Should You Ever Work For Free In Business? Our Honest Take

In entrepreneurship an age-old question is always ‘should I work for free?’ 

Working for free can open up partnerships and opportunities that would never happen if you were not willing to make the first move. 

But what is too much? When might you be better off sticking to paid opportunities?

In this episode of Community, Kristina and Maria are walking you through how to determine when it might be a good time to do some work for free and how to never feel resentful when offering something for free.

Tune in to hear:

• How free work can be an opportunity when done right.
• Our favourite way to test and refine your new offers with real feedback.
• When visibility is worth it (and when it’s not).
• Setting boundaries, contracts, and expectations are ‘free work’.
• How to avoid burnout from over-giving.
• What to ask for in return for your free work (think: testimonials, referrals, content)

Working for free doesn’t mean undervaluing your time. Set expectations and ensure it is an equal energy exchange.

Feeling unsure about a free offer? Listen to this episode before you say yes or no. It might just change your perspective!
