About FreelanceHQ
FreelanceHQ brings the business side of freelancing into one workspace instead of spreadsheets, notes and scattered tools. A client record holds relationship status, notes, payments and next actions, and leads and proposals are tracked so warm prospects are not forgotten. Projects carry their scope, delivery status, tracked hours and margin on the client's own record.
Invoice and cash flow views show what has been sent, what is overdue and what is getting paid, and a follow-up view shows who needs a nudge today, whether a lead, a client or a late payment. A business snapshot summarizes projected income, outstanding invoices and clients needing follow-up. The site positions it as more structured than notes and more focused than a generic CRM. The workflow runs from capturing an inquiry to scoping, delivering and invoicing. Pricing and plans are on a separate page.
