The Crisis Facing Freelance Enablers

[tradelikepro]

A survey of freelance enablers shows:

Nearly 20% are considering leaving the sector

Around half are supplementing income elsewhere

Confidence in surviving as freelancers averages just 6/10

Challenges include late payments, vague contracts, scope creep, and ‘ghosting’.
Peer networks, diversification, and resilience are keeping the sector afloat — but systemic support is urgently needed.
