Freelancer Team: specialists from my network
Recommendations for everything beyond my areas · more than 150 vetted freelancers · no referral fee
Not every task falls within my areas. For ad campaigns, copy, video or design, I recommend specialists from the Freelancer Team. This page explains how the network works, when I recommend someone and who is responsible for what.
01 // WHAT THE FREELANCER TEAM IS
The Freelancer Team is a network of more than 150 vetted freelancers. Andreas Absmeier and Christoph Buder, two performance marketers, founded it in 2021. Before that, the two passed on their knowledge to other freelancers under the name FreelanceAcademy. Professional exchange and mutual referrals grew into the team.
It sees itself as an alternative to the classic agency, without agency hierarchies. Each project gets the roles it needs.
02 // MY CONNECTION TO THE TEAM
The Freelancer Team is part of my network. Since November 2026 I write as an author on the freelancerteam.de blog. My first article shows how a specialist department's knowledge turns into expert articles.
For you, this means: if your project needs skills I do not offer, you do not have to search yourself. I name people whose work the team has vetted.
03 // WHEN I RECOMMEND SOMEONE
My areas are technical SEO, SEO reporting, GEO, agentic SEO, AI consulting, custom software and web development. If your project needs more, I recommend suitable people from the team, for example for:
- Google Ads or social media campaigns after a relaunch
- Copy, video or illustration for new pages
- Graphic design, UX/UI design or corporate design
- CRM rollout and business intelligence
04 // HOW A RECOMMENDATION WORKS
You can ask me directly or use the matching request on freelancerteam.de ↗ (in German). It works in four steps:
- Describe your situation: project status and goal in a few sentences, no long questionnaire.
- Receive the matching email: profiles of suitable freelancers by email, with a reason for each recommendation.
- Get in touch directly: you decide whom to contact. No sign-up on a platform is needed.
- Get started: agree on the details and start.
05 // WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT
- Agreement and billing: you work directly with the recommended freelancer. They agree their part of the project with you and bill it themselves.
- Coordination across people: if several people from the team work on a project, one fixed contact person coordinates.
- Referral: there is no referral fee.
- Access: accounts and systems stay in your ownership. The team documents the work and hands it over in a structured way.
06 // THE SPECIALIST AREAS
The people in the team cover six specialist areas. Profiles, solutions and tools are listed on freelancerteam.de ↗.
07 // MY ARTICLES ON FREELANCERTEAM.DE
This is where I collect what I publish on the team's blog. All my publications are listed on the Thorsten Litzki page.
