The freelance business has changed enormously in the last 10 years. The Internet has turned graphic design into a global marketplace. Apps and services like Fiverr and Canva are driving down prices. And of course, everyone with a mobile phone is now a photographer.
How are we supposed to compete with that? How can designers, illustrators, photographers and other freelancers still get paid what we’re worth?

At the Freelance Forum, it's all Business Casual – until we get down to business.
No atmospheric pressure here! We network and socialize over sandwiches, spreads or pizza, catch up with new and old friends and introduce ourselves to first-time or frequent guests. Then we settle in for the night’s program and its follow-up Q&A.
Our programs always focus on running a creative business more successfully, with topics that address issues like fees, taxes, law, marketing, selling, interpersonal skills, business organization, technology and more. All to help you work smarter, faster, more efficiently and more profitably. So whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been at this for a while, you get no-fluff information tailored to your needs.
So join us for a meeting. Bring your questions. Hear that hot tip or horror story. And of course, share your own!
