Upwork just released its FIRST carbon report in 20 Upwork just released its FIRST carbon report in 2020. Fiverr has never done so.

Just because you're an online business, doesn't mean you're inherently sustainable. 

And as an eco-friendly business or freelancer, you might have considered using Upwork, or its competitor Fiverr before. Is Upwork or Fiverr good for eco-conscious business? If so, which one is better? Do either have any eco initiatives? 

As an environmental science graduate and someone who has collaborated with many eco businesses, I want to know.

Why are freelancers being hired at higher rates du Why are freelancers being hired at higher rates during the pandemic? 

Flexibility.

💻 Millions or workers turned virtual

📉 The economy is even more competitive

⁉️ The future is uncertain

So flexibility is key.

Freelancers Are More Flexible because:

1️⃣ Businesses can hire on a project-basis (which is cost-effective to)

2️⃣ Businesses can hire specialized experts to adapt to specific clients, including eco! 🌿🌿🌿

The three words that can truly make an entrepreneu The three words that can truly make an entrepreneur’s heart sink - 

😵"You’re 
😵 too 
😵 expensive.”

It’s hard enough as a small business to just figure out HOW to charge, but determining WHAT to charge and HOW to stick to it is another ball-game. 

🌿 Especially when you’re a business who invests the time and money into creating a brand that is eco-friendly, it can be hard to stomach the lower cost competition.🌿

But the phrase "You're too expensive" isn't a death sentence. 💀❌

Some tips to respond:

❌ Don’t Give Up and Assume You’ve Lost the Client 
✅ Take the time to understand their point of view and use it as an opportunity to explain your value better

❌ Don’t Panic and Lower Your Price
✅ Explain why you’re at your price point and perhaps offer a solution that takes less time

❌ Don’t Take it Personally & Get Defensive 
✅ Tell them you understand, and then get the facts 

To get a sample template of what exactly to say in your response, check out our latest blog - Link In Description.

The wage gap is still existing for freelancers. F The wage gap is still existing for freelancers.

Freelancing women in the creative industries are earning up to 32% less than their male counterparts. In a UK report by YunoJuno, which studied freelance pay rates in the creative industries, men were found to make an average of £350 per day whilst women make £308 per day. In other disciplines, the gap is even larger.

Closing the gender income gap in the freelancing world is something all of society needs to work on. There are many things we can do, but one of the best ways to help close the gap is prioritize TRANSPARENCY.

By sharing your rates, you help other female freelancers see what’s possible for them to earn. You also contribute to a growing dataset that can be used to analyze the extent of the freelancer pay gap.

It's a great first step!

Having an effective design and branding presence i Having an effective design and branding presence is about more than just sticking a cool font next to a colorful graphic.

It’s about standing out from the crowd, reflecting your core values, and creating a consistent, professional image for yourself. 

And when your to-do list could circle the circumference of the world, it’s probably worth taking a step back to outsource to the experts. 

And wouldn’t be great to hire a designer who gets what you stand for from the start — A designer who lives and breathes the same values you’ve built your business on? 

I’ve compiled some of the top designers in the UK who share your eco values. And they’re open for business!
