Method 6: Freelance as an Administrative Assistant


One easy way to raise some cash fast is to work as an administrative assistant. Usually, this means doing things like record-keeping, database entry, and other repetitive tasks; however, in other situations, it might mean something like submitting links to directories, managing an affiliate program, or something like that.

Whatever the case may be, the only requirement is usually that you be good with computers and with the Microsoft Office suite of products. Other than that, you will probably be given a detailed set of instructions that explain exactly what you should be doing on a daily basis.

When looking for administrative assistant jobs, a good place to look is
www.elance.com. If you need immediate payment, you should look for one-time, small jobs. Put in a low bid; and offer to work around the clock until you complete it. If you do a good job, there’s a chance the client will release the funds to you within days, which you can then transfer to your PayPal account.

Alternatively, you can pick up very large jobs; and require clients to make a
deposit of, say, 30% on acceptance of your bid. This means that you will get 30% of the project’s full cost as soon as you are hired, which you can immediately transfer to your PayPal account and then deposit in your bank.
As a final note, one key to doing well with these types of projects is to make
credible bids. You can do this by writing a proposal that is specifically tailored to the project, rather than just writing something generic. You can also do this by submitting samples of your relevant work, a copy of your resume, and anything else that might provide pertinent information to the job poster.

For instance, consider writing a 15-page report on a current hot topic; and selling it for $3 per copy as a special offer. This may sound like a tiny amount—and indeed it is—but that’s exactly the point. You’re not selling a massive, comprehensive set of encyclopedias. You’re simply selling something small and targeted for a tiny price, so that potential buyers don’t have to think hard about what to do. If you do a good job with this approach and create a valuable product, there’s a good chance you’ll make hundreds of dollars from your offer.
