I’m Hayden Jackson, a writer and marketing communications specialist currently based in Ottawa, Canada. When I joined Elance in December 2009, I was new to freelancing and new to the world of online work. Although I started out—just like every Elancer—with no feedback and no earnings, I went on to achieve impressive results:

• Broke the Elance Top 40 list in the writing category
• Earned $25,000 part-time in my first year
• Grew my job acceptance rate from 0% to 25%
• Grew my repeat business rate from 0% to 40%
• Maintained a 100% client recommendation rate

I wrote 72 Insider Tips for Elance Writers as a way to share the insider knowledge I gained during my first, successful 18 months as an Elance writer. Although I have since expanded my freelance writing business to off-Elance opportunities, I continue to use Elance as a way to find rewarding writing assignments with quality clients. You’ll find my Elance profile here.
