If you’re a small business owner, consultant, or someone who wants to work with organizations much larger than your own, this article is for you. The goal of this article is to help business owners work more effectively with companies many times their size and to help level the playing field for a fairer and more just world.
I've been a freelance content marketing writer for years, and found everything you've said here to be completely true. The larger the organization, the slower things usually move—and I've never been able to dictate payment terms with a bigger company. It's good to know what to expect, and it's nice to have a mix of clients on my roster. Great post!
Katharine, thank you for this write up. We factored most of these considerations on behalf of new sustainability consultants in the design of our marketplace, FootForward. For instance, Providers can post their skills, certifications and availability, there, as well as send and receive documents securely and receive payouts via Stripe.
