195: What Documents Should I Have Handy to Save Myself Time When I Get Hired On?

By having documents ready to go, we make ourselves look stellar from the start of our freelancing journey.
Janine Kelbach

Nothing feels better than when your contract is signed and your client is ready to go forward with work! How can we make ourselves look stellar from the start? By having documents ready to go, the client can move faster with upcoming work. Today, I am going to give you 6 documents you should always have on hand as a freelancer. In this digital age on hand means in a folder on your computer, Google Drive and/or a CRM that holds files, I like HoneyBook.

Documents you always need on hand for clients:

Rates sheet
Proposals
Contract
Invoice Template
