I've been a freelancer for 10 years. Here are 4 strategies that have helped me get paid what I deserve

I've been a freelancer for 10 years. Here are 4 strategies that have helped me get paid what I deserve Recent highlights: 1. I've joined networks like Pitch Whiz, a website for journalists and editorial professionals looking to either sell or buy stories, Who Pays Writers, an anonymous, crowd-sourced database of pay rates across print and digital media, and Freelancers Union, a nonprofit organization that educates and advocates for freelancers of all stripes. 2. Similarly, when I see a friend has written for a publication that I'm interested in, I'll reach out and ask who their editor is and what their typical rate is, so that I know if it's even worth my time to pitch them #biyro #brooklyn #cutlassrecords #magazine #benjamins More: https://biyro.com/blog/freelance/ive-been-a-freelancer-for-10-years-here-are-4-strategies-that-have-helped-me-get-paid-what-i-deserve/

Why the Americans turned away from the German banks

Why the Americans turned away from the German banks Quick summary: 1. While the legislation of the European Union dictates that banks should provide a basic account for any EU citizen, which is asking for one, which should mean that US / German citizens have the right to receive banking services. 2. However, it seems that most of the non-American banks (and even some on the basis of the United States) still seek to avoid additional troubles and the cost of the need to constantly update the officials of American governments on the financial activities of their customers - and from the moment the government may charge smooth fines that are not relevant facts, many banks seem to think that it's just not worth the risk #biyro #nyc #bishopjakes #inspiration #newyork More: https://biyro.com/blog/freelance/why-the-americans-turned-away-from-the-german-banks/
