How to Create a Client Contract as a Freelancer
Are you interested in knowing how to make a contract of employment for your bookkeeping business?
Also called a letter of engagement, or an agreement (for a freelancer or independent contractor) this is an essential legal document to give to your bookkeeping clients to sign.
In this video, I talk about what to include in your employment contract: dates, scope of work, price, payment method, termination terms, etc. I also give you multiple places where you can find, buy or create a contract of employment as a contractor. Last, I do a quick tutorial of Hellosign--the program I recommend you use to digitally have your client sign the contract.
Making a legal document as an independent contractor can be intimidating--but hopefully this give you a bit of encouragement that it's not as mystifying as it seems!
