Dear friend,
My name is Barnaby
Kalan. A few years ago I was in the same position you are now. After
years of “paying my dues” in big organizations, I’d worked my way up
to a decent middle management position.
I was the creative
director for a division of one of country’s biggest advertising
agencies. Sure I was pulling down some big bucks at the time, but I
was absolutely miserable.
Instead of doing what
I loved to do – writing and creating – I was more like an air
traffic controller – stuck in between the art directors and writers
and designers who worked for me and the account people who worked
with clients.
Every day was a
series of endless meetings and fights. I was constantly trying to
coax my staff to do what the account people wanted… or explain why
the deadlines we were given were unreasonable. In short, I spent
most of my time trying to keep projects and people from crashing and
burning to the ground.
Plus there was the
back-stabbing and company politics to contend with. And the
paranoia. I’d spend half of my time wondering what meetings I was
getting shut out from. Who was staying what to whom behind my back.
A junior art director I’d hired was actually spreading nasty gossip
about me.
Some days I’d want to
steal some time for myself and write something... actually work on a
project instead of just supervising others. But I‘d find myself just
staring at my computer screen, unable to concentrate because of all
the nervous tension I felt at work.
Even today, I can
still remember the anxiety I felt going to work everyday. The knot
in my stomach and how drained and tired I felt at the end of most
days – without ever accomplishing that much. The truth is, I was
just surviving.
Sound familiar?
My
message to you today is that if you’re sick and tired of your
current job – YOU DON’T HAVE TO TAKE IT ANY MORE. You don’t have to
put up with this type of life-sapping existence any longer.
Be in Business for Yourself
I’m going to show you how you can have a work
life that’s so satisfying, it doesn’t even seem like work anymore.
How you can earn a great living without have a “job” in the
traditional sense. How you can be in business for yourself… finally
in control over your own life… with the freedom to spend more time
with your family, make more money and do the things you want, when
you want. 
You’ll find that you
are actually eager to go to work in the morning and feel
great at the end of the day. In fact, you’ll probably wish you had
more hours in the day to get to all the things you want to
accomplish.
Now I know what
you’re thinking. You’re having a hard time believing that you can do
it. And I know it’s scary to think about leaving the security of a
full-time, 9-to-5 job, especially if you’ve been working at it for
5, 10, 15 or more years. It’s terrifying!
But 11 years after
that miserable time I just described to you, I’m living a wonderful
life. The decision to go out on my own has enabled me to earn over
one million dollars working from the comfort of my home office. My
"commute" takes 10 seconds – the time it takes to carry a cup of
coffee upstairs. If I want to make more money, I simply work a bit
harder any given week.
As a self-employed
professional, I have the freedom to work for nice, smart people and
to tell jerks that I’m too busy. I can work a full week and still
have time to pick up my daughter at school every day and spend time
with her and my wife at night. I can go on vacations when I like –
without asking for permission – and stay in touch with my many
clients from anywhere in the world.
At this stage of your life, isn’t
this the kind of freedom and control over your destiny that you’d
like, too?
"...
the definitive guide to freelance success..."
“Barnaby
Kalan has created an ebook that is destined to become the
definitive guide to freelance success! And he knows what he's
talking about. He's been successful at the dizzying heights of
corporate advertising, chucked it all for the freelance life,
and became unbelievably successful there as well. Now he's put
it all down in a step-by-step guide that he's making available
for the first time ever.”
-- Steve Manning

Best-selling author of “How YOU can Write Your Book On Anything
in 14 Days or Less... Guaranteed! --An Expert's Step-by-Step
Guide”
It’s easier than you
think to make the transition to self-employment… and you are going
to have one big advantage I never had. I’m going to tell you
how you can get a step-by-step plan for doing it in the safest,
smartest, lowest-risk way possible.
All the instructions
on how to get started… how to get your first clients… how to keep
business flowing in… how to stay busy… how to get so busy that
you’re actually turning down work and making more money than you are
now… are waiting for you.
How I Finally Made The Big Leap
Believe me, I was
nervous, too, about leaving the security of a full-time job. After
all, I’d worked for big organizations ever since university – first
for a government agency and then a succession of big-name
advertising agencies in New York and Toronto. I was used to having
everything taken care of for me, from my office equipment to steady
paychecks and a medical and dental benefits plan. Leaving that
security almost seemed like stepping off a cliff!
But in my heart I
desperately wanted something better, something more satisfying.
Something that allowed me to do what I really loved – writing –
while having more control over my life. I knew I had to do it. I was
tired of all the stress and strain of just going to work every day.
So I came up with a plan
that actually enabled my current employer to help me start my own
business! I describe it detail in Chapter 3 of my book,
Outsourcing Yourself:
How to Turn Your Job Into a Business for Greater Wealth and
Security.
My plan actually
guaranteed that I’d have enough money for my entire first year of
starting my own business to pay my bills. And it gave me enough time
to network and to market myself and pick up my own new clients in
the meantime!
I know it sounds
crazy. Why would my employer want me to leave and start my own
business? But in my book, I talk about all the reasons why they
would… and why your employer would be willing to do exactly
the same thing!
What’s more, I also
cover two other proven ways that my friends and colleagues have used
to safely start their own businesses without even having to leave
the company they worked for.
"...pursue
any opportunity you want..."
“You’ll find
that the world is full of opportunity. Now, when you come up
with an idea, it’s yours; it doesn’t get stifled in corporate
politics or
stolen by someone looking for brownie points with the leadership
team. You
are now in a world where you can pursue any opportunity you
want.”
-- Roger Faircloth

A
Positive Cash Flow Within 30 days
Within 30 days, I was
not only doing projects for my old company, I had picked up enough
new projects to be making more money than when I was an employee.
Within five months, I couldn’t wait to stop working for my old
employer so I could concentrate on all the new and interesting work
I was doing for other clients.
And you know what the
most amazing thing is? I made more money in my first year of being
out on my own than I was making on salary with my old employer. And
that’s not even counting the tax advantages of being in business for
yourself!
And yes, I know there
are other things to cover, like office equipment and supplies and
somehow finding a way to replace the medical and dental plan you
might have right now. But I talk about that in my book, too. There
are bunch of ways to replace those benefits at low cost.
The fact is, I was in
business for myself, not only succeeding, but thriving! And I had
done it on my own terms, on my own schedule, in control of my own
destiny.
"...extremely well organized and thoroughly researched..."
“It is an
extremely well organized and thoroughly researched book which
contains a wealth of valuable information for those who are
either
considering starting their own business or those who are already
self-employed
but looking for ways to improve the performance of their
business operations.”
-- Richard Cobbing, Strategic
Management Group
Toronto, Canada
And the great news is it can be even easier for you!
Why? Because you will
have a step-by-step “road map” to going out on your own that I never
had. You don’t have to rely on “guesswork.” You can have a complete
plan – everything from how to approach your employer and get your
boss to actually help you get started… how to set up your home
office…. how to get your first clients and projects… and how to keep
business rolling in… all in one simple manual that’s less than the
price of lunch.
Outsourcing Yourself
is the model that has helped many successful self-employed
professionals launch their own businesses. It is built around one
simple but very powerful promise: to give you all the tools you need
to get your business going and making money in the shortest period
of time!
Does this method
really work? Just ask the people who have tried it.
§
Jacques C. followed my example a year after I did – at
the same company I was working for! He now has a thriving graphic
design business, a big house in the suburbs where he’s able to work
on his own unique schedule and spend more time with his family and
four kids – instead of having to waste hours a day on a commuter
train, rarely getting home in time to have dinner with his family.
§
Roger F. had worked for one of the biggest software
companies in his industry for more than a decade. He was the
ultimate “company man.” But when organizational changes made his
life miserable, he decided to start his own firm. He soon discovered
his unique ability to create and manage sales forces for technology
companies and has been helping companies sell their products
internationally. He has clients in the U.S., Canada and Europe and
can pick and choose who he works for.
§
Ian B. was stuck in a senior management position at a
major university. With little or no “upward mobility”, he created
his own business as a consultant to the software firm that had been
working with his organization. Today, he has a unique skill set
that’s in demand across the country… he’s being asked to speak at
industry conferences… and can virtually “write his own ticket” for
new projects in the future.
"...found two major projects..."
"It gave
me actionable concepts, fundamentals I needed to follow, and a
framework for approaching the task of redefining myself in the
face of a
very fluid and difficult environment in my field. I am pleased
to let you
know that I have found not one but two major projects, at almost
double
the rate I had charged last year!"

I’m telling you the
payoff for learning the right way to OUTSOURCE YOURSELF and the
obstacles to avoid is HUGE. For Jacques C., it meant a six-figure
income working from home with the freedom to spend time with his
kids, go camping and hunting on weekends and live in the country.
For Roger F., it
meant running an international consulting firm from his home office,
traveling the world and pulling in bigger bucks for projects than
when he was a major executive at a software company.
For me, it meant
earning $100,000 or more every year doing what I love to do, being
in charge of who I work for and what kinds of projects I work on and
having the freedom to write articles and books as well.
What will the payoff be for YOU?
Are you going to live life on your own terms? Or spend a lifetime
hoping your boss or your company will give you a measly 2% raise
this year? Or hoping that you won’t be “downsized” out of a job… or
that your job won’t simply disappear as a result of a merger or
buyout. Is that any way to live?
Take this simple but
important step toward having the work life of your dreams today.
It’s a tiny investment, but one that could pay off for you with a
lifestyle that’s the closest thing to being financially independent
while still earning a living.
OUTSOURCING YOURSELF
gives you a step-by-step road map for achieving your new way of
earning a living… living better… working smarter… earning more… and
enjoying life to the fullest.
You will love the freedom, control
and pride of being your own boss. There’s no other feeling like it!

"...wish I had it a

"Outsourcing Yourself is a wonderful book that is highly
needed by a LOT of people, especially these days, when
more & more people are trying to strike out on their
own. Your book is an incredible guide that will
eliminate a lot of the confusion, and help create a game
plan for anyone who wishes to double or triple their
income by working for themselves as a consultant!
It has now been more
than 6 years since I first had that 'precious sip of
freedom' from a job. I tell you, Barnaby, I will NEVER
work for somebody else again in my life! I've come to
recognize that my time is just too precious to me to
just give away to an employer, who will never truly
appreciate you. Working for myself, I have the ability
to choose what I wish to do with my time. It's
incredible!
I really hope that as
many people as possible get the chance to read your
book. I wish I had it a few years ago - it would have
helped me tremendously!"
