Focus on the Freelance Folder Forums

Posted November 25, 2010 in Forum Talk

Today is a holiday in the United States, which means that a lot of our Freelance Folder staff won’t be working today. If you’re in the U.S., we wish you a Happy Thanksgiving.

However, Freelance Folder is still open for business. In particular, our popular Freelance Folder forums provide a great opportunity for freelancers to network and help each other. The forums are moderated by veteran freelancer, Behzad Jamshidi, who is the creative director and owner at DesignFacet.

New Forums: The FreelanceFolder Marketplace

Posted June 7, 2010 in Forum Talk, News

It’s only been a few weeks since we re-opened the FreelanceFolder forums and already things are quite busy! In response to some of the demand we’ve received in the forums, we’re introducing a new category with two new forums: called The Marketplace!

Inside the FreelanceFolder marketplace forums you’ll be able to promote your own services in the “Services Offered” area, as well as post job openings and hire freelancers in the “Looking to Hire” area. Everything is quite new and shiny at this point, so please feel free to jump in and start promoting your services or posting jobs.

As always, if you have any questions or feedback, don’t hesitate to ask!

Forum Talk: Copyrights, Late Fees, and Legal Issues

Posted February 27, 2009 in Business, Forum Talk

In the few months that we’ve had the forums here at FreelanceFolder there has been quite a lot of interest and a good amount of discussion. After reading through a number of really interesting forum threads, I thought it might be nice to highlight some of the more useful ones here on the blog for everyone to see.

For this issue of Forum Talk, I want to direct you to a particularly relevant discussion about Copyrights, late fees, and legal issues that was posted in the Finance and Legal forum.

The topic was posted by hrjansen, one of our forum’s most active users. He opened the thread with:

Something that I’m guessing we all wonder about at various times, are things like the subject explains so eloquently: Legal Issues. Specifically, that of copyrights and the like.
 
The one issue that I’d like to bring up, is do any of you charge a late fee for invoices that are past their due date?
 
I’m wondering if you do charge it, and if you do, how/what do you charge[...]

Several people quickly responded to the question, with some people charging nothing and others charging huge amounts for late payments. The discussion also delved a bit further into copyrights and some other related issues.
