Hi guys,
I've been reading through this thread slowly over the last few weeks, along with Lex's other thread.
Slowly because after years of forum membership, I finally put taking action first and reading on here last. Anyway, I'm up to like page 22 here. Right now, I had to jump on and share my own good news though. . .
In an attempt to learn more about marketing, copy, and product creation, I signed up on Upwork about 10 days ago. My intention is to learn, get paid to learn, and use the cash to fund my own businesses and products.
This morning I sent out my 20th application in the last 10 days. I have no major experience, just some very minor stuff that I can't even reference/prove. I have no qualifications, no feedback, and no contacts. Until the beginning of this month, I didn't even know Upwork existed.
This evening I logged in to two job offers, and an interview! Not only that, but one of the job offers I bid over his budget - because I felt I could do a great job, and the budget offered wouldn't cover the time this would take. The second offer was somebody needing a quick job done by Thursday - I offered to do it by tomorrow.
You focused, and over-deliver really does work. Thank you to everybody in this thread, you've all given me inspiration and information along the way.
Now - better get to work eh! 😀
Congrats brother. You could have stopped. You didn't . Now enjoy the results.
