Freelancing has come a long way from being a temporary trend
to the global phenomenon that it has now become. The younger gen that had been
craving for freedom, flexibility & mobility in work, are now thriving with
options.
With rapid advancements in technology & infrastructure,
it’s now pretty easy to setup your own private workplace from the comfort of
your den.
5 years back, who would have thought that a designer sitting
from the Bahamas can also work for someone from the Canadian alps. That barrier
has long been broken now, for the good.
Freelancing is pretty much a win-win scenario for both
parties, if done professionally. But when the parties are sitting oceans apart,
you can’t totally avoid the chances of a few miss-communications.
Whether it’s a language barrier or the difference in
time-zones… you always need to be on your toes. And things can get real serious
if you’re dealing with a whole bunch of clients across the globe. Everyone has
different deadlines, time-zones.
