Ask Do freelance platforms allow you to work as both a buyer and a seller at the same time?

[Edward22]

Some freelancers get to a point where they need to hire help for certain parts of their work, which means they want to buy services on the same platform they sell on. Most major platforms allow this, and they even make it easy to switch between a buyer and seller account. But some freelancers worry that using the same account for both can look strange to clients checking their profile. Have you ever used your freelance account to hire other freelancers, and did it cause any issues with how clients saw your profile?
