Most freelancers who work for creative agencies probably work on-site with them in their studios. However, some don’t and others do a mixture of on and off-site work.
Finding a good place to work off-site can be a problem for freelancers. Working at home isn’t always an option if you need to be around town for meetings at studios.
So if you do need to work off-site there is a really useful website that I recently became aware of. It lists laptop friendly cafes in major cities around the world – sometimes these are the perfect environment for getting work done in an uninterrupted, productive environment with the use of free wi-fi to keep in touch with your emails.
The website is called LaptopFriendlyCafes.com and has a growing list of cafes that feature free wi-fi and power. It also works fast and easy on your phone, so you can easily find a cafe while you’re out and about.
