The data from 2022’s Business Trends Index reflects Australian business owners’ resilience and positive outlook for the coming year, says Hila Klein, COO of Fiverr.
“It’s great to see that businesses are investing in digital and marketing roles that are fundamental to growth. Australian businesses continue to navigate unpredictable times from both a labour shortage and economic outlook, and we’re incredibly proud that Fiverr’s dynamic talent cloud solution has played a role in helping them access the skills they need to grow.”
With more businesses looking to fill resourcing gaps quickly, demand for freelancers has been at an all time high. Freelance marketing strategists now have the ability to earn up to $2,300 per job, with other digital roles following suit reporting similar earning ranges. With these roles being in such high demand, it’s an optimal time for Australians to leverage their digital skills online and consider freelancing.
