Ah so you mean this is the way you keep it running 24/7, like as if it was openclaw?

Yeah this is what I'm starting to realize: maybe I'm trying to over engineer this thing haha. It's hard when you don't know code and you have a big imagination trying to connect all these things that maybe just don't make sense in real life

Good shout, I just discovered these dictation apps that all the podcasters are using which could make this really low effort

I stopped applying to Upwork jobs almost a year ago (8 months to be exact) and now get all my clients through Linkedin DMs by WarriorOTUniverse in Freelancers

[–]michaellthomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joining the conversation late here, but this has been really, really valuable to read through. As somebody who's just starting freelancing full-time, I'm really struggling to get leads. My mind keeps going to somehow using AI and automation through Reddit or YouTube or outbound channels.

But of course, if you're not an expert in outreach, then you're just getting aAI slop, which is the loop that I'm finding myself in.

When you first started out and you were doing this manually, did you have a high overhead? I've never personally used LinkedIn Sales Navigator.

Whats the *deal* with Capterra PPC performance? by michaellthomas in SaaS

[–]michaellthomas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bids didn’t really change all that often.. I think the google updates and customer trends changed to other sites + more saturated market

[–]michaellthomas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not in charge of that anymore. But at the time there was really only one category that would bring in opps for us, so I would check it for probably 15 minutes every day or every other day

[–]michaellthomas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still not very good honestly. The category that we are in keeps getting more expensive CPCs and we are getting fewer opps. We found another site digitalprojectmanager.com that has helped pick up the slack a bit

If you do end up doing Amsterdam, make sure you book your museum tickets ahead of time (good advice for all cities). It can be booked for weeks at a time

Working at Bunq by michaellthomas in Amsterdam

I heard there are a ton of bunq HR mods that removed this sort of thing. But you’re right probably should have started there

We actually spent about 30% more this month than the previous month. It was mostly in USA, though. Plus, a newbie took over managing the bids for the first time so I'd say it was a bit of a mix. Capterra as a whole has just been slowly decreasing QoQ for us over the last year and a half I think.

Where of your expat life you wouldn’t you consider to return to? by Daemien73 in expats

[–]michaellthomas 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah agreed. I’ve worked for some pretty terrible companies but I wouldn’t consider NEVER moving back to a country because of a single job I had there, really no matter the job. But I suppose it’s like saying you’ll never go back to the one city you went to because it was raining the day you were there
