Hello fellow freelancers!

I was just offered a freelance part-time project manager/program manager role. They’ve asked me for my hourly rate and I don’t want to undercharge since it’s a 6 months engagement. Any insights on what the standard rate is?

Make sure to add a kill fee in your contract so they are held liable if they cancel your 6 month

Same. What is the average for a 6 month gig? I’m probably backfilling for some ogling on maternity leave and no idea what to charge. All remote.

Hello Fishes,

Well, I was the one who broke it off. I couldn’t get him to love me the way I needed or even respect me enough. It’s been 6 weeks of not seeing each other. We messaged this week. He doesn’t get it…. His messages show he still doesn’t know what he wants. Yet, if I am totally honest, I hate how part of me wishes he would do a grand gesture/finally decide to be a better man. It’s delusional. It’s crazy how love can be so rosy, sweet & blinding that the red flags seem surmountable.

Good general resource on Freelancing 101? I've got an hourly rate put together, but want to get more research in on nit-picky things (LLC vs Corp, tax information, best practices, etc.)

So is clients asking for a unpaid writing test “that shouldn’t take more than two hours” really a thing? When I asked the recruiter how they intended to pay me for those two hours, I was told it’s an unpaid test but’s she’d see if they would make an exception 🤔

I politely passed on the opportunity.

In this job market with all the layoffs, should I count my blessings and take what I can get or is there wiggle room.
YOE: 10

Just got word that I didn’t get a gig I was excited about for 48 hours. Freelancing is like a drug. High from the email asking your availability. Low if it doesn’t go through.
