I landed a dream client this year, so I thought, but it backfired. They take up so much of my time that I barely have energy to chase new work... now I feel trapped. I can't drop them but I feel like I'm drowning. WWYD?

Soon to be making 85k in LA, looking to move to a new apartment. What would you think is reasonable to spend on a 1 bedroom (not studio)?

Hoping for a bump at next review. Should I mention it now? Will either kick epic ass or fail massively in the next few months.

3 yoe, new to the negotiation thing. Tips for reaching a fair amount, w/o sounding too conceited? Little visibility on salary benchmarks and I’m assuming HR starts on the low end.

I’m a year into my current role and am seeking help finding PM Resources. I am taking over PM duties and systems here and we simply lack a system

Any suggestions or cost friendly software you all use ? Our setup is on average 100 customer facing projects, 3 certification engineers - projects range vastly in duration and costs but I need some sort of system to better manage them

Colleague has put in his resignation. They are offering him whatever he wants to stay including 4days a week work from home. He’s not bluffing and plans to leave. However, at this same time I was asked to begin working as a supervisor for the engineering team and I would get a promotion at the beginning of the year. I have been supervising and managing our team of 6 for months with no extra pay or bonuses. I was told yesterday that raises will be light this year. Yet today they spare nothing.

Is booking 40hrs a week freelancing for one company a good idea? Or does that seem like you don’t have anything else going on? I would like a good work life balance with the ability to take off weeks at a time in the middle of all this.

Any advice on how to get clients to pay your invoice on time / what to do when they don't? I'm currently working with an agency who agreed to net 30 terms, but has been late with every invoice so far...It's probably a lost cause on this particular job, but Im wondering if there's anything I can do in the future to avoid this situation. Does anyone charge a fee when invoices aren't paid on time? Or is this just par for the freelance life?

Do you ever want to kick yourself for taking on a small client?

I’ve come to a point where I just started at the green dot on my laptop camera when talking. I want to do the Errol Morris interrotron to get some sort of connection. The lack of eye contact or staring off to the side from other participants makes me think they have high anxiety or on the spectrum like rain man.

All of my writers are busy. Went FT, family stuff, already booked. I had to leave a 5 week contract on the table because I don’t have a deep enough writer pool. I’m 17 years in the biz, have awards and primarily do TV and Digital. CD/AD. Anyone interested in building a professional partnership? Let me know.

Does anyone know of a coworking spaces that focus on creatives and/or marketing companies? All the ones I know of like technexus, wework and 1871 in Chicago are tech company focused.

Fellow freelance ADs! What are typically the slowest months of your year?

Is LA the worst right now or am I just the worst?

Friendly reminder folks- don’t work for Havas Health and You. They cut the freelancers hourly rates, again and made it so there’s no OT. The resource manager at HOV said if I couldn’t swing $80 an hour as an HCP copywriter, she’d have to find someone else. Good luck 👍🏻

How is the freelance world looking in Chi right now?

Is charging $1 per word reasonable for someone w/10 years of copywriting experience?

3 freelance inquiries in one day. All 3 about how they need someone with my specific experience, all 3 offering half my usual hourly rate. I said OK since I'm not booked. After telling me to "hang tight" all three ghosted.

How has anybody had luck with getting freelance account gigs? Been silent in LA

On the verge of turning an hourly client into a retainer. Any tips?

Massachusetts freelance but go to NY/travel for work occasionally. I am looking at marketplace insurance and leaning towards a Tufts plan. Anyone have problems with Tufts? The BCBS higher cost but there does not appear to be a good reason. I’m afraid of some of the smaller places/never heard of. Transitioning off Cobra with United Health. Anyone have advice?

Recently started freelancing and working from home and realized that I really need a quality office chair cause my current one is killing my back. Any suggestions below $500 if possible?

If I contribute to a solo 401k, is the additional profit-sharing contribution (the 25% of compensation after the $19500 contribution) based on my gross income, or is it based on gross income minus expenses? Thank you🙏🏼

Anyone have any advice on who to contact for merch/apparel related gigs? Preferably in the music or sports industry. Recommendations for agencies that focus on this are also greatly appreciated!
