$150,000 by Dec 2020. Crushing it on Upwork

l wish you best of luck and more over try to know those that are doing wonderfully great on upwork and see what they are doing and apply to your own method
 
Glad my journey could help.


All the best bruv.


Thank you :)


I got a long way to go :) Thanks. No, I'm not pitching for graphic and web design because these two are among the most saturated gigs on Upwork.


Will do. Thanks :)


For now, I'm only doing what I'm good at. Lead generation. But as mentioned in my original post, I'm looking to collaborate with other professionals. I'm going to target the most difficult projects on Upwork, not simple work. More difficult the project, more money to be made, and less competition in it. Something like graphic design, virtual assistant, copywriter are very saturated. I'm not saying these tasks are easy, but there are hundreds and thousands of people on Upwork willing to work on these for cheap. These are not suitable for my annual target. I'm interested in projects which can get me a few hundred to a thousand dollars per project, or something that might be $50 - 100 for the first project, but I could find more areas to work on with the client to increase the ticket size.
Hello,

All the very best for your journey and congratulation on the 20k journey.

I just wanted to ask what kind of clients do you get for lead generation and how do you do it.

Thanks

Thanks
Thank you. I take clients from any industry I can get who need leads. I've described the process in my previous journey. In short, my proposals are very long. I spend upto 30 minutes on each proposal and send tens of testimonials and past projects.

Good luck
Thank you.

I think I cannot send a PM, as my account does not have permission for that.
Please do, Thanks!
 
Sorry if it has been asked already.

What type of lead generation do you offer? Please, a bit of explanation here would help a lot.

How do you convenience the clients that the leads are genuine?

At what point does your client agree with the genuineness of the leads?
 
I had almost given up on Upwork as it always seemed I was seriously outbid, so will follow your journey and strategy with much interest.
Good luck.

Same here. I just did some work for feedbacks and then thought it is not worth working there, but with these two journies, I think it's worth in the long term.
 
Another great journeye! wish you the best luck OP.

I provide leads of all kinds, any industry - mostly obtained from google and linkedin search. I don't have to convince the clients about the authenticity of the leads, because they ARE genuine. These are generated first hand leads, not taken from any existing lists.

Always keep pitching. If you keep pitching without losing hope, you'll start seeing replies from clients. There is no magic pill here. I'm not doing anything fancy and really don't have any "smart" method. Just old fashioned hard work. I apply to a 100+ jobs in a month (4 to 5 proposals a day). The investment is approx $30 a month + 30 hours spent on applying to jobs. Even if I get one job out of these 100, it's a worthwhile investment. Upwork is really a goldmine and sometimes I get jobs which can get me a 100X ROI. This is pretty much the strategy I use even for getting dates online on Okcupid. 30 swipes a day = 900 swipes a month = 10+ matches = Few back and forth messages and exchanging phone numbers = 2 dates a month (different girls).

Same here. I just did some work for feedbacks and then thought it is not worth working there, but with these two journies, I think it's worth in the long term.
You just need to make the client happy on Upwork for the small money. Then follow up with them after a month or two, they often have something else you can work on for higher income.

Another great journeye! wish you the best luck OP.
Thanks man :)

Good luck bro. Following your thread.
Thank you :)

I understand that you have good feedback and controlled list of clients, due to your existence in upwork with good enough feedback. I am generating genuine leads with prospects, but I am unable to convenience them when they don't get the results they expected, but which I haven't promised. I hope your guidance with this might help a bit (in fact a lot).

PM me a full conversation with a client from start to finish, I can have a look and suggest accordingly. Because till date no client has questioned the authenticity of my leads. I get full 5 star feedback for all lead generation projects. Never faced this issue you described but happy to have a look into it and help.

Thanks for the support. We have spoken earlier and you have even given your address to visit you to discuss your clothing brand, but unfortunately, it didn't go well with me. I don't know if I am up to you with this, happy that you told me to PM me. It's an essence being a Bangaluriga. Will discuss things with you online and hope to meet and learn thing offline as well. I know it's too late where we both are, will do so ASAP. Thanks for your support in advance.
