2. (Optional) Building you a free Connect tool
We build you a freelancer management system where you can store all of your key freelancer information in one place. Easily build, organize and manage any size freelancer network using the free Connect tool.
3. Getting you better connected
We utilise a range of executive search methodologies and A.I tools to run a search of the freelancer marketplace to find the best talent to tackle your specific business objectives.
4. Custom Vetting
Every freelancer is put through a vetting process we've designed with your help. This bespoke vetting process lets us build better client-freelancer connections.
5. Access freelancers anytime
You can now access these freelance and fractional experts anytime - this could be weeks or months before project kick off (at scoping phase), or they can be integrated closer to the project kick off date.
Building a Connect tool and getting connected with top freelancers is completely free.
If you do hire a Connect freelancer - our fees are exactly the same as the Rapid Hiring Service.
Why Build A Connect Black Book?
Plan Ahead
Get connected with freelance experts well before periods of rapid growth (i.e fundraising) so you have the right talent ready and waiting.
Plug Internal Gaps

Manage Capacity
If you work with the same type of freelancer regularly - access these individuals early and avoid hefty agency + platform fees.

What Our Clients Say:
The freelancers we ended up working with have been some of the best company hires we have made. We have been working closely with them for over six months now, and the quality of their work has been nothing short of phenomenal. Not only have they helped us build our tutor bot effectively, but they have also provided invaluable advice on enhancing our product. Thanks to Irfan and Connect's support, we have found a tech team that has been integral to our project's success and has pushed our company's capabilities to new heights."
