When traveling the country over the last few years, we found that virtually every gig worker we met mentioned needing information on several topics: how to save for retirement without a matched 401(k), how to navigate the insurance world without an employer program, where to file their taxes, how and if they should incorporate, why there isn't a national collective bargaining union for gig workers, and a place where gig workers could review clients, combat fraud, and support one another. So we built it, along with the corresponding app available on the Apple and Play stores. That was a year ago when we started writing content, building the business plan, and garnering some grassroots support. Today, we are launching our first social media account on Facebook. Here, you can receive event invitations and recaps, get up-to-date news about the gig economy, unionizing, job prospect best practices and general errata. Welcome to our page! We're excited you're here. Please don't hesitate to reach out with content requests or ideas for tools you'd like developed to help you live your best gig life.
