Managed Interns vs. Freelancers for Small Business

Freelancers are everywhere. Fiverr Upwork and Freelancer.com have made it easier than ever to find someone to do almost any task. But ask any small business owner who has used freelance marketplaces regularly and you will hear the same stories. The $15 logo designer who disappeared after three revisions. The social media manager who missed every deadline. The expert copywriter whose work needed to be completely rewritten.

When you hire a freelancer directly you take on all the risk. You vet them manage them communicate with them and deal with it when things go wrong.

Shamrck is different

Shamrck is not a freelancer marketplace. It is a managed micro-internship platform. Every project has a dedicated Project Manager who is accountable for delivery. The student does the work. The PM oversees it reviews it for quality and manages all communication. You never deal with the student directly.

Every student is vetted

Students are accepted through a multi-step application process including a video interview and identity verification. Students are rated on every project and only advance to higher tiers by consistently delivering quality work.

Every project is scope-locked

You know exactly what you are getting before you pay. Payment is held in escrow until you approve the deliverable.
