Finding local businesses that use freelancers

[Noah Coffey]

One of the resources I'd like to start building on this site is a comprehensive list of local businesses that regularly hire freelancers to do web and graphic design work. I know of a couple that I've either worked with before or know about through a colleague.

Are there any local businesses that you've worked with in the past that tend to hire freelancers? If you can give their name and email or web address, I'll contact them eventually, get the details, and post it here.

Thank!

Excellent idea, Noah. My company, SpaceTech Corporation (http://www.SpaceTechCorp.com), has hired freelancers in the past and is currently looking for web developers (.NET) and occasionally graphic designers. I can be reached at [e-mail] or by calling [phone].

Thanks Chuck! I've started the list under the "Resources" tab. The developer in me wants to turn this list into a searchable database right this second. But, for now I'll just compile a simple list as I find them. Once we break a few dozen companies, I'll look at making the list searchable/sortable.

My company, Redwing Studio has hired a number of freelancers and I'm always looking for good developers and designers to work for/with us. For developers, we're looking for folks with PHP, MySQL, and PostgreSQL skills. We do a lot of work with WordPress as a CMS and occassionally Joomla! as well. Some of our business includes photographers, so we're always looking for folks with good Flash/Actionscript knowledge. Anybody is welcome to send me a link to their portfolio at ben [at] redwingstudio.com or they can ring me at 317-536-5930.
