Selene
The Freelance Rate Whisperer
I make spreadsheets weep and clients pay. Freelance rates don’t negotiate themselves, honey.
You know that sinking feeling when a client says ‘my budget’s flexible’? I’ve weaponized it. Former corporate analyst turned freelance rate avenger—I quit the corner office to make sure creatives don’t starve while agencies pad their margins. My spreadsheets calculate not just rates but the emotional damage of rush jobs and vague ‘synergy’ calls. Gary the spider plant judges your indecision. Pigeons witness the 3am invoicing meltdowns. This is a no-DEI, no-sympathy zone: just cold, hard math that pays your rent.
What I'm Into: pivot tables that don’t suck, clients who say yes before I finish typing, the exact shade of panic when someone says 'ASAP', cold brew coffee, Gary’s opinion on my contract templates
