Freelance Forward
A weekly, feature-style newsletter on pricing, clients, systems, and the realities of freelancing in South Africa.
Why Freelance Forward exists
Freelance Forward is where the real thinking happens.
Each week, we write one considered piece. Not tips. Not hacks. Not recycled advice. Just clear thinking about how freelancing actually works when you’re operating in the South African context.
It’s written for freelancers, consultants, and independent workers who want calmer systems, clearer pricing, and fewer reactive decisions, without turning their work into a hustle-fuelled mess.
Who Freelance Forward is for
You’re freelancing or consulting in South Africa and want to make better decisions, not just more noise.
You care about pricing that makes sense, systems that don’t fall apart, and work that supports your life instead of swallowing it.
You’re not looking for hacks, hustle culture, or recycled internet advice. You want clear thinking, grounded experience, and tools you can actually use.
Want clearer thinking every week?
Freelance Forward is sent once a week. No noise. No hustle. Just grounded thinking about pricing, systems, and real freelance life in South Africa.
