New Article: The End (of the Year) is Nigh!
by Derek Torres
Now that the turkeys gone from last month's feast, lets have a
quick chat before we go into complacency mode professionally
speaking. There is still a fair amount of work today before you start
attending all of those client holiday parties!
Unfortunately, most of the tasks at hand will involve
financials - some that are for your benefit now, while others
are for further down the road. Even though the holiday season is all
about giving; lets not forget that youre an independent contractor,
so lets not give too much!
