How to create a gig in Crema?
Having discussed the Crema advantages and its purpose, let's take a look at the step-by-step process to create a gig.
1. Choose gig type
Here you only need to choose one of two options: either pay or collect.
2. Name your gig
This step is very simple. Just choose a name for the project that can be identified by your client. Also choose one that you will remember so you can check its status on your dashboard.
3. Assign items to your gig
Items are the activities you are going to perform in the project you are going to charge, or pay for. For example, if you are making a payment to a freelance accountant, in the items you could have activities such as filing taxes, creating invoices, etc. Each of these should be priced to add up to the total gig.
4. Terms and Conditions
This space should be used to write down those important points of your project that you need the client to remember. Those rules that would commonly be written down in a contract, you can have them in this space. In this way, the gig receipt will serve as a kind of contract.
5. Choose the payment method
In Crema there are three payment methods: single, multiple and recurring. Single is to pay the entire gig in one payment. Multiple consists of dividing the total payment into deferred payments and choosing dates for these. Finally, the recurring payment is like a subscription to the gig.
6. Send your gig
If you chose multiple or recurring payment, you will be asked to choose dates before you can send the gig. But if you chose single payment, the next step would be to review and send the gig. This can be done by email or copy and paste the link.
These steps are very simple and quick to complete. Do your test with Crema and see how good it is to have our platform as your main option.
