Hi There, I’m a Senior freelance Digital PM/Producer based out of Toronto, Canada. I figure with remote work being the norm now, there would be more opportunity to collaborate with US agencies. Has anyone had the experience of doing this? I know some agencies have strict hiring protocol but I am incorporated. Any advice would help! Thank you

Hi there, I am looking for companies/referrals hiring AE roles right now. I have 4 years full sales cycle experience and have been a top rep at my HR Tech company located in San Diego. Looking for a hybrid role in San Diego or remote position. Anything would be helpful, thanks in advance!

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

Asking for a friend:
My friend received two job offers for Account Executive roles: a Mid-Market role with Confluent and an Enterprise role with ThoughtSpot. He’s conflicted because Confluent is a more established company, ThoughtSpot is Pre-IPO. Confluent is a lucrative product to sell and has established SDR reps so there’s a good blend of inbound and outbound sales. Thoughtspot is more of a startup culture where most of the sales comes from outbound and it’s a tougher sell.

What holiday party did you get?
Anyone living close to an office, got a holiday party with food and drinks, and the venue started open for them until around midnight. Our remote workers got a one hour party w a DJ and trivia that let you win gift cards. Yeah it was nice to win a gift card but I found it lame in comparison to hanging out with my team in real life.

LA or remote, seeking retouching opportunities.

Coming up for air and hearing of looming freelance/contractor opportunities. DM me if you’re a senior producer and interested and and available for a gig in-house, brand-side for a cable/tech project. Fast paced, all remote, but team is on East Coast so those would be the hours.

Are u an Agency or Brand looking 4 a freelance producer for upcoming projects? Connect here w/freelance producers who are looking for their next gig. Typically word of mouth, made easier by a Bowl.

I am booked at an agency that is filled with toxic people and I got offered a freelance job at a really great agency. I am two weeks into a four week booking but they said that usually keep freelancers on for a really long time. Right now I am only working on edits. Do you all think it would be OK to tell the agency that I’m currently at that I’m going to leave for another booking or is that really bad?

Thoughts on recruiting firms in LA? Looking to freelance beginning in Oct / Nov!

Feeling discouraged as a new freelancer with no work right now. I’m trying to network during the down time but nothing seems to be getting bites. Any advise? Or any others feeling the same way?

Day rate v. Hourly I currently accepted a rate for 20 hours a week, which I don’t like doing because I always end up working more. How do you define your hours in these instances and make it known that they aren’t paying you to be available all day long?

Looking for junior level producer to join a kick-ass team at a new agency launched in 2020 within a well known tech Brand. Great opportunity for someone with an entrepreneurial spirit, w/a few years of production experience, looking to learn how to make tv spots, online videos, social content and radio spots. Should be able to handle multiple projects at a time, be willing to roll up sleeves and wear many hats. Agency is all remote for now but offices will be in Soho, NYC. DM for more info.

Are there other resources like SourceCreative through Extreme Reach for finding production & post partners? Would love some alternative options.

Available freelance. 10 years of experience in communication, photography and Digital Media. First 5 years as a TV host and latter half as a photographer and digital media Consultant

I recently went freelance as an EP and started my own LLC as well (to get the full benefits of being a freelancer). Some agencies and clients want to pay on a W2 versus 1099 / as an independent contractor. Should I still take the gig if W2 or stand my ground and pass?

Any integrated producers looking for a full time job? San Diego based company looking for a integrated producer. Let me know if you’re interested!

I’ve been working with a founder/small biz freelancing as their digital producer for a little bit. I’m having issues lately because they won’t give me a budget for content they want to make for their site/Instagram. I’m worried with the budget gate keeping that we’re going to burn bridges with contacts, especially now that we’re dipping into my personal contacts for content collaboration. Is this normal? How do I get them to give me a budget to work from?

Fins up if you are looking for someone to help you re-do your resume...

After freelancing for years and doing well, would you consider a full time job? It's really hard to give up the flexibility of freelance, but... also hard to give up having a 401k match again. Salary would be similar to freelance money, but less time off. Thoughts?

Has any freelance producers felt like it’s a quieter month or two right now and not getting work? Been looking for work and have never had an issue before. But striking out. Starting to get a little nervous. Any tips? Thoughts? Would love to hear the longest you’ve ever been out from work freelancing.

Fresh thread for a rate check amongst us producers?

I want a raise but think agencies will scoff. At $1200 and want to bump up to $1300.

17 yrs broadcast/video, some awards, agency, brand and post experience.

How do you choose which production company to work with? ie. What are the characteristics or criteria you look for when making your decision? What makes you trust that company?

Any digital producers out there who are savvy with DCO? Remote assignment for a Brand through EOY. DM me if that’s you!
