Yo, are you a Philly Freelancer?

Then you already know the truth that your traditionally employed friends don't understand.

Sure, it's great to be able to choose your own clients and projects. But it's not enough to be good at your skill and services you ALSO have to get good at marketing and sales and communication and finances and legal stuff and...it's a lot!

Freelancing isn't easy, and nobody succeeds alone.

These days, COVID-19 has made it even harder to find fellow freelancers and clients with whom you can connect, collaborate, and grow.

So our hope is that by bringing this diverse community of freelancers together, we can not only survive in these very unusual and uncertain times, but actually thrive.

Earlier this year, we introduced the Philly Freelance Fest, a unique networking and education experience which succeeded in uniting nearly 200 regional freelancers and clients from across 15+ categories.

"I was surprised at how beneficial it was for me to skip the workshops and network instead. I ended up building a much deeper connection to other freelancers and clients." - Lindsay P.

While we still plan to bring this event back once it's safe to do so, there's a lot we can do to continue supporting the freelance ecosystem in Philly. So we're not stopping now.

Our north star for this community hasn't changed, even if some of the details about how we come together have.

We hope you'll join us.
