Working as a freelancer can be a fulfilling career experience.
Whether your field is creative, administrative, commercial, or a combination of these there are opportunities to not just make a living, but to thrive.
However, that’s not to say that it is always easy.
It’s a given that the COVID-19 pandemic has caused at least some form of change in your life.
One of the most notable is the increased focus on working from home.
Indeed, the benefits that remote operations provide workers — that sense of flexibility and the potential for a better work-life balance among them — may mean that you’re starting to examine how you can more permanently embrace it.
Freelance work can be some of the most rewarding and the most challenging work out there.
You can be everywhere and nowhere — your work is defined by the job at hand, whether it’s a project that will take months to complete or just a couple of hours.
You aren’t defined by one single company, nor do the intricacies of day-to-day office life consume your time.
Freelancing is often touted as an incredible lifestyle replete with luxury schedules, work-from-home options, and the ability to have a greater sense of control over your career.
Hiring a virtual assistant for your business is a big decision that you can’t afford to take lightly.
Make the right choice and it can benefit you and your business in several ways. But make the wrong choice and it can cost you time and money.
Freelancing has become an iconic part of the 21st-century workforce as tens of millions of individuals in the U.S. alone have left full-time employment to work for themselves in recent years.
With such a huge influx of “fresh freelance blood,” so to speak, there was bound to be a natural shift in the landscape of the industry.
This is especially true when it comes to classic freelance struggles like maintaining and understanding the importance of work life balance.
Offering freelance services has become a popular route for many American workers, unsurprisingly.
It offers the freedom for workers to take control of their own schedules, and our digital era has helped to ensure that many freelancers can operate from wherever they are in the globe.
As of 2018, there were over 56 million freelancers in the U.S. Now, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, more people have found themselves either working remotely for the first time, or trying out the gig economy as it continues to rise in popularity.
There are many benefits to freelancing from home.
