I think that you are saying you need a salesperson, someone who sells your services to potential clients. That is not the same as a recruiter. A recruiter is paid by a company to find people to hire, whereas you pay a salesperson to find people to pay you.
- barefootcoder 10y agoThat's an interesting way to put it.
- mswen 10y agoIt partly depends on scale. At the individual freelancer level it is hard to think about or justify paying a salesperson to sell your services. It often becomes clear when you have grown your freelance business into a small consultancy with 4 or 5 consultants that you need to keep busy. Now it becomes clear that what you need is a salesperson whom you pay and whose expertise and interests are aligned with yours. Another thing to consider is mutual commission arrangements with consultants whose skills and services are complementary to your own. I have this arrangement with a friend 10% commission on referred projects. It hasn't been a great steady source but a project here and there comes my way.
