Good evening Freelancers, Hiring Managers and Mentor Community,

I hope this message finds you thriving and inspired. As we continue to grow, I want to extend a warm welcome to our new members and express my heartfelt gratitude to our longstanding supporters. Your presence and participation are the backbone of Black Freelancer.

To both our new and seasoned members, here are three impactful ways you can engage with our platform today:

1. Create Your Compelling Profile: Your profile is your professional showcase. Start by signing up and crafting an engaging “About Me” section. Remember, a professional profile photo and a minimum of three showcased projects in your portfolio are key. Also, choose a professional username carefully – this becomes your unique vanity URL (like mine: blackfreelancer.com/sterling). Your profile is not just a resume; it’s a narrative of your professional journey.

2. Engage in Our Community: Visit community.blackfreelancer.com and dive into our vibrant Community Feed. This feature is designed for our extensive network of over 5,000 freelancers and hiring managers. It’s a space to meet, support, and share exciting projects. Your voice and insights are invaluable here – let’s make connections that matter.

3. Showcase Your Profile on Social Media: Treat your Black Freelancer profile as your new professional calling card. Add a link to your profile on your Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn bios. It’s a powerful way to network and highlight your expertise in broader circles.

I invite you to actively participate by chiming in the comment section or shooting me a direct message. Simply click “Message Me” on my profile blackfreelancer.com/sterling to share your thoughts, feedback, or suggestions. Your insights are crucial for our collective growth and will help us tailor the platform to better suit your needs.

Thank you for being an integral part of this journey. Together, we’re not just building profiles; we’re shaping the future of work and creating a community that champions excellence and diversity.

Warm regards,

Sterling

Founder, Freelancer Hub
