You find yourself needing help with your business. But it’s not the kind of help that requires you to hire a full-time employee. Anyway, you don’ have the resources right now to offer full-time work.
On the other hand, there are professionals and specialists who don’t have or don’t want — for whatever reason — full-time employment.

Perhaps, they have a full-time job in another field but want to offer their services part-time on the side.
Enter freelancing. Freelancing allows skilled professionals and the companies that need their services to connect and work together without forming a traditional employer/employee relationship.
