How Does the Process Work?

Five quick steps

  • Search icon

    Search

    The client creates a search

    Creating a search uses simple drop down menus plus the client’s description of what’s needed and then our algorithm searches our freelancer talent pool. The search is completely confidential at every stage.

    Matches

    Our ‘heat map’ shows the matches

    In seconds we present the results in our unique talent ‘heat map’, with the client able to view the profiles of PR freelancers whose skills and experience match their criteria for the brief.

  • Shortlist Icon

    Shortlist

    The client creates a shortlist

    The client shortlists freelancers who look promising. Only the freelancers shortlisted see the brief and the two parties connect to discuss the details and work out if the chemistry is right.

  • Contract Icon

    Contract

    The client agrees terms

    Once a scope of work, budget and payment are agreed, the client appoints on the platform; the freelancer counter-signs. The contract is directly between client and freelancer.

  • Payment Icon

    Payment

    Invoicing and payment

    The freelancer invoices via our platform and payment is to our client account, where we levy 10% commission from the freelancer for work finding them that perfectly suits their skillset. We pay the freelancer in 2 working days.

What Makes a Strong Freelancer Profile?

  1. A person not just a set of skills – your profile pic is important but also a bio that not only lists the sectors you’re strong in but also what you’re like to work with
  2. Don’t say you work in dozens of sectors. It looks random and nobody is an expert in more than a few industries or categories. Be found for what you are good at, not everything you’ve ever done!
  3. A profile that can be digested quickly and doesn’t read like a CV or “how I won the war”
