Gotta Getta Guru!

Again - I'm not much of a product endorser, but I know what I like. If you haven't checked it out - http://www.guru.com/ has some pretty cool offerings on it. Freelance workers from all over the world bid on your projects and you get quality work, super fast turnaround, and low, low prices. I had a logo designed for a website of mine for $50. I posted online what I wanted, got 18 bids on the work within 5 hours ranging from $25 to $200 (you can establish the range you are willing to pay) and chose a fellow from England for $50. A couple of questions answered, some colors chosen, and 2 days later I had a fully developed logo, with web design colors and letterhead design thrown in for free.

There are people that will do any sort of admin task that you don't want to do, or don't find a productive use of your time. Right now, I'm paying somebody to go through all 3,000 of my contacts, clean them up, fix spelling, weed out the dupes and make one big CSV file I can populate all my devices with. 2 day turnaround. I've seem people get drawings/cartoons done, to creating a book with all their recipes in it, to a virtual assistant who will answer your phone, manage your appointments and plan your day with you.

Some of the freelancers are overseas, and some are in Europe and North America. Heck, they are all over the place. So if you want somebody to transcripe an audion recording or send out your Christmas card list or even manage your wedding invitations - check out http://www.guru.com/

I now return you to your regularly scheduled life......
