Why I think this is a freelancers time to shine.

Companies are being quite cautious with every dollar they spend. They're re-evaluating employees and making cut backs. Hours have been cut and many people are taking salary reductions (rather than losing that salary completely). 

If you're a freelancer, contract worker or looking for part time work - this is your time to shine.
As a freelancer, you're able to offer your experience, your dedication, your commitment without a full time salary. 

If you're an employer - consider this, your company is on a downward spiral and you know that your marketing efforts have to be pumped up. You don't have the budget to hire a full time employee, but you need more help. Freelancers allow you to work with the budget you have and project to project. Your relationship with a freelancer can evolve into an amazing one, your projects are completed and your budget is intact. 

As a freelancer, don't let these troubling times scare you. Take the time to explain the benefits of your services and abilities to work project to project. 

Work still needs to get done - so why can't you be the one to do it?
