I lurked on the Seeds of Wisdom forum for years, then life got in the way and tonight I just saw that I last logged in December of 2006 (wow!).
I come back to post here, having finally begun to fulfill a dream I have had for years, of working from home. I have a personal website online now, one that offers a kind of service to a specific sector of people. I am putting everything in place to build a solid foundation. There is one more thing that needs to happen before I can begin to promote the site.
I am looking for two to three native speakers of each of the following languages: French, German, Spanish and Russian.
- What they would be required to do is not difficult. Good knowledge of grammar and spelling is a must, but no specialized knowledge is needed, other than their language ability.
- They must have access to a computer with Microsoft Word, and email (to communicate with me).
- Time invested: initially estimated at a total of 15-18 hours, in each of those languages. One native speaker could do it alone. If I can find two native speakers of a particular language, they could divide that total between them. The work does not have to be done all at once, and the time frame to accomplish it is flexible, but I would like to see it accomplished within one to two weeks of agreeing to work together.
- The people I find will only work directly with me.
They will not initially be paid for what they do. The kind of person who would do this will see the website, like the idea, and be willing to invest a small amount of time at no risk in return for a share of the profit in the near future, as well as the opportunity to continue the work if they like (the need for native speakers will always exist with this service).
If you or anyone you know might be interested, I would be glad to share the URL--you can email me at my contact info below. If you're just curious and you want to take the time to email me and find out what this is, I would be happy to let you know.
Please excuse the length of this post. Aside from talking to family and friends, I am only searching for these types of people in two places online: the Seeds of Wisdom forum and at Friends in Business, because I know and trust the majority of the forum members in both places. Your collective wisdom, humor and persistence has sustained me over the years, and I am grateful.
Sincerely,
Cindy Dunn
