A freelancer is someone that is hired for a particular job or period and is not tied to any one employer. Typically a freelancer has several clients, occasionally at the same time if the projects are not full-time. Work may be carried out on an hourly, daily, weekly or monthly basis.
So why would you use a freelancer for your online or digital marketing?
Specific Skill Set - Your company may need someone with a certain skill set to kick off or complete a short term project when you do not have enough resource/ time to do it in-house.
Save Money - You may have projects like affiliate programmes, email campaigns, search engine optimization or any other web assignments that only require a few hours or days a month of someone's time. Hiring a full time person can be expensive.
Provide Vital Cover - An employee in your company may be going on leave and you need a skilled person to take over their tasks so business can carry on as normal.
No Agency or Recruitment Fees - These can often work out at 15-20% of an employee's salary.
Available at Short Notice - Freelance marketers are often available at short notice and are prepared to work odd hours in order to meet your deadline.
Need Little Training - You don't normally have to spend much time training a freelancer because you're hiring them for their existing skills. You can just let them get on with the job.
Staff Costs - Your employee costs are kept to a minimum since you don't pay a freelancer for holidays, sick leave, getting in late, lunch breaks or surfing the internet on company time. Freelancers can work from home if you don't have the desk space available.
Experience - Since we've often worked for several companies you can benefit from a wide range of experience. We're also willing to try new things and you benefit from the latest research and methodology. In addition, we often know people in the industry that can help with almost any marketing problem.
Be Treated like a Client - We want to do everything in our power to impress you which includes working to a high standard, getting work done on time and returning your calls quickly.
