🟢 7 Considerations for Choosing the Right Freelance Management Solution
#Freelance

1️⃣ Don’t ignore compliance regulations
Tax and legal compliance doesn’t have to be a headache when you have automation on your side. Look for a FMS that automated all the collection of relevant documentation, and validates that your freelancers align with both your internal governance, and wider industry-specific regulations.

2️⃣ Broaden your sourcing channels Finding the right freelancers is half of the job done. Many FMS technologies jump in to manage existing talent, but don’t help you find, vet and onboard skilled freelancers to start with. This is the equivalent of entering the playing field at half time.

3️⃣ Sidestep staffing agencies
Spoiler alert: those staffing agencies are slowing you down. The best freelance talent doesn’t need a middleman to help them find work, and they don’t usually engage with staffing agencies or Managed Service Providers.

4️⃣ Consider integrations
Let’s face it, your technology stack is higher than the to-be-read pile on your bedside table. The right FMS will seamlessly integrate alongside the rest of your organization’s systems and processes, and play nicely with everything from project management tools, to communication apps and payment systems.

5️⃣ What’s the cost?
Not all freelancer management systems will take the same hit on your bottom line. Some will charge a flat fee for using the system, or per freelancer. Others will charge a percentage of what the freelancers are earning each month.

6️⃣ Remove any stumbling blocks to relationship building
If you click with a freelancer, and want to continue working with them on additional projects, it can be a real hurdle if you can’t work with them off the platform. That’s why the best FMS will allow you to retain foundational ownership over the relationship.

7️⃣ Believe the crowd
Like with any important purchase, impulse buying is not your friend. Scour industry forums for reviews and information about your shortlist of FMS vendors, and look in particular for the features and capabilities that are important to your business.
