Freelance Survival Guide: How to Survive as a Freelancer

Freelance Survival Guide

Whether you’re a working parent who wants to be at home more often, or you want the flexibility to travel every week, look at this freelance survival guide.

With the rise of workplace communication technologies that allow you to instant message, video call, and share screens with your coworkers, working from home is more and more accessible.

However, being a freelancer poses a few difficulties that you wouldn’t otherwise encounter as a salaried employee.

The work and income can be unpredictable, your out of pocket expenses for healthcare may skyrocket, and working long hours in solitude.

Despite these challenges, many find freelancing to be a rewarding career move.

A mentor and support network of friends and professionals will become an invaluable resource to you.
