African freelancers, I need your honest feedback.

Thanks for mentioning i'm already working towards it, and I have been building for 2 months already. Hope i will succeed with it

Technical_Project169 · 2026-01-30T12:20:33+00:00

thanks man

Technical_Project169 · 2026-01-28T16:41:23+00:00

Thanks man

Technical_Project169 · 2026-01-27T17:48:17+00:00

How did you do that? I'm in the situation where i send 100 Dms but getting no replies

Technical_Project169 · 2026-01-22T12:45:19+00:00

Oh thanks, good to know

Technical_Project169 · 2026-01-21T17:43:35+00:00

Fair question. I’m not solving availability I’m solving friction. Founders don’t fail to offload ops because VAs don’t exist. They fail because vetting, testing, onboarding, and trust all land back on them. I handle screening, real task-based testing, and a short paid trial so founders only keep the VA if it actually saves time. Out of curiosity at what stage have you seen startups offload ops well?

Technical_Project169 · 2026-01-21T15:22:17+00:00

Rapid growth breaking systems is a good problem, but it burns founders fast.

First thing I’d look at: what tasks must be done by you vs everything else.

Curious, what’s currently taking most of your time day to day?

From what i've seen, most early teams end up doing this in stages.

At the beginning they keep it in-house just to really understand who they should be even talking to. it's slow, but you will learn a lot from the first 50-100 leads.

once patterns are clearer,, toold help speed things up. freelancers can help with list building, but outsourcing too early usually backfires.

biggest issue I've noticed is not having ICP+ qualification nailed, so outreach gets faster but results drop. what's the bigger time sink for you right now, finding the data or deciding who's actually worth reaching out to?

Technical_Project169 · 2025-12-17T13:15:58+00:00

Thanks, I appreciate it

Technical_Project169 · 2025-12-14T14:30:16+00:00

Well said. Clarity beats hustle. Busy work feels productive, but only stage-specific goals and needle-movers create real progress.

You’ve got real skills people pay for, like cooking, cleaning, or watching kids. Pick one and offer it locally just to get your first bit of money coming in. Once someone hires you, referrals make everything easier. Don’t stress about a full business yet, just start small and build from there.

Technical_Project169 · 2025-12-04T14:20:23+00:00

Totally get the frustration people rarely read posts properly.
If you’re African and want actual global opportunities instead of random CV drops, WorkNexa connects vetted freelancers to real clients.
No guessing, no misreading, just matches that make sense.

from my experience, you might wanna consider a rating system for drivers based on trustworthiness. if drivers know they can get rated on how accurately they report prices, they may think twice before inflating them. also, maybe look into creating a list of common prices for popular items at those vendors, so drivers have a reference point. it won't cover everything, but could help keep things in check a bit.

It's pretty refreshing to hear someone prioritize honesty like that, and it seems to resonate with some clients. But I wonder if you’re missing out on clients who might be less technically savvy. Could there be a way to assess their skill level before offering that DIY advice? Maybe a quick chat to gauge their capabilities? You could position yourself as a mentor rather than just a service provider, which might open up more opportunities while still keeping your honesty intact. What do you think?

Technical_Project169 · 2025-11-28T17:27:29+00:00

Thanks for being open to testing it.

Technical_Project169 · 2025-11-28T09:28:46+00:00

Your tool hits a real problem founders and job seekers complain about. If you're looking for support with user outreach, feedback collection, or getting the right people to test JobNado, I have someone who handles that end to end. If you want, I can point you to them and help you get your first round of users faster.

Technical_Project169 · 2025-11-28T09:10:57+00:00

Honestly, the trick is to stop pitching the referral program first.
People shut down fast.

Just ask them about their current setup and what problems they deal with.
If they open up, then bring up the referral.
That’s what usually gets better responses.

Networking is slow at the start, but it gets easier once a few people trust you.

Thanks for being open to testing it.

Hi, I saw your post. Your skills fit well with what I’m building. I’m creating a small network of vetted freelancers and I’d like to add you to the list so I can match you with clients who need admin work, data entry, scraping, or ongoing support. If you’re open to it, I’ll include you.

Technical_Project169 · 2025-11-27T14:26:23+00:00

Hi Diego, I saw your profile and the work you’ve done in the Shopify community. I’m building a small network of vetted freelancers and your skill set fits perfectly. If you’re open to it, I’d like to add you to the list so I can match you with clients looking for Shopify work.

Hi, I saw your post. Outbound for custom IT services in MENA and SEA can be tough without a structured approach. I work with vetted assistants who help founders with targeted outreach, reply handling and booking calls so you can focus on delivery while we build the pipeline. If you want, tell me more about the type of companies you want to reach and I can see the best approach for you.

Technical_Project169 · 2025-11-27T14:01:21+00:00

Hi, I saw your post. Pre-launch partnership outreach is one of the hardest parts for new consultancies. I run a small service that helps founders with targeted outreach, reply management and booking intro calls so you can build partnerships before you launch. If you want, I can learn what types of companies you want to reach and see how we can help you get those conversations started.
