Hello again, my fellow Jamaicans? Ready to make money online?
If you’ve read my blog article on freelancing (Deer, 2017, September 18), you may be wondering to yourself, are there more profitable and steady freelancing opportunities than those mentioned?
Granted the ones mentioned in my original freelancing article (Deer, 2017, September 18) make money, but that is really passive income; it’s not regular and is not meant to be a job replacement, but a supplement to your current income.
Globally, there is a demand for certain types of Freelancing jobs:
They also provide work-at-home jobs for Virtual Assistants, effectively making them a Virtual Call Center Services similar to Versatel Marketing (Deer, 2018, January 6).
Virtual Assistant – Payment and Hardware required
First, before you can work online, a few things are essential:
[*]Payoneer Account (Deer, 2015, September 10), an Bank of America Prepaid Debit Card
[*]Scotia VISA Debit (Deer, 2012, February 13) or CIBC First Caribbean VISA Debit Card
[*]Broadband Internet at home from FLOW or Digicel Play (Deer, 2016, June 28)
[*]Notebook or Journal to keep Track of all your Online Accounts and Passwords
[*]Portfolio of Published Written Work on a blog or Website online i.e. Blogs, e-books
[*]A VPN (Virtual Private Network) Connection
[*]A Friend or relative living abroad
[/ul]The Paypal Account (Deer, 2015, September 9) allows you to receive payment from clients online. The Payoneer Account (Deer, 2015, September 10) comes with a special Prepaid Mastercard that can also receive payment but allows you to use your earnings locally at any POS (Point of Sale) device or online like a regular Credit Card. The Scotia VISA Debit Card (Deer, 2012, February 13) or CIBC First Caribbean VISA Debit Card is just to verify your Paypal Account.
Broadband Internet at home from FLOW or Digicel Play (Deer, 2016, June 28) is a must. Some jobs, such as a Webcam modelling (Deer, 2016, October 15) and video editing (Deer, 2017, November 8) will require you to have solid Broadband connectivity.
A friend or relative abroad with a US address is also great, but you can easily use your ShipMe (Deer, 2013, September 15) address for the purpose of having a mail-able US based address in case they need to send you an item.
Finally, the VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a must (Deer, 2017, June 11), as you need to mask your country of origin. Once you have these things in place, you’re good to go.
The requirements for the job are quite simple really. They can be split in to two parts:
The Computer and Equiptment Requirements are a bit more important:
The work area needs to have noise dampening covering, such as pointed sponge on the walls to eggs carton cases that can reduce reflected noise and external noise. Also, your headset need to be a noise cancelling Headset that filters out external noise as well, as your calls need to sound as if you’re in a quiet office space.
Virtual Assistant – Average pay higher than US$10 per hour
