This depends where they phone number of the freelancer is stored... do you have a database of these people or are you intending to investigate existing freelance sites? as I doubt they will make the mobile numbers of the freelancers available to external applications.

Personally I would create an application for the phone that would invoke a web service, but that is because it is simply my stong point, I think just a normal mobile optimised web site should be fine for the majority of what you want to do, then you would need some means of sending the sms using a website "back end" ... I'll have a look into this for you, but it isn't really "mobile development" as the real main part of this application will behappening on a web server by the sounds of it.
