💼 7 Important points on Freelancing
I was reading an article recently about freelancing, it was setting up boundaries when you start working with a client. I could relate to some of the points while I was working as a freelancer myself, so I thought of sharing with you all.
1. Anything else you need to discuss in the contract? Any loose ends? You can do a contract amendment or send a confirming email or letter to the client.
2. Let the client know your communication practices: When and how often you will check and respond to messages, etc. Which medium are you available and your prefer.
3. Let the client know your availability during weekends: Even if your are not available during weekends, say you will be happy to accommodate the client during emergencies.
4. Let the client know your availability during the workday: As a freelancer you are not bound by strict boss-timings. Let them know if and how they can leave a voice message and how soon will you get back. You can mention about the time range.
5. Let the client know how will update them: For example, weekly progress reports via email. This is good practice when you handling a premium client.
6. Structure the feedback and approvals: Get details such as key decision maker/s, approval process, who is your team is responsible for what, who will give the feedback etc. And also, what are the times (days of week, and time of day) for sending materials/updates etc.
7. Know any specific any policies or procedures of the client beforehand: For example, some clients have a specific day of the week when all payments are made. Its better to not neglect this especially when you are just starting out.
