Hi Varun. Great post!

I especially like your point in preventing overhead. Being a freelancer for many years, many of my clients are startups. Startups often do not have a fully developed process with contracts and paying regularly. Therefore, I think that it is especially important to find efficient ways to save time, especially from a freelancing perspective. When it comes to administrative work, that can become a barrier from spending more time with customers.

I prefer to use AskFora when freelancing because it does a great job with handling the administrative aspect of freelancing that helps avoid overhead that is unnecessary so that I may spend more time with more of my clients to be focused and innovative.
