I was reading Tara Hunt’s Blog and came across a great post that shot an idea from the back of my mind to my finger tips. I wonder if there is room in the marketplace for a freelancer called The Procrastinator. This isn’t an Arnold spoof. Before you attack hear me out.
The Procrastinators’ Service
- Come in and finish a project that has been on the shelf.
- Resurrect a project and complete it.
- On a tight deadline and can’t seem to finish it, call us to get it done.
- An employee quit on a tight deadline, perfect for us.
- Only have two days or even hours to get the project done, perfect fit.
- Put us on the clock. Create an urgency for the project and watch us get it done.
The Procrastinators are not for hire to come in and pre-produce and write copy for projects. The team has an extremely high IQ, therefore has a short attention span for minimal work. They work best when they are under pressure. Where most people fail under stress The Procrastinators thrive. Not responsible for Stumbling in between tasks that are complete. It is up to the management to make sure each step of the project is ready to go forward. Must have well written instructions in order to move the project along. The hiring company must sacrifice a manager to work with The Procrastinators unless the team insists that the manager is the problem. We do not work under contracts, only day rates… even if it is for an hour.
Now hiring!!! This post took 10 hours to write.
