6 Tools That Will Improve Your Freelancing

Tools every freelancer needs to improve their revenue

Freelancing is on the rise. We are looking for more flexibility and control in our work, and freelancing offers that. COVID gave us a lot of lessons, and for many of us, it was that traditional work might not be the greatest fit for what we want in our lives. However, with freelancing comes challenges, you have the flexibility, but you're greeted with less security. You have the ability to pick your own hours, but it can often lead to you working more than planned. Freelancing requires a lot of work, but the rewards can be huge.

Let's walk through some ways you can simplify your freelancing processes to make freelancing easier for you.

Use Bit.Ai to improve your organization

Bit.ai has been built for teams and individuals to create, collaborate, and organize all knowledge in one place from anywhere in the world. It's perfect for freelancers to collaborate, especially if you don't have the opportunity to be in person with your clients. You can create fast dynamic notes, documents, wikis, knowledge bases, projects, client deliverables, technical docs, training guides and client portals, while integrating across the apps you work with all in one place.

Get creative with Canva

Your documents, presentations and invoices don't need to be boring. Add a bit of spice by using Canva templates- or create your own. Canva is easy to use and is a great alternative for someone without a design background. Canva can be used by anyone in any profession, whether you're in marketing and need social media posts or you're a CEO preparing a high-level presentation to board members.

Track your time with Toggl Track

It can be difficult to say with accuracy to your clients how much time you spent on a project. Using Toggl, you can accurately track your time and work in this tool. If you're someone who often gets distracted, Toggl can be used as a productivity tool to help your focus. Being a freelancer, it can be hard to find motivation day in and day out, especially if you aren't working as part of a team. Toggl can be used on your desktop or as an app on your phone.

Improve your grammar with Grammarly

Even the best writers make grammatical errors occasionally. Grammarly is a cloud-based typing assistant that reviews spelling, grammar, punctuation, clarity, engagement, and delivery mistakes. It uses artificial intelligence to identify and search for an appropriate replacement for the error it locates. If you're a freelancer, you likely don't have a colleague to cross-check your emails or final drafts. Let Grammarly assist.

Use Calendly to end the back-and-forth meeting suggestions

If you're managing multiple clients, it can be difficult to schedule meeting times that suit you and your clients. You send your client a unique booking link, they choose a time that best suits them, and your meeting is locked in. No more back and forth, no more wasting time coordinating.
