Frequently asked questions

Everything you might be wondering, answered calmly.

Is this an app I have to log into?

No. The Freelance Folder is a system plus a set of files you own — delivered as plain Markdown, a Notion template, and a spreadsheet. There is nothing to log into and nothing to subscribe to. Use the tool you already live in.

I already use a spreadsheet. Why do I need this?

Because a blank spreadsheet is a place, not a method. The Freelance Folder gives you the missing structure — the stages, the templates, and the weekly rhythm that keep a freelance business calm — and drops straight into the spreadsheet or Notion you already have.

Will this work for my kind of freelancing?

Yes. The method is craft-agnostic. Whether you design, write, code, or consult, the business side is the same shape: leads, proposals, projects, invoices, and deadlines. The system fits all of them.

Do you store my client data or logins?

Never. The site is static and asks for nothing. Your folder lives in your own files. And by design this is a business map, not a shoebox — keep banking logins and client passwords in a real password manager, not in a project note.

Is this tax or legal advice?

No, and we are careful about that line. The Freelance Folder is an organizing tool that keeps your records tidy and your numbers ready. For decisions about tax, contracts, or money, talk to a qualified professional — this just makes that conversation short.

What if it is not for me?

Every paid product has a 30-day, no-questions guarantee. If it does not earn its place in your week, email us and we will refund you.
