Tell HN: Predictions on the Future of Freelancing

1. Most companies will rely on freelance workforce and have several freelancers in each department.

2. There will be a huge rise of freelancing schools. Courses to learn about writing, sales, front-end design or no-code. Most of those programs will be project-based and online-first.

3. A large part of freelancing will move from custom project proposals to packaged services with a fixed scope and price.

4. Companies will start hiring "Head of Remote" or "Chief Freelance Officers"

5. No-code tools, platforms, and software will give rise to millions of new freelance jobs. Think about "Shopify experts", "Salesforce consultants" that already exist now.

6. Those freelancers will be "Super freelancers", augmented by AI and the tools they use.

7. A lot of companies will move from hiring in-house CFOs, CMOs, CTOs to fractional executives-as-a-service to be more cost-effective.

8. Countries will start creating freelancer visas, remote worker permits, and special economic zones to attract freelance talent. This is already happening in Estonia.

9. There will be a company similar in size to Amazon that will be the "Amazon of services"

10. The fastest growing category of service will be called "Service with a software" (SwaS): Tech-enabled services.
