I am currently working on a graphic design business in the small publishers. Now I would like to earn a little extra money. The situation is the fact that I live in remote locations, this work is the place I live really close to where I could be done as it is not too commercial. The only problem I have is about the state’s largest city and live Ruibirukentakki 50 kilometers, there is a lot of work I have is what to do oppritunities exist. So I was thinking about aspects of freelance work. Or how do I get, I get a bad idea, I work in the publishing industry? Thank you for your suggestion.

Hi ya. Having been doing freelance work for years it’s a nice sideline. Some can make a full-time income, but for starters you should check the local papers for some help needed in graphic design. You could contact them, say you aren’t looking for employment, but do want to do some freelance work. Obviously you will have to have a rate you will accept, but many places love people who can pitch in when there is overflow work, illnesses, and so forth.
As you get a few “jobs” done well you will get more to do. I know several people who developed that small sideline into a real business of their own.
Having said this, keep your regular job for now. That keeps the income going. Then you can see how you are doing after a while on the freelance stuff.
Some local businesses could probably use your services for ads, logos, and so forth.
