The Future of Freelancing 2024

The future of Freelancing 2024

Freelancing in a Rapidly Evolving Digital Age

Freelancing is not a new phenomenon, but it is rapidly evolving in the digital age. More and more people are choosing to work independently, on their own terms, and with greater flexibility and autonomy.

According to a recent report by Upwork, the number of freelancers in the US increased by 8.1% in 2020, reaching 59 million, or 36% of the workforce. The report also predicts that by 2025, more than half of the US workforce will have done some form of freelancing.

But what does the future of freelancing look like in 2024?

How will the trends and challenges that shape the freelance economy affect the opportunities and risks for freelancers?

And how can freelancers prepare themselves for the changes ahead?

Key Trends Will Impact the Future of Freelancing

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

One of the key trends that will impact the future of freelancing is the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation. AI and automation are transforming various industries and sectors, creating new demands for skills and competencies, as well as displacing some jobs and tasks. For freelancers, this means that they will need to constantly update their skills and knowledge, adapt to changing client expectations and requirements, and leverage technology to enhance their productivity and efficiency.

Networking Remains Key – But How you will Network has Changed

Another trend that will influence the future of freelancing is the growing importance of online platforms and communities. Online platforms and communities are essential for freelancers to find work, network, collaborate, learn, and access resources and support. They also enable freelancers to showcase their portfolios, build their reputation, and attract new clients.

However, not all platforms and communities are created equal. Some may offer low-quality or exploitative work opportunities, charge high fees or commissions, or have unfair or unclear policies and terms.

This is where AMBSDR comes in. AMBSDR is a platform and community for content writers and bloggers who want to write for organic searches online. AMBSDR stands for Ambassadors of Search Engine Optimization (SEO), which is the practice of optimizing web content to rank higher on search engines like Google or Bing. SEO is a vital skill for content writers and bloggers who want to reach a larger audience, generate more traffic, and increase their income.

But what is SEO?

SEO is the process of improving the quality and quantity of web traffic to a website or a web page from search engines. SEO involves various aspects, such as keyword research, content creation, technical optimization, link building, user experience, analytics, and more. SEO helps websites and web pages to appear more relevant and authoritative to search engines, which in turn helps them to rank higher on search engine results pages (SERPs). A higher ranking on SERPs means more visibility, clicks, leads, conversions, and revenue for websites and web pages.

What is organic SEO?

Organic SEO refers to the natural or unpaid way of ranking on SERPs. Organic SEO does not involve paying for ads or sponsored listings that appear on top or beside the organic results. Organic SEO relies on creating high-quality content that matches the search intent of the users and follows the best practices of SEO. Organic SEO can take longer to achieve results than paid SEO, but it can also provide more lasting benefits in terms of credibility, trustworthiness, and loyalty.

Re-Inventing Myself

As I sit here on this Thanksgiving Weekend in Canada, I feel the warm breeze and watch the leaves falling gently from the trees. It reminds me of how frequently nature in Canada changes. Every season brings something new … a new quarter in the business world, a new school semester, a new sports season and with that an opportunity for new habits and lessons for us as individuals.

Reflect for a minute how your lifestyle and habits will change in this new season … autumn, or fall. Or whatever season you are entering as you read this article.

LISTEN … get outside and listen. What is your environment telling you? In a quiet moment of reflection what comes to you? What are you thankful for? What can you do to help someone else? What will you do to help yourself?

As I sit here today and go through this exact exercise a flock of Canada Geese fly overhead. It reminded me of last night at sunset, when a formation of geese approached me haphazardly over the lake, then as they abruptly turned toward me as I filmed them, they started to form their “V” formation … practising for their journey south this winter. Did you know geese lose their flight feathers over the summer. You will find them swimming around the lakes and walking around in parks and on shore but not flying. It’s the late summer and fall they shed their summer feathers and get their flight feathers back. And then they practise, and practise, and practise … to prepare for their long flights south with their new wings.

Let the seasons guide you into something new to practise, like the Canada Geese. Maybe you are ready to take on some new habits, or refocus your energy with existing habits? How will you renew yourself this season – personally, in health, with family, in wealth, in business or your career? Be like the Canada Goose and take on the new challenge of the season … and fly!

This autumn I will reinvent some existing books, personal and business success materials and rebrand them as part of my new Casual Millionaire® trademark in Canada.

My goal is to make this material readily available and affordable to all who are interesting in re-inventing themselves or at the very least re-tweaking a few things in their lives with the changing seasons.

My Casual Millionaire® program(s), books and tips are all original, not a white-labelled service of someone else. It’s not someone else’s material I’m selling, this is all me. All Deborah Clarke … all tests I’ve put myself through; all lessons I’ve learned first hand; and all material and tools I’ve used personally to get me through any obstacles, problems and major choices I’ve faced in my life so far. Are there other versions of these tools and materials out there? Of course, because after all, when it comes to achieving individual success we know success leaves clues. And, if you monitor habits, tools and attitudes of a wide range of successful people you will find, while we are all different, many of our habits, including mindset, will have similarities.
