18. Rate Transparency Database

Author: Freelancing Females March 27, 2023 Duration: 16:37

In today’s episode, Tia (Founder of Freelancing Females) and LA Marks (Director of Collaboration) chat live about the importance of pay transparency in the freelance space and the new Freelancing Females Rate Transparency Database.

In the past 4 years, the landscape of freelancing has changed dramatically, so we’re updating our rate database to match. We’re wiping the slate clean and starting over to compile an entirely new rate database you can trust as a resource.

Freelancer pay should reflect changes such as the great resignation, a move to remote working, and inflation, but it's challenging to raise your rates without hard data to back you up.

Other changes include expanding our data to include all genders so those of any identity can accurately compare their rates and partnering with like minded organizations to amplify our reach. This is more inclusive to non-female identifying colleagues, and will strengthen our effort to close the 28% gap between male and female pay.

There’s a particular kind of conversation that happens between friends who truly get it-the kind over coffee where real talk replaces small talk, and you leave feeling clearer and more capable. That’s the space For the Love of Freelance aims to create. Hosted by Freelancing Females founder Tia Grado alongside Anna Daugherty, this podcast feels like pulling up a chair with trusted peers who’ve been there. Rather than offering abstract theory, each episode focuses on the tangible details of building a life and career on your own terms. You’ll hear from a variety of guests who share their honest stories, from navigating client negotiations and setting boundaries to managing creative energy and financial planning. The discussions are grounded in actionable ideas designed to make an immediate difference in your workweek. It’s about the mechanics of sustainable freelance living, but also the mindset needed to thrive in it. Tune in for a blend of practical strategy and genuine encouragement, a regular dose of camaraderie that treats freelancing not just as a job, but as a craft to be honed and enjoyed. This is the supportive community conversation, packaged into a podcast, for anyone who wants their independent path to feel less lonely and more inspired.
