There is a conflict between managers and marketers over RTO that is leading to more marketing professionals (61%) to look at freelance opportunities because of their current employer’s RTO policy, according to a survey from Fiverr Pro. The survey shows that 85% of marketing leaders conducted layoffs this year or last year, resulting in a loss of various skills, with the top three being Marketing Manager (37%), Digital Marketing (31%), and Market Research (30%). Of the marketing leaders who conducted layoffs, 83% turned to freelancers.

“The unpredictability of the U.S. economy has forced many marketing leaders to lay off full-time workers, which has left entire teams with missing roles that impact productivity,” said General Manager of Fiverr Pro, Shai-Lee Spigelman. “As these leaders look to stabilize their business and fill those gaps, we’re seeing freelancers as a solution that positively benefits the entire team — providing support to full-time employees, bringing in new ideas, and maintaining strong business momentum.”
