It’s the way that content creators are paid for freelance work is stone-age-level bullshit. It’s nonsense. It shouldn’t be done this way.” “People don’t get around to upgrading their tools elsewhere, and there’s these really intense inefficiencies that fester in their businesses.” “OutVoice uses automation, CMS integration, and a more purpose-built invoicing solution.” “If you have better tools, you’re going to like your co-workers a little bit more. You’re going to like your job a little bit more.”
