Freelance Contracts 101: Here’s Why It’s a Bad Idea to Write Without a Contract
Update: 2025-04-01
Description
Do you really need a contract as a freelancer? The answer is a resounding yes, and in this episode, Strawberry is back to explain why. We explore why contracts aren’t about distrust — they’re about clarity, preventing miscommunication, and setting the foundation for a smooth working relationship. Strawberry shares real-world examples of contract red flags, from sneaky non-competes to payment terms that could leave you hanging for months. We also discuss what happens if you get sued (spoiler: don’t panic, but don’t ignore it either) and how to push back on unfair contract terms. If contracts make you want to lie down and ignore them, this episode will give you the confidence to navigate them like a pro.
