Indian Freelance Market & Indian Gig Economy

The gig economy is on the rise today, and India is a prime market. It has the second largest independent workforce in the world at 15 million and fills about 40% of the global freelance jobs.

A recent PayPal survey has revealed that a whopping 23% of Indian freelancers earn around 60 lakhs every year, and the Indian freelancers market is projected to hit the $20–30 billion by 2025. However, despite the huge potential and growth, the “remote work” model is largely disorganized in the country.

A large number of freelancers in India still struggle to find appropriate and high-paying gigs. Similarly, entrepreneurs and small business owners don’t know where they can find the right freelancers to help with their projects. In other words- there is a big communication gap. This is where Workbeans come in.

Workbeans is a well-structured and comprehensive platform where freelancers and business-owners come and do business. It’s a quintessential example of a “win-win” arrangement.

Workbeans allows the freelancers to:

· Create a profile to showcase their talents and skills in a global market.

· Submit proposals for the projects they are interested in.

· Communicate and negotiate the assignments and compensation with ease and convenience.

· Enjoy flexible working hours and working conditions.

Similarly, the platform allows the business owners to:

· Create job postings for as many projects as they want- all for free.

· Get access to hundreds of top talents in the country under one roof.

· Track payments easily through the payment dashboard.

Workbeans has been highly successful in giving a big push to the freelance industry in India by bringing some structure and organization in the same.

The freelancers are now able to bag projects that they are interested and that pay well. On the other hand, business owners are able to find the skilled individuals they need irrespective of their location.

Most importunately, both parties can communicate and do business in the comfort of knowing they are associated with a platform they can trust with their privacy and money. In fact, it won’t be an exaggeration to say that Workbeans has emerged as a game-changer in such a booming industry that gig economy is.
