Improving Your Pitch

The traditional approach to freelancer engagement, whether freelancer or agent, has been based on a simple single event process. If you are a freelancer you send out your CV to one or more agencies or jobsites, if you are an agency you try to match incoming CVs against your database. In today's dynamic environment this practice is now outdated.

To market your services or your company, you need to have a sales pitch; more importantly you need to be confident that what you offer is quickly in front of those who are on the other side of the 'virtual handshake'.

Embracing 21st century technology, IFA can now deliver to you state-of-the-art integrated freelancer bespoke technology that provides you with multlple event processes designed to optimise utilisation and maximise profitability.

  1. As freelancers, agents or end user clients you are already players in the currently unstructured freelancer community. IFA provides you, through its unique Job Diamond™ Technology, your personal Marketing, Search and Business Development Console giving you both the structure and doorways to a wider world market. Freelancers and agents/end user clients have nine pre-defined facets of common interest that greatly increases compatibility 'hits' between buyers and sellers. There is nothing like this anywhere, the levels of efficiency are without parallel. This is fully defined in the Job Diamond Section.
  2. Keeping a tidy office promotes greater efficiency and eLot, your online auction, enables you to quickly advertise and dispose of unwanted equipment (i.e. phones, PCs etc).
  3. Bulk purchasing power comes with size, IFA’s eShop delivers this power to your finger tips focusing on key requirements such as discounts on insurances, financial products, banking, accountants, accommodation and much more.
  4. Ensuring that all stakeholders are heard is essential and eVoice delivers the vehicle by which it will be transmitted.
  5. Being informed is essential in any business and our Business Support Fact Sheets and 24/7 Freelancer eNews keeps you up-to-date.
  6. Networking is an essential part of business life. As a freelancer (or indeed agent) expanding your network of colleagues and friends will assist in opening up new opportunities; as companies we already recognise the value of this, especially in new and emerging markets. eNetworking is a value adding tool.
  7. One of our aims is to increase the levels of communications within and between the disparate pre-defined groupings that inhabit our space. Don't speak, create a vacuum. Create a vacuum and we create mistrust and misinterpretation. Some years ago a large corporate had the tagline 'we should be talking to each other' and so should we, this is why we have included the IFA Freelancer and Corporate eForums.
  8. Wealth Management Maximisation is one of the primary drivers for all freelancers; it is part of your entrepreneurial spirit. Not only do we inform you of the key products that are available and by what time in your life planning cycle these should have been considered but we also advise how to buy products with confidence and not be sold ones you don't need or understand.
  9. IFA in conjunction with Government Departments, Industry Pressure Groups and other associations will ensure your concerns are clearly articulated, fully understood and duly considered.
  10. We believe that if you follow the advice we give you throughout this website with candour and conviction, with the avowed intention of being compliant and planning for your future, you will arrive at your destination better prepared and protected. For those whose journeys have already begun and who have need of some insurance cover, IFA have in conjunction with major underwriters, designed insurance bundles be-spoke for Freelancers at prices only previously dreamed of.
