Okay folks. People are interested in this idea – it has legs and I want to make it happen. If you're a digital professional and interested in being part of such a freelancer collective, send me a message. Nothing set in stone yet, but I've got concepts of a plan and would like to establish this.

Perhaps a freelancer collective is needed? A distributed agency. Different people with different specialisations sharing resources and referring work to each other based on their capabilities. Every freelancer I know is reporting difficulty finding work, and they're long established in the industry.

Great initiative, definitely would like to be part of this.

You already know.

I think this is a great idea. The referral angle for getting people matchmade with the right craftspeople is particularly appealing.

@christian.bsky.social has been cooking up something similar in coordination with @goldavelez.org and others.

thanks @erlend.sh ! hey @vale.rocks ! so what my/our approach is (not sure if @christian.bsky.social is also up to other things) is Earned Governance, so startups/efforts can easily share work-weighted decision making

and the learnings will be in a 15 min slot in Ownership Economy summit Oct 1 in Manhatten, i love that group - www.ownershipeconomy.com can also be done tokenized with fairmint but this is more lightweight for short term experiments in case they take off, and if not whoever keeps working on them

ownershipeconomy.comThe Ownership EconomyThe Ownership Economy is a new economic model that seeks to empower individuals by giving them greater control over their assets and data.
