Hansson (Remote: Office Not Required).

The Freelance Way is THE business book for independent professionals. It presents the best available and fully up-to-date freelance know-how, compiled from hundreds of quality sources, including surveys, the latest market data, advice from world-class experts, as well as real-life experiences and stories from hundreds of professionals in different fields and countries, which makes the book highly relevant to freelancers worldwide.

On the publication of the Indian edition, Robert Vlach, says, “India’s digital economy is surging and the prospects of its knowledge workers along with it. Hence, I envision a future where Indian freelancers will work directly with clients from all over the world and keep all the profits. They know the language and have marketable skills; the only missing piece is the proven know-how for developing a truly independent freelance business.”

Sachin Sharma, Executive Editor, HarperCollins India, says: “The Freelance Way is the definitive book when professionals decide to go solo. In the post pandemic world, we have seen how people have embraced an independent, non-nine-to-five culture and explored a wonderful life outside of their regular jobs. For freelancers, this is the most interesting phase in history. Robert has written a phenomenal book that will serve as a lighthouse to the freelancing community.”
