       Employees
How to boost your work performance with
         ergonomical products
Fact: More and more people want to
          be “freelancers”

 Freelancing is the act of working without any
    long-term commitment to a specific company
   Nowadays more people are enamored by the act
    of working from home instead of working in
    establishments or companies.
   This trend has been on-going for years
   First for people seeking extra income or side-
    careers
   Now very popular even to younger professionals
    seeking legitimate money-making careers
The Charms of Freelancing

1.   Convenience – you don’t have to travel or even
     go out of your house just to work
2.   Flexible schedule – set yourself to work on
     your own pace
3.   Less stress – no more dealing with toxic co-
     workers
4.   You are your own boss – aside from your
     clients, of course
5.   You can have more time for other endeavors
     you want to pursue
All You Need:

 Your own computer/laptop and some other
  devices for your convenience
 A reliable internet connection
 An accomplished portfolio
 An ergonomic product based on your needs as
  well as your computer’s.
