Becoming a better freelancer:
Brian and I discussed how someone who used to make, for example, $120,000 per year could replicate that success on a system like oDesk. This was an interesting conversation as Brian showed me profiles of oDesk members who had built quite a sterling reputation for themselves within Odesk and had become very much in demand within 12 to 18 months. While one individual he showed me was making just under $70 per hour, the real back story was that this individual had also developed a cadre of other software developers with which he subcontracted work. In consulting terms, this is called leverage. In this case, a freelancer has hired other freelancers to work for him and he makes a percentage of every dollar billed by these other workers.
