Title: Contracts that Protect

Hey there,

Before you seek out potential candidates to fulfill

the gaps in your business, you need to make sure you
have all your ducks in a row - starting with contracts.

Contracts, such as NDA (non-disclosure agreements) ensure

that your information, ideas or discussions are kept private
and that freelancers aren't able to discuss or share any
part of your project with other potential partners or
employers.

This is not only important when it comes to hiring authors

and writers to develop content where you wouldn't want them
to share that work as samples for future positions, but it's
also important regardless of the type of freelancer you hire.

You want to make sure that all your ideas and creative output
is protected and that whatever you discuss with freelancers
remains confidential.

Many people make the mistake of thinking that NDA's are only
assigned once you have hired a freelancer when in reality,
you can easily require a potential freelancer to sign an NDA
before you even begin discussing the project or the possibility
of them joining your team.

Here are a few resources I recommend if you're looking for

pre-made contracts and NDA's that you can customize to suit
your needs:

of properly managing a team.

P.S: Keep in mind that these are templates designed to give you
an outline but aren't necessarily entirely applicable to your
business. You should eliminate clauses that don’t apply to you
or add new clauses as necessary before you ask anyone to
sign them.
