Collective.work

Hello everyone, I’m Jean, co-founder of Collective.work. Really excited to officially launch the V1 of Collective.work on Product Hunt with you! Special deal during the next 24 hours: - Every company who leaves a project on collective.work will get a 100% discount on their service-fee. - Every collective who completes its onboarding will get a custom 1:1 session to increase its chances to find a mission in less than 15 days. The Collective story: Freelancing has been skyrocketing since 2010. Collaboration is the new trend! Most freelancers are teaming up to gather their skills and deliver larger projects with better conditions: those who’ve been trusted by web and digital agencies. In teams of 2 to 10+ people, freelancers can compete with agencies on projects requiring multiple skills. We call these teams collectives and estimate there are already 100k+ of collectives out there. What makes collectives special: - Collectives are experts: they gather the people agencies and companies would love to employ, but do not attract anymore (often with 10y+ of experience) - Collectives are result oriented: they choose their teammates and projects, which results in highly motivated teams working efficiently - Collectives are competitive: without any structure fee and in full transparency, collectives provide unbeatable value for the same price (or lower) than traditional agencies In less than 2 years, Collective.work has: - Built a marketplace on which companies looking for talent can access to almost a thousand collectives - Developed a collaborative and free back-office solving issues of working as a collective (commercial processes, contracting and complex invoicing flows) More than 2000 companies are already working with our collectives. Please try out our marketplace (for companies) or our tool (for collectives), and share your feedback below! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts about what we built and the trend of collectives!

Hey all, 👋 I'm a co-founder of Collective.work (product)- We are creating a new form of collaborative work: more flexible than anything that has been done before. In collectives, individuals can work on large and ambitious projects while staying independent The bandwidth of a solo-freelancer is limited. This implies that as a freelancer, you must find a very specific type of mission that you can do, and specialize on it. On the other end, collectives allow individuals to get the best of both worlds: - People can gather in teams to work on larger and ambitious projects - These people can stay freelancers and keep their flexibility Collectives attract the best talents Collectives are very attractive for talented people because they allow them to combine freedom and flexibility. Collective members choose: - The people they work with - The missions and clients they work with Collectives are horizontal and collaborative: individuals have the power to decide how they invest their time. People in collectives have a strong sense of belonging, resulting in high client-satisfaction As they choose their missions, the people they work with and access ambitious projects, people in collectives have a strong sense of belonging. They want to do meaningful work and to live up to expectations. Clients tell us they feel this engagement, which results in a higher client-satisfaction! Feel free to try and share your thoughts with us!

Congratulation again to the team for what you have built. It is very impressive in such a short time. Do you know why people will call on collectives more and more in the future? (Not only your app but collectives in general) It is not because it is more flexible and less expensive than other options but because it is where the best talents will be! I am convinced that Collective will be to world of work was Airbnb was for the world of hospitality.

What a fantastic idea! Having been a freelancer, and also been responsible for assembling many makeshift freelance teams - being able to work and collaborate seamlessly is essential (but in my experience, super difficult). With the amount of time I've wasted building 'Frankenstein teams' in the past, this would have been a game changer. I'm looking forward to being in a position again where I can give this a go!

Collective is the solution I was looking for to collaborate with freelances as a team !

I am using Collective for months now and following the journey from Day 1! Great platform, team & model, congrats 🔥

I've been following your adventure since day 1, and I'm super impressed with what you've achieved so far! There's clearly a need, both for freelancers and companies, and I think your model is a great solution for everyone. Keep up the good work ;)
