<\/i><\/i><\/span>What is a freelancer?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

One self employed<\/a> entrepreneur is defined as a person who runs his own business and is therefore self-sufficient. In contrast to e.g. salaried employees, a self-employed person does not work for an employer and therefore usually has greater flexibility and self-determination as well as several other advantages, which we will get into in more detail in this article.<\/span><\/p>\n

One self employed<\/a> freelancer is most often described as an independent trader who solves both large and small tasks for other companies. This is most often B2B, and you are therefore not employed as self employed<\/a> freelancer, but are instead hired on various tasks at companies, where companies buy the freelancer's services.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
