fastest-growing freelance marketplace.
Working either on their own or under a temporary contract, freelance songwriters basically get to spend their free time doing what they love... writing music. Work-for-hire contractors are able to work under contracts with various companies depending on their needs. A career as a freelance songwriter can also expose a songwriter into other freelance paths. Talented individuals have begun songwriting services where they are involved in every step of the process. From conception to production and finally distribution, freelance songwriters can be as involved as they want. The great part about that is the fact that they have the final say on how their song is used, and who uses it. With hard work and determination, a freelance songwriter that writes and produces their own material can easily enjoy a comfortable lifestyle. Some of the more notable freelance songwriters have even hit millionaire status.
Freelance songwriters can also be hired on as staff writers. In most cases a songwriter will have done a few assignments for the same production company before that company decides to bring that person on as a staff writer. Being a staff writer may mean different things depending on the terms agreed upon. Since the freelance songwriter already has a history with the producers, these arrangements are usually very simple and mutually beneficial.
Freelance songwriters depending on what instruments they are familiar with can be instrumental in writing lyrics and even guitar riffs for a song. Most of the pop songs played on the radio were actually written by someone else. Chances are that person was or had at one time been a freelance songwriter. Songwriting for someone else requires more then just a passion for music, but also a desire to see their songs and lyrics are given used by someone else, which will help to gain exposure and a reputation as a solid freelance songwriter.

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."
