Safrea launches 2018 freelancer rates survey

The 2017/2018 SA Freelance Media Industry and Rates Survey is live! This is a critical tool to gather relevant information on the sector and most importantly, to assess current rates trends which we believe will help set the financial parameters for freelancing businesses.

Issued by Safrea

23 Feb 2018

We estimate that the survey will take around 15 minutes to complete. When you have some quiet time, grab your favourite beverage and please go to http://bit.ly/2C24Nwe.

Your input and time is greatly appreciated.

All comments are welcome at az.oc.aerfas@yevrus.
