Gyde is a platform for true professionals. Exclusive to highly experienced freelancers, studios, and agencies, Gyde was built to help entrepreneurial-minded professionals grow their brand and career.

Unlike traditional freelance marketplaces that rely on bidding systems and contract commissions, Gyde gives you the freedom to:

• Work with clients directly.  We don't govern or dictate your contracts in any way.
• Work with your clients as long as you like.
• Keep 100% of your earnings.

‍
Traditional platforms want to own the relationship, own the contracts, take a slice of your earnings, and penalize you if you work with a client outside of their pervue.

With Gyde you don't have to worry about any of that. Clients are yours, we want you to form long-lasting, profitable relationships.

Gyde serves as an always-on growth and business development resource for professional freelancers, studio and agency owners. With a Gyde membership, you're keeping your finger on a vast network of freelance/contract opportunities that are actively being offered on a daily basis.

Gyde looks for those who are truly experienced and take immense pride in the work they do. To become a Professional or Premium member, you must be an established professional in digital marketing and/or design.

‍

When reviewing a Professional or Premium member, we look at:

• Overall professional experience and years in the space.
• Body of work, strength of portfolio, and past client reviews
• Do you have an autonomous business presenece?
  
  • We prioritize those who operate as sole proprietors—Having your own freelance business, agency, or studio conducting business in a fully autonomous capacity.

‍

We're intentionally selective. Businesses coming to Gyde to find contract talent expect a high caliber of skill, experience, and execution. We don't just allow anyone to be featured on the platform, only those who are true professionals and entrepreneurs in their own right.

With a Gyde Professional or Premium membership, you will create a professional profile that showcases you, your brand, and the services you offer.

‍

Your Gyde profile will encapsulate:

• Who you are, the business you operate, and the services you provide
• Samples of work that you've done
• Links to your business website and any external portfolios you may have
• Current or past client reviews

‍

Your profile will be featured across the Gyde website and landing pages that coorespond with the specific services you offer. Individuals and brands looking for services on Gyde can discover you through your profile and reach out to you directly about potential engagements.

‍

Through Gyde's AI project-matching technology, your profile will show up in searches that align with your area of expertise.

‍

‍This increases your brand's overall exposure, and allows you to reap the benefits of our marketing spend and web traffic.

‍

‍

Premium Members receive priority placement on service pages and are included on strategic email and promotional campaigns that Gyde runs on a regular basis.

‍

As a Premium member, your profile will be sent directly to brands looking for the services you offer, drastically increasing your overall exposure to potential clients.

‍

Consider it like having your own sales team promoting you and your business.

Gyde Makes it as easy and frictionless as possible. Whether you apply to an opportunity, email a prospective client, submit an RFP proposal, or connect with someone who's reached out to you through your Gyde profile, you contract directly with all clients the same way you would as if you were referred by a friend or colleague.

‍

Gyde will never try to dictate the engagement in any way. You have complete control, freedom, and flexibility to conduct business in the way that works best for you and the nature of each specific project.

‍

We don't own the contracts, take a finders' fee, or take a commission off of your earnings. ‍

‍

The clients and relationships are yours., Gyde is simply the connection engine.

No—Gyde never takes a commission, finders' fee, or any percentage of your earnings.

‍

Gyde doesn't control or govern contracts in any way. You set your own pricing and terms, and keep 100% of all earnings that result from the lifetime of every engagment.

‍

This is what makes Gyde different from every other marketplace out there. Traditional platforms will typically cut out anywhere between 10%-30% of every invoice—a hefty price to pay when you are the one doing all of the work.

Immediately!

‍

As soon as you sign in you have full access to the dashboard of contract opportunities, email leads, and RFPs, and can start submitting for anything that catches your eye.

‍

We've had members land their first contract before their 10-day free trial had expired.
