Your business structure, pricing model, or accounting setup might be quietly leaking money. Margins lost to taxes, rates not indexed, hours undercharged. These gaps compound over time. And the longer you wait to review and adjust, the more profit slips away without you noticing.
Because doing great work alone doesn’t guarantee a great business.
The difference lies in how you run the financial, legal, and operational side. Staying on top of your financials is crucial. You should actively manage and understad the financial side of your business, not just let your accountant handle everything once a year.
That’s exactly why we organise and why you should join the upcoming event Freelance Finance Day 2025, to help you understand the money side of your business and take control of your finances with confidence.

If you’ve been freelancing for a few years and want to take things to the next level, this day is for you. You already have clients, systems, and experience. Now you want to make sure you’re making the smartest financial choices.
As one attending freelancer put it: “I’m always looking for the best possible fiscal choices, and when it comes to investing, I want to know the best way to move forward.”
It doesn’t matter what kind of freelancer you are, Freelance Finance Day isn’t about working in finance, it’s about mastering the financial side of freelancing.

Freelance Finance Day is designed for freelancers who:
- Value professional growth, control and stability
- Want to protect and grow their income
- Aim to optimise taxes legally and efficiently
- Feel ready to build long-term wealth
Optimise your setup, grow your profits
Finance Day 2025 is organized around four key themes; each tackling one part of how freelancers can build a business that truly serves them
1. Keep Your Value, Keep Your Money
Your pricing and contracts are the front line of your financial health.
Legal expert Eveline Van den Abeele will share how to design contracts that protect your income, strengthen your position with clients, and eliminate the silent revenue leaks that creep into every project.
Then Denys Robyn brings the psychology and strategy behind setting rates that truly reflect value — not just effort.
Together, they’ll help you protect your worth, negotiate with confidence, and build pricing systems that grow with your business.
2. Plan Better: Improve Time Management and Efficiency
Time isn’t just hours, it’s energy, attention, and opportunity.
In his session, Michael Houben shows how to apply engineering principles to time management, helping you design workflows that reduce chaos and create focus.
Meanwhile, Piet Saegeman takes this idea further, exploring what “independence” really means when your business depends on you.
These sessions will help you reclaim structure, define balance on your own terms, and create more space for work that moves you forward.
3. Optimize Your Finances
The way you pay yourself could be costing you more than you think.
Accountancy founder Hassan Ayed will break down the 2026 tax changes and how to structure your income in smarter, more sustainable ways.
You’ll come away with actionable ways to make your money go further, and your setup work harder.
4. Build Wealth and True Freedom
Once your income is stable, the next question becomes: how do you make it last?
Sébastien Aguilar, who leads the Financial Independence Community in Belgium, will show how freelancers can build wealth over time through simple, low-risk investing strategies.
Then Frédéric Collard, a cybersecurity consultant turned real estate investor, will share how he transformed freelance earnings into long-term assets and what practical steps you can take to do the same.
This final theme is about leverage: turning the independence you’ve built into freedom that endures beyond your next project.
Not joining may mean your setup remains suboptimal — costing you unnecessary taxes, weak margins, or missed returns.
Ask yourself: is your financial setup really working for you — or against you?
Beyond the Sessions: Learn, Connect, and Grow Together
Freelance Finance Day 2025 isn’t just about expert talks.
It’s about meaningful connection — the kind that brings accountability, inspiration, and real learning from your peers. You’ll meet ambitious freelancers who share your goals and your worries — people figuring out how to make independence truly sustainable.
Even though the event takes place online, we put a lot of effort into making it interactive and creating genuine opportunities to connect with fellow participants. Expect peer-led discussions, live Q&A sessions, and a friendly, energising atmosphere that blends learning with community.
As one participant shared:
“This is a great opportunity to learn more about different revenue streams and ways to make, use, and gain more money! It is also a great way to connect with fellow freelancers in Belgium and beyond, as the chat was very lively and interactive.”
