Case Study: That Lot achieves faster, more efficient freelance management with Worksome

How Worksome helped That Lot remove the friction in freelance management

That Lot, a creative agency in Liverpool, was struggling with the time and friction involved in managing freelancers and contractors. Their HR, legal, and finance teams were handling payroll, worker classification, and admin manually, creating siloed information, back-and-forth communication, and too much time spent on compliance tasks instead of creative work. They chose Worksome to simplify and centralize freelance management, including help with IR35 compliance and contractor administration.

With Worksome, That Lot moved contractor management into one system, reducing admin from 14 hours to 1.96 hours per freelancer contract, an 88% time savings. The company also saved an estimated £72,282 per year on admin costs, improved confidence around worker classification, and gave freelancers a smoother experience. Worksome’s customer success team also helped tailor the platform to That Lot’s needs, including shorter payment terms to keep top freelancers happy.
