<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">Surefirehire.com Connects Entrepreneurs and Businesses with Freelancers</span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">Houston</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">, TX</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">, March 15, 2009 &#8211; A new services website launched today with one goal in mind: helping small to medium sized businesses and entrepreneurs reduce IT and administrative spends by hiring freelancers to do short-term project-related works. Surefirehire.com is an <strong>online talent marketplace</strong> where businesses can post a job to hire an expert, and freelancers can bid on jobs. Bidding begins with a job posting and ends with a freelancer getting hired for the job. It’s that easy.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">Surefirehire.com enables small businesses to <strong>get access to talent and expertise</strong> for fulfilling short term projects or jobs. It allows these businesses to hire experts <em>without</em> having to go through the process of hiring a full time or part-time employee. The businesses can save the administrative overhead that accompanies the process of posting job advertisements to recruit qualified candidates, and these businesses will not have to pay salaries and benefits to freelancers as in the case of full-time employees. The freelancers win because they can work on as many projects as their skill set and time would allow, and earn handsomely for it while working from anywhere they please. Surefirehire.com allows freelancers to look for job opportunities, bid on project listings, and connect with businesses to complete projects.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">Job posting is <strong>free</strong> for a business looking to hire help. An entrepreneur or business posts a job opportunity or project with a budget. Freelancers can then bid on the job opportunity. At anytime, the entrepreneur can accept any bid to hire the freelancer or expert. The work is done by the freelancer as needed, and the entrepreneur pays for the service. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">Surefirehire.com founder <strong>David Naumann</strong> saw a need to simplify the process of how entrepreneurs or businesses can access the expertise of freelancers. “We’ve hired people organically from the website and have seen a significant reduction in the administrative expenses by moving the freelancer hiring process completely online. Surefirehire enables small businesses and entrepreneurs to explore a vast talent pool and hire an expert to fulfill their projects or needs. Businesses are posting their open projects and getting responses from very talented freelancers.” </span></p>
