Freelancers Open Forum: HoustonRuby Monthly Meetup

By popular demand, we're setting aside the Ruby part of our careers, and focus on the money making part of our careers! We're talking about Freelancing (and consulting).

Ever want to live the live of luxury, coding by the pool, collecting money without working for it! (then this isn't for you) --- But, if you want freedom, freelancing may be for you.

Come and ask our panelists questions like:

• How do you get your first client

• How do you invoice and get paid

• What tools exist to help you out?

• What's a good hourly rate?

• How to spot a good client

• What's the difference between consultants and freelancers

Our panelists of freedom loving, risk taking, freelancers/consultants

• Jesse Wolgamott

• Jonathan Birkholz

• Sammy Larbi

• Joshua Reiken

• Ben Gillin (a designer)

Note we are at Platform Houston this month. Yay Platform!
