1. Stay Ahead of the Market
Kodak has closed another factory this week, shedding an
additional 600 jobs, with a further 12,000 due to go this
year. Why? Because of the digital revolution of course,
with millions of people switching from film to digital photography.
Yet at the same time, thousands of companies are taking
advantage of the digital switch to create new jobs. Which
just goes to show how important it is to stay ahead of technology.
Don't let your job become redundant – keep your skills up
to date and stay ahead of the game.

Testimonials
"I took a chance one day when I was flush and sent a few bucks to gain access to the Go Freelance Professional Edition. Since then, I've edited a sales letter, a follow-up letter, an 11-page Web site, and a brochure. I'm 'on call' to do pinch-hit proofreading for a medical newsletter editor in Florida ..and I've landed a gig editing a new Canadian magazine coming out this fall. All this from taking a chance on Go Freelance."
