Good news for all my freelance friends: Linkedin launched their freelance Marketplace Platform.

Linkedin developed a new freelance platform better than all freelance websites for their own 800 million + users that find freelance work. This is because more people found themselves working remotely due to the COVID-19. LinkedIn has decided to launch a service that will help freelancers to connect with matched clients and skillsets.

Why Linkedin Freelance Marketplace Platform is better than others 

LinkedIn has been standing up their freelancer game as of late. The number of freelancers on LinkedIn has grown by 70% in the past 5 years, and some of the platform’s recent changes have rendered it much more freelance-friendly. Take a look below to see how you can use LinkedIn to help your freelance business.

What are the benefits of the LinkedIn marketplace? 

Linkedin Freelance Marketplace Platform is more of a facilitator than a regular job platform – once you make a connection with the client via LinkedIn inbox, you’ll be able to exchange contact email, phone numbers, or whatever else you need to make arrangements about the project.

As previously mentioned, freelance work has been increasing in popularity, even before the start of the pandemic. Using this service, freelancers can pay to promote their skills in the LinkedIn marketplace. Boosting their engagement and allowing more potential employers to see their work. 

In addition, the process of hiring freelancers will be streamlined from the employers’ point of view too. They can locate, research, and connect with a freelancer easily, and even secure a deal and make payments through the service. 

The use of a digital wallet on the platform supports LinkedIn’s plans to incentivize content creators. In order to boost the quality of content posted on the site. The company continues to work on improving the platform and expanding its utility, moves that are set to benefit users if LinkedIn gets them right. 

Looking at Marketplaces are a number of benefits to both employers and freelancers. Not only will it improve the overall hiring process for both parties it is also expected to increase the number of opportunities for both parties too. 

As we are all aware, the pandemic has shifted workers’ mindsets. Many people have discovered that they are more comfortable out of the office environment, working remotely and flexibly. Services such as Marketplaces will allow businesses to employ freelancers without being restricted by location. 

This will benefit both the employer and the freelancer. Employers will have a larger pool of talent to choose from and freelancers will not have to worry about relocating or commuting for a specific job. This could increase the number of businesses that consider freelance work rather than a permanent hire.
