January 15, 2013

Working as a freelancer money can often be tight, the cyclical nature of work meaning that it pays to be frugal, ensuring that every penny is made to count. That said, making your money stretch further can be tough, the cost of living perpetually rising and value hard to find in a global economy that’s pretty unforgiving. Thankfully, there’s still some value to be had out there though, the app market in particular offering an abundance of gems that offer staggering value for money, particularly in face of charging equivalents. Amongst these app gems you’ll find a wealth that’ll not only cut costs but that can also work to make freelancing a little easier. So, if you’re a freelancer that’s a little cash-strapped and looking to make your life a little easier, here’s five free apps for freelancers that might be worthwhile taking a look at…

Furthermore, you can even pay your bills using the app and set up real-time alerts and reminders about any bills forthcoming.

Google Drive

Google Drive is an app that every 21st century freelancer should have in their armory.

Essentially it’ll spare you from being enslaved to your desktop and perhaps save you a bit of cash.

All that time spent on the phone can mean a hefty phone bill, meaning that you’re going to want the best deal possible. This is where Skype comes to the fore. Using the app, you can make voice and video calls with other Skype users for free, drastically reducing costs on the phone call front. Not only nationwide, but worldwide, too.
