As a freelancer, this also just doesn’t fit with my personal experience. When a client wants an NDA, they send one. I rarely/never care. I’ll check over the language, but they don’t want to use my NDA in general.
Invoicing, time tracking is done through my accounting system.
Scheduling meeting is pretty easy.
Setting up a personal website is pretty easy, and if you’re a Webdev you probably already have one. In my experience most work comes through personal contacts anyway.
So, it was hard for me to see how this would be useful. Maybe I’m not the audience. Posting a survey might get you more statistics on what’s wrong with the site.
- praulv 9y agoExactly as my sentiment below. I would try targeting this to non-tech freelancers e.g. healthcare professionals, writers, environmental/civil engineers.
- cod3boy 9y agoThis could be the case somewhere, I am yet to do the complete validation, but we had over 150 people subscribe to upcoming and 400/600 people click signup. So I was assuming the problem was somewhere in the onboarding. https://www.producthunt.com/upcoming/sieve-pro https://www.producthunt.com/upcoming/sieve-pro
- herbst 9y agoDon't get me wrong but these numbers are not really a lot either. Especially as Product Hunt is not exactly the best traffic for buying customers they love to click and test free stuff assuming the process is fast and painless (which according to this thread it isn't)
- JumpCrisscross 9y ago> When a client wants an NDA, they send one Flip side: if I’m hiring, I want to use my NDA.
- ci5er 9y ago? Is that not the same side?
- JumpCrisscross 9y agoOP said “as a freelancer, my clients like to use their own NDA.” I’m saying “as a client, you are correct, I prefer to use my own NDA.”
- ci5er 9y agoI read OP as the inverse of how you read it (I think). But, regardless, good! Before coffee (AM, where I am), I like to keep all my noun-verb-object clusters straight. Happy Sunday!
- icedchai 9y agoSame here. I freelance part time. All NDAs have been from clients. Meetings are rare, mostly everything is in emails. For invoices, I use Quickbooks.
- mrhappyunhappy 9y agoSame here. I kick off call scheduling via calendly. Send PDF proposal and bill via freshbooks. All done within minutes with a few days of client delay - fairly typical. Never an NDA unless they want one. Absolutely no need for this service.
