Being Freelance

Business


Christian spent the best part of two decades working in agencies before eventually going freelance. He’d had a couple of trial runs before but this time he wanted to do it properly.To Christian, that meant bringing in his own clients rather than setting up in the corner of an agency.And it’s working.These days, Christian gets most of his work via social media or word of mouth. He talks about taking a slow approach where the focus is on building relationships.He also chats to Steve about working at home with his wife (a fellow freelancer), collaborating on projects, and finding balance (by riding around on tractors every Friday when he volunteers at the local nature reserve). This episode of the Being Freelance podcast is supported by Gold Stag Accounts.Plain talking, friendly, freelance accountants.
