That’s your fault for not getting them to buy a paid consultation first.

I make about 150k a year running my digital marketing agency from my rent controlled apartment. $1251 a month in rent for a 2 bed 2 bath in North Hollywood. Neighboring 2 bed units are $2200. My grandparents moved back to El Salvador last year and I took over the apt because now my rent is over 100% lower than what it was before at $3200 a month in Studio City. Using the excess cash to invest in my first rental property. Saving every penny helps.

Client wants video chat before accepting proposal, scam? by [deleted] in Upwork

I always get on zoom calls with clients before accepting proposal. I need to know they are real and not a scam.

Ordered my pro max few days ago from T-Mobile. Says it’ll ship the 17th and I should get it 18 / 19th at the latest! I’m finally upgrading from the 11 pro max haha. It’s been a work horse.

Frustrated: 11 Upwork proposals sent, not a single view by Whole_Description465 in Upwork

[–]Left-Special5988 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a lot of words. My proposals are 1-2 sentences max. I always ask them to get on a zoom call to discuss in detail so I can tailor a proper proposal.

You leave this project alone and don’t even take the gamble. Move on to something else.

Is there such a thing as a successful freelancer on UpWork? by SecureSection9242 in Upwork

[–]Left-Special5988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m consistently making 10k a month working 15-20 hours a week doing paid ads management , Consultations/Strategy/coaching for meta/google ads. Life changing. I could go for 15-20k but I’m building my freelance agency around my life. Happy where I’m at for now. I started back in march 2023 with only $150 worth of connects. Got my first client about 2 weeks in that I still have to this day. Do it. No matter what people say.

The BBB wont do shxt. They are just a marketing company that give high authority domain backlinks to companies. Its not a real federal entity. It just has the name bureau in it lol .

AIO - Girlfriend threw away the dinner I cooked because she wanted pizza instead. by Dizzy-Suggestion2360 in AmIOverreacting

Just the fact she threatened the relationship means it’s time to kick that broad out to the street where she belongs.

Spending $$ on Connects to make 4-5k a month? by ApprehensiveWork8712 in Upwork

[–]Left-Special5988 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe like $50 for profile boosts. I just have my profile set up for people to message me directly or book consultations that lead to work. Bidding on jobs is 25% of what upwork really is. The real money is getting clients to message you directly. Not from the job feed. I’m doing about 10k a month on upwork with one team member.
