More clients. More work.
Less everything else.

So: you love <insert your creative specialty here>, but you hate the other parts of being a successful freelancer. You know—sending awkward LinkedIn messages, doing month-end invoices for a bunch of clients with different systems, and oh yeah: figuring out what to charge and whether that should be project rate, hourly fee, or maybe you’ll just never send them an invoice at all because you still can’t decide between FreshBooks and QuickBooks (seriously: what’s the difference?).

Anyway.

When you join the Freelance Squad, you won’t have to worry about any of that. You’ll have interesting projects sent your way from fully vetted clients, while still getting to set your own rate—which, by the way, we can totally help with.

What it's like to work with the Freelance Squad

Think of us as a non-agency agency to help you match with incredible clients. You get all the benefits of being part of a collaborative, supportive community, while still being completely in control of your own business. We believe in pay transparency as the right way to do things, so you’ll always know what your work is going for. You choose the type of work, how much (or how little) you want to do, and what you want to charge.

Our job is three-fold: to help you find the work that gets you most excited, to work with you to negotiate the rates you deserve, and to share learnings, best practices, and advice on all things freelancing.

We’re in this together, so let's make it fun ✌️

What other Squad members are saying

Not having to worry about client acquisition, negotiating pay, or complicated invoicing has been a breath of fresh air. And working with a team of other skilled freelancers has not only been a valuable learning experience, but has also offered support you don't often get as a solo contract worker.

Highly recommend working with The Freelance Squad!

Teaming up with the Freelance Squad has made being an independent writer so much easier. Pitching clients has never been my strong suit and it's wonderful to have a partner who's so talented at making connections. The Squad team and the other freelancers are all fantastic humans and it's been a pleasure working with everyone.

The Freelance Squad changed my life. Like, LITERALLY. As a new freelance graphic designer, I took a leap of faith and left my traditional full time job to solely take on freelance projects. Scary- right? Well, not so much for me, thanks to Shannon at the Freelance Squad. I have been lucky enough to work with 10+ clients in the past year, so there's been no shortage of work. I get to choose my own hours, pick the projects I work on, and collaborate with this huge network of other talented folks. I am so grateful I stumbled upon this opportunity last year and can't wait to see what projects lie ahead!

The Freelance Squad is changing the game when it comes to freelancing. I've worked with Shannon and the Freelance Squad on both the client and freelancer side and have nothing but incredible things to say. As a freelancer, nothing gives me the ick more than having to negotiate rates and deal with invoicing; The Freelance Squad takes care of it all and has top-tier clients to boot. It saves me time, energy, (and anxiety), so I can focus on delivering work that clients love. If you're a client, trust me when I say that the ever-growing team at The Freelance Squad is made up of the best of the best. So whether you're looking to hire freelance talent or looking for creative support for your brand, The Freelance Squad is the place to be.
