San Francisco: Freelancers Meetup
Welcome to Freelancers Union SPARK!
We host meetups for freelancers by freelancers: we invite you to bring your expertise, questions, and elevator pitches to the table to workshop and discuss.
Join us on the first Wednesday of every month (and online via our FB group) to meet other entrepreneurs in the area, get inspired, and talk about stuff like...
August SPARK: Authentic Content Marketing
As freelancers, we know the internet should be a powerful tool for finding clients. But where do you even start, and how do you get it to work for you! This month, SPARK is all about content marketing strategies that connect you to clients while still fitting into your schedule. We'll cover:
Your online presence - streamlined and branded for instant storytelling
Validating yourself - proving your value to potential clients before they even ask
Social media marketing - how to make it work for your needs, on your time
Regardless of industry, we all share similar experiences as independent business owners! We try to ensure everyone leaves with insights and connections that will help their business thrive.
SPARK is built on the premise that we’re stronger together than we are on our own.
Check out the national conversation at #FreelanceSPARK or send a friend to one of our events across the country!
Quick tips:
Yes, this event is for freelancers of all industries. We're all connected by our efforts to succeed in the gig economy.
No, this event will not be taped- it's a meetup!
Sometimes we do bring in an expert speaker- we'll announce that above.
