Today marks one year since I went #freelance to travel East Asia with my partner. Since I technically don't have a boss I'm giving myself an annual review. Here are the highlights: ✅ START Making more connections with other freelancers. Being freelance can be lonely. Being freelance across the other side of the world from your friends, family and colleagues is something else! It's been tough at times and I need to make more of an effort to connect with others. ❌ STOP Assuming any prospective project is guaranteed. Early on I made a huge mistake and massively undersold myself because I thought I was a dead cert for a project. I wasn't, and it cost me a huge client that would have skyrocketed my early freelance career. ⏩ CONTINUE Taking on projects that push your skills. We really wanted to push ourselves this year, after getting into a rut over Covid. Being freelance has forced me to broaden my skills and learn new tools, and the experience of doing it all on the go has hugely increased my resilience. **** Photo for attention: My first day of work in 2024, overlooking Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong. #RemoteWork #DigtalNomad

Freelance talent can bring more to the table. With less commitment. If you’re hiring with a freelance-first mindset... Establish goals and KPIs. And watch them answer the call.

💡Quick advice for senior tech freelancers: You can’t budget projects like a senior if your productivity and quality match that of a junior. Seniority isn’t just about years of experience; it’s about evolving to achieve more in less time. Focus on improving your efficiency and expertise to truly reflect your seniority, and ask your clients for feedback to make sure you are on the right track. #tech #productivity #freelancing #seniority

📢 New paid opportunity We're looking for a group of UK based freelancers to join Creating Now For The Future - a new steering group that will co-design resources tailored for freelancers and individuals making creative work. Want to work together to develop new accessible resources focusing on sustainable, ethical and responsible practice? If you're a freelance artist, creative, community practitioner or producer you can apply if you've been creatively practicing or producing for at least 3 years. You might be working short term contracts, operating alone or with venues, festivals, other artists & communities. Perhaps you feel uncertain about how to navigate environmental responsibility in the arts & cultural sector? Or maybe you've already begun to consider sustainability in your practice, in the stories you tell & the art you make and want to develop that further? Creating Now For The Future is acknowledging the challenges faced by those without traditional venues or the infrastructures of a company supporting them. Through two online workshops and some home research we’ll explore the concepts of environmental responsibility and work towards a sustainable and eco-conscious creative future, developing useful resources and ideas for the sector.

Freelancers are the unsung heroes connecting the world and driving the global digital economy. They are the epitome of the 'work from anywhere' culture, providing their skills and expertise from their corner of the world to clients across continents. By breaking traditional geographical barriers, freelancers create a global labor market, where talent is shared and utilized irrespective of physical location. Through the power of the internet and digital platforms, freelancers can collaborate with individuals and businesses on a global scale. They offer services ranging from writing, designing, programming, consulting, and much more, allowing companies to tap into a diverse and dynamic talent pool. Furthermore, freelancers foster cross-cultural exchanges and global understanding. They become bridges between cultures, languages, and industries, connecting people from different backgrounds through shared projects and collaborations. In this way, freelancers are not just individuals offering their services; they are connectors, innovators, and global citizens contributing to a more interconnected world. Through their work, they demonstrate that despite our geographical differences, we can collaborate and create value together. #Freelancing

🚫 My Experience with Freelancer.com ( username :- sifen1 )🚫 Freelancer.com , I wanted to share a recent experience I had with Freelancer.com. Without any warning or clear explanation, my account was banned from their platform. As someone who relies on freelance work, this abrupt action has significantly impacted my professional activities. Despite numerous attempts to contact their support team for clarification and resolution, I have yet to receive a satisfactory response. Transparency and communication are crucial for any platform, especially one that connects freelancers with clients globally. I hope Freelancer.com takes note of this and works towards improving their user support and communication processes. To all my fellow freelancers, be cautious and ensure you have a backup plan in case something like this happens to you. #Freelancer #Freelancing #FreelanceLife #ProfessionalExperience #CustomerService #Transparency
