  • I need some experienced PHP people on deck for possibel freelance work...

    So my freelancing is going quite well. So much so that I have too much work, and it is starting to kill me dead. I've never sub-contracted work before, but I am getting to the point where it is looking like the correct thing to do.

    What I need is someone who can do some or all of the following:

    1. Program in PHP - like make mySQL db-driven sites, customize code on other peoples apps, that level of programming
    2. Slice and Dice photoshop diagrams into website templates - I work with a firm that supplies me with designed websites, and it is usually my first job to slice and dice them into functional CSS-driven website template files for use in programming projects or CMS packages
    3. Knows how to set up/configure CMS software like Drupal/Joomla
    4. Knows how to SKIN said CMS packages.
    5. The ability to work to a given quote - some of the projects I am working on have already been estimated so you may have to work within the constraints of a quote I've created

    If any of you have some or most of these skill sets, I would be very interested in speaking with you. I generally charge $50.00/hr back to this client for my time (it's a cheaper rate than some consultants, but they give me a ton of steady work so I do not complain). I would pay you between $30.00-$35.00/hr (US Dollars) to help me do this work, depending on how awesome your skill set is).

    I am not a training organization, I need people who can hit the ground running. I want to deal with someone(s) from here directly, no friend of a friend referrals are needed. Reply back here if interested, or write me at me@mikearsenault.com. If you have sites that you have worked on, give me links.

    My role on projects we work on together is as project manager. I use a web-based product called Project Pier to manage all of my work, so you will always have access to files and information you need 24/7, and I rarely sleep, so I can answer questions as they arise. I am very good with documenting requirements, and the projects are all relatively standard stuff. Nothing cool, but steady money >> cool factor for me.

      Pity no one's farming out work in my line.

          All those files ain't gonna collate themselves! Shit I wish I made $30 per hour. I wanted to get into some sort of programming, but never took the time especially back when all the different languages seemed to be competing and one-upping each other

                    Oh yeah, forgot about that dude. Also just in case anyone else is looking at throwing around $30 an hour for work. I'll do anything from rubbing old peoples feet to putting body glitter on crack addicted strippers for that kind of dough. I won't however blow anything as that's more of a $100 an hour type gig.

                      I'm so fucking slammed at the moment, that I can't really chime in. But, who are you doing this for?

                        My primary freelance contracts are with a company called Naida Communications here in Winnipeg (www.naidacom.com). They have a scarily-effective salesman who actually knows enough about web not to sell impossible web projects. In total this summer I have 18 confirmed projects and I have finished 3 :/

                        I wish I could have come here and said Nick had hired me to redo CHUD, that would have been the coolest gig ever!



                        I like making money, Nick will never spend money on CHUD (although in his last article he copped to selling his DVD collection for need of money - maybe he could pay me with that :P ). The gigs I am doing are all small to medium business websites, nothing really major or difficult.

                          Sounds cool.


                          If you wanted to me send a PM with links to what you've been doing, I could see if it's something I could break away to handle.
