seems like a portfolio link and/or email address would be helpful.
I also don't like the phone-only thing. It's 3am right now, I don't plan on calling "Timothy" just to ask to see his portfolio, but I'd certainly like to look at it right now. Am I going to come back to the site tomorrow during the day? Maybe, but probably not. Would I email him right now to get a link to his portfolio? Sure.
- zaidf 16y agoFair points - thanks! - Will add portfolio link. - Not so sure about email quite yet.
- xel02 16y agoRegarding the time difference you might think of offering freelancers the option to highlight when they ARE available for calls by setting up a) Calling times b) Their current desire for calls. I.e Bob might be looking for a job and is willing to accept calls between 12pm and 1pm, but not at 3am. Or Jane may already have enough leads and does not want to accept any calls (too busy) but normally is available between 3pm and 4pm.
- zaidf 16y agoThat's definitely the plan! We'll let people set their hours. If you call off hours, it'll tell you to call later. And we'll also provide an option to "delist" yourself temporarily while you are too busy and don't want more work. Thanks for the suggestions!
