Reference

Freelancing terms and basics

A short reference for new freelancers covering common terms, proposals, and the basic questions that come before your first paid project.

Invoicing

An invoice states the work delivered, the agreed amount, and the payment terms. Send it promptly once a milestone is complete.

Project delivery

Delivery means meeting the scope written in your proposal. Confirm what is included before you start to avoid unplanned work.

Realistic timelines

Estimate time from the actual tasks, then add room for revisions. Early projects usually take longer than expected.
