FirstFreelancerFriday – Freelancer Social

Freelancing isn’t for the clockwatcher. It isn’t for those wanting the ‘comfort’ of a job and a regular salary. It is for the brave, the very admirable bold. It is for those who know their value exists beyond being an employee. We all dream of the freedom that self-employment offers, but we also know that freedom comes at a price.

The path you’ve chosen is incredibly empowering, but it can also be profoundly lonely.

It doesn’t have to be.

Join us at #FirstFreelancerFriday, our monthly social get-together for self-employed freelancers of Joburg to meet other freelancers and hear inspiring stories, struggles and successes.

Remember the chats around the water cooler back in the office? We have wine. And snacks. Haven’t managed to escape the corporate grind yet? Come along, we’ll convince you to follow your dreams. Free for Better members / R50 non-members. Tickets here: https://www.quicket.co.za/events/35530-first-freelancer-friday-freelancer-social/

Social media Q&A for freelancers

  • Should I be using Facebook or LinkedIn?
  • Do I want my clients to friend me on Facebook?
  • Should I have a separate Facebook page for my freelance work?
  • How can I use social media to get more clients?

Social media presents wonderful opportunities for freelancers, but at the same time, vexing questions.

Join the freelance community at Better for an informal evening of Q&A about social media. Share your experiences and listen to how other freelancers use social media. Learn from each other’s mistakes and get ideas about what you could do differently.

Tracey Walker will be on hand to offer advice and guidance.

 

Time: 6pm to 7pm
