem to seek out students for the hopes of getting the project done at a lower cost. How do you handle when a client finds out that you are a student?

In this article I am going to explain exactly how my work was stolen and why I am thankful I took precautionary actions when I did.

Let’s Get Real About Our Freelancing

Amber Leigh Turner | April 7th, 2010 | 1 Comment

One trend I see when it comes to student freelancers is the lack of “realness” to their freelancing. I can’t seem to put my finger on the reason either. Maybe it is because they don’t consider their freelancing a real business. Maybe it is because they aren’t at a real office doing the work. Or maybe they don’t consider themselves real freelancers. Whatever the reason(s) may be, not getting “real” when it comes to your freelancing can cause you some severe growing pains.
