With each, you’re working for free. In this episode I compare the concepts of spec and pro bono work, lay out reasons why you should pursue one and entirely avoid the other, and offer a safe approach to accepting and managing pro bono projects. <span style="color: #be8841;"><strong>SHOW LINKS</strong></span> <a href="https://www.nospec.com"><strong>No!Spec</strong></a> <a href="https://designobserver.com/feature/design-competition-as-bake-off/39527"><strong>Design Competition As Bake-Off </strong></a> <strong><a href="https://freelanceroadtrip.com/email">Newsletter Subscription</a></strong> <a href="https://portland.aiga.org/design-contests-are-unethical/"><strong>Design Contests Are Unethical</strong></a> <strong><a href="https://freelanceroadtrip.com">Freelance Road Trip Program Membership</a></strong> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-2f230f4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading" data-id="2f230f4" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="heading.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <h3 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default">How To Own Your Freelance Choice and Be Proud Of It</h3> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-27083661 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="27083661" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <p><span style="color: #333333;">Is freelancing one step away from unemployment? Can you succeed in freelancing with an employee mindset? Do freelancers have as much right to work as employees? Becoming an owner of your freelance business is how to overcome objections and misclassification.
