Deal with good people, use a contract anyway
The ability to have freedom of choice is something seemingly innate to freelancing. Where to work, how to work, who to work with. With this mind set it seems that having a contract is also one of those optional choices. Well, think again. As a freelancer your commitment is to run a business… and businesses include contracts.
In the midst of working with a friend on a contract, he sent me an e-mail with the quote “You can’t have a good contract with a bad person.”* He hates contracts. A lot of freelancers and business owners do. They slow down projects and are a hallmark of the corporate world.

Discussion Series Recap
Wow! What an incredible time for all at the CollabMiami Discussion Series Meetup!
The vibe was awesome at TamboWorks, an awesome new coworking space in the heart of South Miami. The founders were on the floor and made everyone feel welcomed from the get-go.
From the onset, the meetup engaged everyone in the room. The subject matter at hand was “How to scale your freelance business.” As soon as the topic hit the floor everyone enthusiastically joined in. I mean everyone. Ideas and suggestions came from every direction. Everything from “How do you know you’re choosing to collaborate with the right freelancer?” to “What apps are best to keep team communication functioning?” were discussed. All in the spirit of freelancer helping freelancer.
This is what makes CollabMiami meetups far more then another event on a calendar. It is not about one person’s expertise being expounded upon. It is about a community of professional freelancers coming together to meet, share information and help each other along the freelance journey. It doesn’t get better then this.
Till the next meetup,
