One should never have to bury a child, no matter the age of the child or parent. Life is sometimes very hard. Please keep us all in your prayers. #FreelanceFriends #DigiBlogChat May we mourn in a manner that brings Glory to God, just as this child’s life did.

Question for the group - we're in a little transition here with Angela stepping back and such... If anyone is interested in helping to organize, brainstorm topics or have someone who'd make a great guest - let us know. Good community is a village and this one is a keeper! #FreelanceFriends

Are they going to have someone clean up the formatting? Things like that distract from the message of the book. I literally can't read something if I'm seeing typo's and messy formatting. #FreelanceFriends

The other day I noticed about dusk, a set of twin fawns and a yearling running in the upper back yard. When they paused Mom showed up and sent them running again, like “Go get your energy out so you can sleep well tonight.” Didn’t realize my yard had become a deer racetrack. #FreelanceFriends

Hi #FreelanceFriends! Hope you had a great Labor Day weekend! Welcome fall (even though it lacks a few being official)! Someone stated, “Our fall practice season is shorter than our spring one, Christmas is just around the corner.” #Life

A1: I reach out and ask questions about the additions. I get clarifications on anything I'm not sure about, and then quote them what it will cost for the additional work. Then, negotiate as needed. Most clients don't question an extra fee for extra work. #FreelanceFriends

A2. If a client asks me to do something outside my current skill set: 1. Does it sound fun? 2. Can I sell this service to other clients? 3. Can I talk about it in a social post and get some mileage? 4. Will the client pay enough to make it worth my while? 5. Do I have time? #FreelanceFriends

If an influencer is being paid to say what they say, then it really is just advertising in a different guise. If you don't trust marketing text, then you can't trust influencers. Sift the truth from the gimmick #DigiBlogChat

The best influencers often don't call themselves influencers. Scientists, educators, historians and skilled professionals build audiences by consistently explaining complex topics well. #DigiBlogChat

Financial disclosure may matter more than formal credentials. Knowing who paid for a recommendation often tells audiences more than knowing where someone went to school. #DigiBlogChat

A3. Correcting misconceptions is not as bad as it used to be. Before covid, people thought that home-based workers goofed off all day. But so many employees these days are self directed, so I think people have a better feel for what it's like to be self employed. #FreelanceFriends

Let's go! Q1: What do you call yourself? When you meet new friends who ask what you do for work, or when talking with possible business partners for the first time, how do you introduce yourself? Are there keywords or language you always use? Does the wording shift per audience? #FreelanceFriends
