Client Management

Introduction

80% of the help the Freelance Jungle provides relates to the client and freelancer relationship. So, in true Jungle style, we're looking to qualify that relationship so we can do something positive about it! 

This survey aims to explore the various strategies and techniques that freelancers use to manage clients. By examining the perspectives and experiences of freelancers, we hope to identify common challenges, best practices, and areas for improvement in client management. The results of this survey may be useful for freelancers looking to improve their client relationships, as well as for businesses seeking to understand the needs and preferences of freelance workers.

The results will be posted on the Freelance Jungle blog by EOFY. (That's here - https://freelancejungle.com.au/freelance-blog/). You do not need to be a member of the Freelance Jungle to share your thoughts in this research.
