IX Freestyle

Hire our Ideasicle Experts for traditional freelance projects

Your fractional creative department

Prior to launching IX Freestyle, the only way to access the Ideasicle Experts was through our web application, IX Original, or through an IX Concierge project where we tap into them for you. But due to popular demand our Ideasicle Experts are now available for traditional freelance projects.

Will Burns, Founder and CEO of Ideasicle X, has worked with all of our Ideasicle Experts at creative agencies like Wieden+Kennedy, Goodby, Arnold, and Mullen, among others. He knows their strengths and will help you find the perfect fit for your creative, strategic or media needs. You’ll be in expert hands to find the right expert hands.

It’s like having a fractional creative department.

One Simple Invoice, Zero Hassles:

Your contract is with Ideasicle X—so you only deal with one vendor for access to our many freelancers. We handle all freelancer NDAs, manage 1099 relationships, and take care of invoicing. No tax paperwork or multiple payments—just a streamlined process that lets you focus on your project.
