If you are stuck trading time for dollars as a freelancer, you need to shake up your approach to business. At Nation1099, we think an “entrepreneurial” approach is critical to making this a long-term career.

Ryan Gill is the founder of Communo,  a vetted network of marketing professionals. He is also the author of Community Inc. – A Survival Guide For Creative Entrepreneurs.
