Trainer: Catrin Rogers
Freelancing can be a juggle of clients, deadlines, work, finances – oh, and life! This quick guide to rebalancing your freelance life will guide you through everything from scheduling your working life to successfully negotiating contracts, fees and invoicing, managing your finances, networking and achieving a healthy work-life balance.
It’s focused on arts freelancers, especially those working in marketing, comms and/or press roles, but the lessons can be applied to any aspect of freelancing. It’s open to all, from those new to freelancing or considering freelancing, to experienced freelancers who might be feeling a little frazzled.
It’s also a great opportunity to network with other freelancers.
