How Much Do My Freelancers Need to Know?

Unlike your regular employees, your freelancers weren't around for the annual meeting, didn't go to the summer picnic, and probably won't be on the companywide e-mail list. That means they need some information that full-timers pick up just by showing up every day. What is your organization trying to achieve? What is your strategy for achieving it? How are you doing? This information may seem irrelevant — you're just hiring this person to do one thing. To a good freelancer, though, it offers an opportunity to fit his or her work into a larger puzzle, and even to come up with creative solutions that will move your company closer to its goals.
