How our Open Call Works
Start getting connected directly to our paying clients by signing up AND POSTING your price/rate, work examples, and to link up your bank through Stripe so you can get paid directly when someone books you. This free platform is how we organize creatives locally, and make sure clients (who reach out to our collective directly for our curation) respect the rates and creatives get payment security with our stripe integration. Btw it was started by creatives since we need transparent gigs and more security when it comes to getting paid. No more exposure gigs hehe

We made this platform with the creative in mind first. We know there’s a lot of different ways we monetise what we do, so we designed things to be as flexible as possible for you. Make sure that you add pricing, because we are not about exposure, but truly about trying to get people paid. To do this, you HAVE to set a rate (this can always be changed but you have to start somewhere).
Create your Profile
Make sure you have a strong profile- this is how both customers and creatives will see you and judge if they want to work with you. Your listings and reviews will appear below your profile description.
Invest in Professional Photos and Media
It’s important to think of what a customer wants to see, its less about self promotion, they know why they are here. So make sure to get great photos that really show what you are offering and the experience of it all for the best chance of getting a gig.
Stuck? Start with what you would offer for 50 euros.
For example: what would you offer for 50 euros? We advise to have one affordable “best seller” in your listings. You can add more listings as well, but we recommend starting with this. We noticed that a set price of 50-150 euros for freelance services and workshops is most likely to get booked. For product listings, this isn’t as important. Photos also mater A LOT. Try to have them show what you are offering. Not a selfie please, you have your profile for that :)
Need Help?
We know it’s hard sometimes to know how to figure out the tech and business side of creation, so we offer free coaching sessions from our founders with experience at Patreon and the MoMA to help you out!
