How do you keep track of varying jobs for 200 companies? How often do you look at their job boards?
I keep a spreadsheet of all of the MSC's with their contact info, login, payment terms & method, and notes. But I don't work with all of them at the same time. I stick to my favorite 10 and just pick up some interesting jobs that I like from others. I work off of the emails that I receive, plus I get lots of phone calls asking me to pick up jobs. My list has 260 MSC's I haven't yet signed up for them all. And that is just what I have found from various lists and out of the forum. I do go through the list every few months and sign in to the actual website, check & update any personal information or improvements I've made. Check their job board.
I like IPSOS, North Fork Research, Intellishop, Alta360, Reality based group. They all have a proven track record with me, paying on a timely basis and the ability to get decent pay for jobs. I am strange because I like doing storage unit facilities. I do shops & audits. It is great money for the time & work involved. I pick those up from different MSC's. I do grocery store shops & like gas station audits. Plus, I will go with A Closer Look if I want to go to a nice restaurant! They pay well and state exactly the date you will get paid up front.
Every month, I keep a monthly manilla folder where I list the MSC, the client and the pay/reimbursement amount. Then the following month(s) when I get paid I just cross it off the list. I forward unpaid items so that I can follow up with that MSC. I did have a massive spreadsheet that I used each month but grew tired of entering all the info and went back to writing on a folder.
