Project4Hire.com
P.O. Box 954
Phoenixville, PA 19460
Phone: 484-744-3528 714 521 8150
Membership: Client's can register and post projects in specific categories at no cost whatsoever. Freelancer's will then bid on the project. Once the Client finds the right Freelancer with the appropriate skill set for their project, and the Client and Freelancer agree upon a price, the Client then chooses winning bidder and exchanges contact information with the Freelancer via email in order to begin the project.
Once a new Freelancer signs up, they can begin browsing projects in various categories and place bids on projects which are of interest to them. Freelancers are charged a "small fee", or a small percentage of the amount of the winning bid.
Project4Hire.com provides Client and Freelancer with safe transfer payment options to help projects get completed smoothly. The Client can set aside a specific amount of money into a safe transfer account located within Project4Hire.com, for a specific Freelancer. Both the Client and the Freelancer can then view the payment sitting in the safe transfer account, but only the Client can complete the payment to the Freelancer.
The Freelancer is the only person (other than Project4Hire.com admin) who can cancel this payment. This process gives each party half of the control over the money held in safe transfer. Once the project gets completed, the Client can then transfer the funds from the safe transfer account to the Freelancer. If the project is cancelled amicably, the Freelancer can then cancel the tranfer of funds which will then return to the Client account.
If there are any disputes over a project, Project4Hire.com admin must be contacted before any funds can be moved from the safe transfer account.
Project4Hire.com encourages its Client's and Freelancer's to send and receive money with the safe transfer system to ensure project satisfaction amongst all parties.
