As businesses increasingly rely on freelancers, consultants, and external providers, managing these collaborations can be a complex and time-consuming process. Whether you're hiring freelancers for your own company or managing external talent on behalf of your clients, the administrative burden can slow you down.
The Real Challenges:
- Multiple Roles, One Big Headache: In some cases, you hire freelancers for your own projects. In others, you manage client projects. Switching between these roles isn’t always seamless.
- The Admin Overload: Approval workflows, invoicing, timesheets, and contract management create constant paperwork and delays. Tracking everything manually becomes a full-time job.
- Disconnected Processes: Without a centralized platform, communication and information get scattered across emails, spreadsheets, and various tools. Collaboration suffers as a result.
- Compliance & Risk: Managing VAT numbers, contracts, and work agreements can be tricky. One mistake could lead to legal and financial complications.
The result? Missed deadlines, inefficiencies, and a lack of visibility over budgets, approvals, and mission progress. Until now, businesses have lacked an effective way to manage external talent.
