passing audio transcription jobs to others

I’m passing off some freelance jobs in my bucket to my sibling and colleagues who don’t have jobs. It’s good because I get to help them out provided that they are able to comply with the requirements. It’s actually a win-win situation; they have jobs and they get paid, I also keep my credibility intact.

Steps on How to Correct the Notification of Limited PayPal Account Access

After I made a Paypal transaction online, I received an email from PayPal themselves notifying me of a Limited PayPal Account Access being done to my account. I was shocked! – I still had some funds I needed to withdraw at that week because of an important trip that I’ve been saving for.

4 friends resigned from work to pursue blogging and freelance

I have 4 friends who resigned from work in order to pursue careers in blogging and freelance. These people all worked in a prestigious contact center and they were all my colleagues. I even started blogging before them and I influenced a couple to start sharing their thoughts online and earn some income at the same time.

lunch conversation about work

I just had a conversation over lunch with a fellow blogger/colleague and we were talking about our jobs. We’re running 4 years within this business process outsourcing industry already and we have come a long way from being classmates back in our product training class. Although we haven’t reached our peak, it seems that the years have passed by so fast. Funny at times that we wonder what will happen once we reach the 5 years if we’re going to opt for an early retirement or we’ll pursue other careers.

blog events for my travel blog

I’ll be going out tomorrow for an event wherein I got invited because of being a blogger. It’s starting to come to fruition, the results of being able to write quality posts about a particular niche. My main blog, which used to be a personal blog has shifted to a travel blog which showcases the different places I’ve been to in this country.

write-ups

I have so many write-ups I need to finish today:

  • 2 750-word articles – freelance work
  • write-up for a call center magazine that also serves as my application
  • blog entry submission for a contest I’m joining
  • long-overdue post for ceburoadtrip.com – I haven’t contributed an entry ever!

sales write

I’m getting the hang of writing sales articles in my freelance job. I like this better because the words flow more freely as opposed to being more informational. I can practice my being more of a marketer whenever I put myself as if I’m part of my client’s company.
