Smarter management of freelancers saves big bucks!
Time is money and the quicker you can find the right individual for the right job, the better the result will be. Here are four things to consider when engaging freelance creatives for your business: 1. Pay for service. We do the chasing so your Creative Director doesn’t. 2. Pay for experience. By engaging experienced, task focused creatives they get the job done faster. 3. Pay for flexibility. Freelance creatives are flexible, use them that way. 4. Reduce your overheads. We ensure all freelancers are mobile and can work anywhere onsite or offsite, with their own computer, software and tools.
Why be represented by The Pond?
Representation by The Pond means access to more opportunities without many of the usual hassles, like chasing invoices when you’re freelancing or getting employers to answer their phones when you want a full-time role somewhere else. It also means someone to back you up if there’s ever an issue.
Are you a remote business? No worries, we've got designers for you too.
Do you have a lack of quality local digital designers in your town? The Pond have some of the best designers in the market and they can be available to you without being in the same city. Our freelancers love remote clients because this gives them the flexibility to work from home and support local NZ businesses. They can provide you with the guidance you need to get your brand recognised! Get in touch with me to connect you with fresh new talent.
