Do the work. We handle the clients.
We find the clients, manage them, and pay you. You report to us and do the work. You never deal with the client directly.
Project-based freelance work. Remote-friendly.
Why join
Work that fits you, on your terms
You do the work you're good at, you decide how much of it, and you earn more when you bring us a client.
Work that matches your level
We assign projects based on your skills and experience, so you get work you can do well, never work you aren't ready for.
Be your own boss
You choose which projects to take and how much work you want. Take a lot, take a little, or pass on a project. It's your call.
No chasing clients
We find and manage the clients, so you never chase feedback, approvals or payment.
Referrals
Know a business that needs a website? Earn $300
You don't sell or manage anything. Introduce them, and we take it from there. Earn $500 when the project is $6,000 or more.
01
Introduce them
Email us the business name, a contact, and what they need. Do it before they contact us.
02
We take it from here
We talk to them, scope the project and handle the client.
03
You get paid
$300 when the client signs a project of $2,000 or more, $500 for $6,000 or more. We pay you within 30 days after the client pays in full.
New clients only
The business must be new to us, not someone we're already talking to.
First introduction wins
If two people introduce the same business, credit goes to whoever emailed first.
90-day window
The client needs to sign within 90 days of your introduction.
One reward per client
You are paid once per client, on their first project.
Send the introduction by email, so there is a clear record of who introduced whom.

Check the fit before you apply
This is project-based freelance work. Here is who it suits, and who it doesn't.
This is for you if
You do strong work in marketing, design, writing or development.
You want projects without finding or managing clients.
You like choosing your own workload.
You keep deadlines and reply promptly.
This is not for you if
You want a full-time job with a salary or benefits.
You want your own direct relationship with the client.
You need a guaranteed amount of work every week.
You want to agree scope and price with the client yourself.
Every marketing role is on the table
We consider all roles. If yours isn't listed, apply anyway and tell us what you do.
Roles we're open to
What we look for
Proof of real work
A portfolio, live links, or case studies we can look at.
Reliable communication
You reply to us within one business day while a project is running.
Deadlines you keep
You agree a scope and a date with us, and you hit it.
Your own setup
Your own tools and equipment, and you can work remotely.
Contractor-ready
You invoice us as a freelancer or a business.
Nice to have: experience with small businesses, a specialty industry (beauty, trades, hospitality), and the knack of explaining your work in plain language.
From application to first project
You apply
Fill in the form below and attach your best work.
We review and reply
Every application is read and your work is looked at. You hear back quickly, whatever the answer is.
You join the bench
We keep your details and reach out when a project fits you.
Project starts
We share the brief, scope, timeline, and terms before you begin. You work with us, not the client.
5
You report to us
You deliver your work to us. We review it and handle everything with the client.
6
We pay you
You are paid by us, not by the client, on the terms agreed before the project started.
To be straight with you: this is project-based freelance work, not a job. There is work when client projects land, and we can't promise a set amount. We find the clients and pay you directly. You report to us and never deal with the client, and your rate and payment terms are agreed with you before each project starts.
Show us your best work
The more clearly you show what you did, the faster we can match you to a project.
Files or links. Attach PDFs, images, or ZIPs in the form, or paste links (Behance, Dribbble, Google Drive, your own site). For big files, send a link.
Your role and specialty
Which role you are applying for, and what you do best.
Your best work
A portfolio link, or 3 to 5 attachments. Pick the pieces you are proudest of.
Your part in each piece
What you did on it, and the result if you know it.
Your rate
Hourly, daily, or per project. A range is fine.
Availability and time zone
When you can start and how many hours a week you have.
Anything that helps us match you
Industries you know, tools you use, and languages you work in.

It takes a few minutes. We read every application and will get back to you very shortly.

Before you apply
Is this a job?
No. This is freelance, project-based work. We reach out when a client project matches your skills, and you decide whether to take it.
Will I work with the client directly?
No. We find and manage the clients, and you report to us. You don't get client contact details, and you never have to chase feedback or payment from a client.
Can I refer clients?
Yes, and we reward it. You earn $300 for every new client who signs a project of $2,000 or more, and $500 for projects of $6,000 or more. We pay you within 30 days after the client pays in full. We take it from there and handle the client.
How is work assigned?
We match each project to your skills and experience level. You choose which projects to take, and how much work you want.
How fast will you reply?
Very shortly. Every application gets a reply, even when the answer is not yet.
What if my role isn't listed?
Apply anyway. We consider all roles, so tell us what you do and show us the work.
Where do I need to be based?
Remote is fine. Tell us your location and time zone in the application so we know when you are available.
How and when do I get paid?
We pay you, not the client. Your rate and payment terms are agreed with you before each project starts, so you always know what you will be paid and when.
Can I send more than three files?
Yes. Put more work in a ZIP under 10 MB, or paste a link to your portfolio or a shared folder in the form.
