Description


Have you ever had a client that made you want to tear your hair out?


Have you ever eyed a new contract and thought, "Will this come back to haunt me?"


Ever wish that you could spot problems BEFORE they happened - or that you could work exclusively with reasonable, trustworthy clients and colleagues?


Freelancing is all about building strong professional relationships - but it can be easy to feel powerless as an independent worker. In our latest Freelance 360 event, expert Katie Lane will teach you how to take back your power and build happy, healthy relationships with clients (and collaborators).

You'll leave with:

  • A comprehensive list of red (and orange) flags to avoid
  • Advice on how to set boundaries in both your personal and professional life
  • Practical guidelines for pricing, standard agreements, contracts, and more
  • Highly effective negotiation tips and tactics


About Katie Lane:

Katie Lane is an attorney and negotiaton consultant who helps freelancers and independent artists protect their rights and get paid fairly for the work they do. Combining a background in theatre, years of experience negotiating multi-million dollar deals, and a deep affection for all things nerdy, Katie teaches freelancers how to negotiate in a style that feels comfortable, strong, and authentic. She posts weekly about negotiation and law on her blog at WorkMadeForHire.net.
