This boils down to companies wanting to gain access to content that others create so they can make money off of it. Mind you, they don't pay anything to create the actual content. Australia went after Google & Meta & they now have to pay publishers. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…
My wife & I have been in unions our whole working lives. I was in UFCW while working thru college, then CFA as adjunct prof & wife was CWA. As a freelancer for 30+ years, I've had to learn to negotiate & "fight" for myself. There's no alternative. cnbc.com/2024/04/19/vw-…
It's tax day. Did you know freelancers pay a self-employment tax that staffers don't. Yup. If you are an employee of a company, the employer pays 1/2 of your SS & Medicare and you pay the other 1/2. But as a freelancer, you pay full amount. Consult CPA to deduct the extra 1/2.
If you owe money on your taxes, you file electronically & you haven’t paid, make sure the funds are sitting in the account attached to your return cuz it’s coming out tomorrow!
Example 100 that it's a cult. Freelancers, please, your future is dependent on you making sane investment decisions to provide for when you can no longer work. Do not EVER do what these people did. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…
Taxes due on Monday. If you're on staff someplace but also freelancing, you can no longer take a home office deduction. If you're 100% freelance, you can take the deduction but it needs to be a dedicated space unused for other purposes.
"Top political human minds" means they're putting big money into lobbying in an effort to undermine/change copyright law. The news industry failed to see the internet threat in 1990s that ultimately destroyed revenue for publishers. Will history repeat itself?

Tax day is a week from today for 2023 as well as the due date for 1st Q payments for those freelancers on quarterly payment schedule (which is most, tbh)
I hope freelancers realize how vital registering their work with the USCO is to protecting your lawful rights to earn income while controlling how your photos are used! AI companies have chosen the "fuck it, we'll deal with the lawsuits later" approach in mass.👇

"For the week, Trump Media shares slid more than 32%." "Truth Social platform has lost roughly $4 billion in market value over that stretch." Trump is nothing but a low level con man running short of cons.

Stellar economy with record employment and, most importantly, wages outpacing inflation again. So, my question to editorial freelancers is when was the last time your editorial clients raised your assignment rate? nytimes.com/live/2024/04/0…
The sooner you learn the nuanced art of negotiating rates & terms, the brighter your #freelance future will be. You won't "win" them all, nor should you lose them all, but negotiating & compromise is key. Just like a romantic relationship, mutual respect is what you're after.
When corporations tell you they’re raising prices to offset “inflation,” ask them why profits are hitting all time highs. And then ask them why you haven’t received a freelance rate increase. x.com/kathyjones/sta…

Freelancers, PLEASE keep this in mind when publications (including NYT whose profits have increased every year in recent past) say they can't afford to raise your fee. If you're doing corporate work like most, you should absolutely be raising rates. The money is there.

Always happy to see opportunities for new story telling! Graph toward the bottom of this letter references Meredith still holding all photo rights, so if the time comes to accept assignment or negotiate license to a project, parse the terms. Meredith controls many publications.

A key reminder that if you receive a W2 as an employee, you can not take a home office deduction. Also, a space in your home needs to be exclusively for work, not a mixed use space. More info & tips in this story 👇washingtonpost.com/business/2024/…
Bought $AAPL pre iPhone with $8k saved from adjunct teaching. Bought more for 17 yrs using Apple dividends & was all in on them until 2023. I turned IRA over to advisor who sold all but 5% & diversified for retirement. Freelancers, the future is YOUR responsibility. Plan now.
Just got a royalty report from my publisher and my book is still selling well. I'm super happy that people have found it helpful. To those who've purchased a copy, thank you! Feel free to drop a review if you haven't yet. 🙏👇amazon.com/Freelance-Phot…

Amen. And I’ll add something my clients are probably sick of hearing: build the registration process (preferably prior to publication) into your workflow. This will look different for everyone. But making it routine is the trick.
