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

[Seven4]

Hi! I do hope you obtain your goals OP! It would be great for you to reach $150,000 by the end of the year.

 

[stepdub]

Pretty impressive that you can do this amount of money on UpWork. Can't wait for 2021 journey as the 3rd part of the journey to 1 million $.

Thanks Bro. 2020 will probably be $500,000 journey that includes Upwork and other channels

Congratulations for the successful result

Thanks Bro.

Good luck for the rest of 2020. Does the earnings from gigs equate always to the same amount of hours? I.e. $1000 gig equals 20 hours work or can you sometimes do them in 5 hours etc?

No. It's all very random. Unlike my previous journey, I'm not counting hours this time. I'm spending 2 to 4 hours a day bidding on various projects, and just an hour or two executing the projects I won.

Keep it up.
Thanks Bro.

Following the journey closely.

Cheers

So basically... what you do? Can you get more into details? I have no idea what you are doing
Good luck though!

For now, taking anything I can get my hands on Lead generation and sales mostly.

I'm not counting hours. I told you the match. I'm spending 2 to 4 hours on bidding and an hour or two on executing won projects - these numbers keep changing.

I asked because I remember you said the goal is to be reached with 1 hour work/day/

How are you managing to get responses on your bidding on Upwork? Do you have a generalised profile or specific skill based profile?

That was the first journey (completed successfully). This one is part 2

Generalised profile. I write well with loads of testimonials from previous clients to get responses.

Wow well done. I tried having a general profile but didn't get any responses really when I tried. People found my skill set too general.

I mean, I do a lot of things on Upwork, not just one. But my profile is very well written.

Great, I'll guess I'll have to work on my profile some more.

Earning Update: 24th December 2019

It's a Merrier Christmas for me. Just got a new project for $500 (lead generation).

Total Earning: $1,565
Balance: $148,435

Hey, I really want to know on what basis does the lead generation works? Do you just give them the information that this person might be interested in your project or do you warm the leads for them?
And do you keep it per lead charge?

What an awesome journey'

I have always been put off by upwork i guess, by the bidding system it seems only the cream floats to the top and i feel this journey shows that. Well done for an amazing target i hope you nail it!!

Love the avatar btw, was a huge dnb raver

How do you manage to do a lot of things using one profile? Or do you operate multiple accounts? If yes how do you managed to verify them?

 

[stepdub]

Do that. Treat your Upwork like your Instagram profile. Pimp it up

They instruct in their job description what info they need in the leads. I charge on per project basis (not on per lead basis). I work around the clients budget always - there's no point negotiating with clients on Upwork. Cuz they always have the next guy who'd want to do it cheaper.

Thanks Bro. I discovered a lot of UK genres after watching Top Boy on Netflix: Grime, Dubstep, Jungle, Drum N Bass DNB makes me want to be British lol

How do you manage to do a lot of things using one profile? Or do you operate multiple accounts? If yes how do you managed to verify them?

Let's just say I'm a little bit lucky to have an 8+ years old Upwork profile with decent work history. So that has helped.

Amazing, are you aiming for high volume, low margin, or low volume high margin?

 

[stepdub]

Amazing, are you aiming for high volume, low margin, or low volume high margin?

Since this is the first month, I'm going to test both approaches and see what works best for me. The highest paying project I got is for $1,000 and the lowest so far is $75 (for this journey). In my previous journey on Upwork (you can look it up on my profile) the highest one was $3,000.

My strategy is to keep bidding non-stop and work with whichever client replies (getting replies from clients is difficult on Upwork due to so many freelancers on the platform in all niches). I'm pitching to at least one $5,000 project everyday - still waiting for my first high ticket project. Till I get the cake, I shall continue to eat the crumbs - still grateful that I get to eat something, considering how difficult it is to make money on freelance sites
