Robert and I discuss how to hire and manage freelancers. We also discuss how having children forces you to change the way you work.

Robert's 4 tips for a healthy freelancer relationship:

  1. Meet in person from time to time, if possible
  2. Pay at the higher end of their expected rate
  3. Remember the Golden Rule: Treat them they way you expect to be treated
  4. Let them know the positive results of their work
