Smarter management of freelancers saves big bucks!
Time is money and the quicker you can find the right individual for the right job, the better the result will be. Here are four things to consider when engaging freelance creatives for your business: 1. Pay for service. We do the chasing so your Creative Director doesn’t. 2. Pay for experience. By engaging experienced, task focused creatives they get the job done faster. 3. Pay for flexibility. Freelance creatives are flexible, use them that way. 4. Reduce your overheads. We ensure all freelancers are mobile and can work anywhere onsite or offsite, with their own computer, software and tools.
