How to Find the Right Freelancer to Help Grow Your Business

Start with people you know.

It's possible to know someone capable of doing freelance work.

LinkedIn can be used to have the "I know someone" conversation. For example, a former colleague or journalist may be moving, semi-retired, or looking for a side gig. These people might even know your business and what you need.

Search for freelance work

Hire temporary talent across many areas, including video production, graphic design, and SEO.

While you may not be able to meet these freelancers face to face, you can still get to know them online. These freelancers can also work remotely and can take full responsibility for their assignments.

Partner with local staffing agencies.

Sometimes, we need temporary staff. For example, we fulfil orders for brands that aren't in the same season. To fulfil large orders, it is crucial to hire multiple workers at once.

Even though your relationship with gig talent is temporary, you should treat them as permanent employees. It will be difficult for them to accept other gigs or join the company if there is a permanent opportunity.
