In this episode of the Pitching PR podcast, I chat with Dave Cosgrave from Freshbooks about an income study they did of self-employed workers. It identified a 28% wage gap between male and female freelancers - but it’s not all doom-and-gloom, Dave also shares how this breaks down for those working in Marketing Communications and the results were surprising. We also discuss what motivates men and women to seek self-employment, are they likely to stay self-employed and Dave even shares some Freshbook data, exclusive to this podcast about the billable rates of men and women working in PR.
