Shownotes Transcript

Freelancing is a future topic and freelancing is likely to become a much bigger topic in the future for creatives due to several reasons:

  • Remote work: With the rise of remote work and the COVID-19 pandemic, more and more companies are opting for flexible work arrangements. This trend is likely to continue, making freelancing a more attractive option for creatives.

  • Increased demand for flexible work: Many creatives are seeking more control over their work schedule and lifestyle, and freelancing provides that flexibility. As demand for this type of work arrangement increases, freelancing is likely to become a more popular option.

  • Technology advancements: With the increasing availability of online platforms and tools, it is easier than ever for creatives to find freelance work and connect with clients. This has made freelancing more accessible and appealing to a wider range of people.

  • Cost savings: Hiring freelancers can be more cost-effective for companies, as they don't have to provide benefits and other perks associated with full-time employees. This can lead to an increase in demand for freelancers.

  • Career advancement: Freelancing can provide creatives with the opportunity to work on a wider range of projects, gain new skills, and build their portfolio. This can lead to career advancement and greater job opportunities in the future.
