Hey There, IKEA!
We're IDLance, and we'd love to give you a hand with your Learning & Development needs.
Let's Build Something Great Together
We love IKEA. Always have!
Not just for the meatballs and tea lights (longest burning tea lights in the game), but because you’ve built something rare. You're a global brand that’s both wildly scalable and deeply personal. You make people feel like their homes matter! That function and beauty aren’t just for the wealthy few. And that everyone deserves a bookshelf with a name that sounds like a retired Swedish racehorse.
That kind of reach and heart don’t happen by accident. It happens through smart growth, strong values, and intentional learning. Which brings us to why we’re here!
At IDLance, we help companies like Zoom, HP, and Etsy support their people with clear, creative learning that actually works. Whether you're opening new stores, training new teammates, launching new systems, or rolling out a massive global shift in pricing strategy (👀), we help make sure the humans behind the scenes have what they need to succeed.
With IKEA’s continued growth, from your U.S. expansion in places like Syracuse to new markets like New Zealand, we see a huge opportunity to support your people the same way you support your customers: with care, clarity, and design that makes life just a little easier.
IKEA’s been on our Top 20 Dream Clients list for a while now. We probably shouldn’t have said that out loud. It sounds super creepy. Too late now!
We just really admire what you’re building, and we’d love to help support the people behind it with some more KLÄR-I-TY.
What Makes Us Different?
Not to be all, "We're not like other L&D agencies!" but it's kinda true. We're not really like other L&D agencies.
We believe in delivering results without all the other bullsh*t that tends to get in the way.
We're all about meeting you where you are. Drop us a pin, and we'll be right there. Just kidding. Or are we?
Because we operate remotely, geographical limitations disappear – we can collaborate with you wherever you're located! Freelancers bring a diverse range of skills and work styles to the table, so we can assemble a team perfectly tailored to your project's requirements, timeline, working preferences, and budget.
We aren’t just execution partners; we’re strategic partners. That means we're not rigid weirdos during the collaboration process and are more than happy to pivot and iterate as needed.
With an active global community boasting over 1,500 professionals worldwide, including Instructional Designers, eLearning Whizzes, Quality Assurance Specialists, Graphic Designers, Voice Actors, Writers, and more, we've got your diverse needs covered.
Plus, freelancers' hyper-focused specializations in niche areas, tools, and technologies can provide a depth of know-how that's often difficult to find in a full-time staff. When you work with us, you're not just investing in your project; you're investing in the future of many talented folks whom we could not be more proud of and inspired by every day.
We focus on outcomes, not outputs. This means we don't just check boxes; we take the time to understand your project's objectives and tailor our approach to ensure they're met. By focusing on outcomes, we can measure success based on what truly matters to you, not just on completing a list of tasks.
We know fast growth brings a lot more than just new facilities! It means onboarding new people quickly, getting managers ready to lead bigger teams, rolling out updated compliance and safety training, and keeping your culture strong through it all. Change moves fast, and so do we. We’re used to adapting on the fly without losing quality along the way!
We're committed to collaboration, communication, and constructive dialogue during every stage of our process. If you're looking for an L&D partner who's professional but still laid-back, we're it! Unless you say something rude about one of our dogs or something. We have limits, okay?!

How We Can Help
Growth is exciting, but it can also get messy. We help your team keep things clear, fast, and human, even as your tools, templates, and team members multiply. We kind of have nothing else to do. Please hire us.
Translate shifting strategy into clear, actionable learning
From new pricing models to sustainability initiatives, strategy is always evolving. We help your teams stay aligned with training that’s clear, human, and built to stick—no matter how fast things change.
Bridge communication across global, cross-functional teams
Retail, logistics, design, legal—your teams span countries and contexts. We build learning that speaks a shared language, helping every function work together without confusion or crying.Step in when you need capacity, fast
Opening a new store. Launching a new system. Rolling out training in three time zones! If your team’s stretched, we’ve got seasoned pros who can jump in quickly. We call it our Rapid Response Method, and you can read more about it here!Offer temporary support and permanent relief
We’re not here to replace your team—just to back them up. Think of us as your swarm of friendly, highly skilled worker bees. We show up fast, handle the hard stuff, and buzz off when the job’s done. Unless you want us to stick around. We’re cool with that, too. We make a mean lasagna. Do bees eat lasagna? They do now.
New to Outsourcing?
Hey, that's cool! We made a guide!
It’s like an IKEA manual, but for working with freelance learning pros. Fewer hex keys, same level of clarity. Inside, you'll find tips for smooth collaboration, what to expect, and how to get the best out of your IDLancer.
Best of all, no allen wrench is required!
