Unfortunately is usually the freelance newbies that get bitten,
especially if there having problems getting enough work in.

They would be far better spending the time learning how to promote
themselves than chasing somebody else's ill conceived pipe dream.

Even if that means walking round to all the local small businesses with
some bumf and a business card, and having a chat with the owners.

And even if that fails to get you immediate work you will have done some
valuable local promotion and met some new people.
