			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I read a special report in <a href="http://www.inc.com/">INC. magazine,</a> October 2008 edition, titled &#8220;Strategies for Tough Time&#8221;.  I am uncertain of the author; however, he goes on to suggest different ways that smart business owners are coping with the down-turn in the global economy.</p>
<p>The author argues that to combat an economic down-turn, <strong>instead of laying off</strong> an employee, consider dropping their hours and allowing the employee to work for another employer at the same time.</p>
<p>If I were the employer and employee, I would take this approach one step further.  I would augment my staff by <a href="https://www.surefirehire.com">hiring freelancers</a> too.  In this example, the employee who is working only ten hours for the given employer, now has the time to take on <strong>freelancing opportunities</strong>.</p>

<p>Start off by locating a <a href="https://www.surefirehire.com/Categories/listcats.html">category on surefirehire</a>. Find something that you are interested in or have a passion for. This example works with advertising banners.</p>
<ol>
<li>Create a site where you specialize in advertising banner design</li>
<li>Create templates to help the customer with the selection process</li>
<li>Once a customer has selected a design, <a href="https://www.surefirehire.com/Post-Opportunity-free/newauction.html">create an opportunity on surefirehire</a>. (most importantly, it is free to post)</li>
<li>Allow the <a href="http://www.surefirehire.com">surefirehire</a> service provider to do the work, and you liaise with the customer</li>
