    EXECUTION 
    These look amazing! I clicked over to back you and buy one as a gift for a relative who loves jigsaws but at 1000 pieces they are too big for her. I'm sure you have a very good reason for chooing the size, but just a little customer feedback, fwiw :D Do you have plans to release different sizes...

    (Re)introduction from the UK

    INTRO 
    Hi all, time for a proper introduction. I'm UK based, thirty-something, self-employed in a variety of jobs and looking to move forward. Two years ago I did a silly thing. I read TMF, found these forums and was blown away. I read a lot of threads, did the usual 'I have no ideas' thing, began to...

    This post. So simple, stupidly obvious, but it just blew my mind! Thank you for everything you've shared here @JasonR

    NOTABLE! SIDE HUSTLE 
    I've just returned to this forum after a couple of years and had to read this thread! I want to add a little something to the 'it can't be done' debate. I also started an Upwork account based on SinisterLex's original thread two (?) years ago and I picked up a few jobs (mostly content, some...

    Thank you. I bought the book (didn't realise it was on offer!) and have started looking though it. I see that there are several UK specific details so that's great - I look forward to working through the whole thing. Thanks!

    Hi, just want to say thanks for all the fantastic information you have shared here and ask one question about your book if that's ok? I'm in the UK and often find myself skipping whole sections or chapters of business books that deal with US taxes/business entities and other location specific...

    Thanks. I read your post and it looks like we are doing some of the same things. You said your earnings were for the first six weeks? My $1000+ is for nearly three months - month 1 was not much but it's building up - so you're probably heading the same way! I love your idea of having a...

    I'm just reaching the end of month 3 on Upwork and though I'd post some progress here, in case anything I say helps someone else. Earnings are just over $1200 but picking up now ($600+ already booked for the next week). I have several recurring jobs (some content stuff) and since becoming Top...

    This is worrying - my third rating was 4-and-something stars. The client was thrilled with the work I sent him and ready to re-hire me immediately so I can only assume that he (like most reasonable people!) thought that 4+ was a good rating. But I'm already worried about how it will affect my...

    I am starting to have the same problem. My advertised rate is sitting at $25/hr (low for copywriting but quite high for content writing - not really ideal for either!) but my actual pay for content is quite a bit lower than this as I tend to quote a fixed price per-article (depending on the...

    I believe that some unhappy Elancers have tried this - I read something last month about a site that was opening on the 1st Nov to compete with Upwork but I haven't seen anything about it since. I can't remember the site name now - frustrating!

    Some great tips - especially #4. I've found that explaining the 'why' gets me a better response to proposals - after reading this I will try adding it the the final delivery too. I'd like to add a tip of my own for those who like getting paid to learn. Some clients will actually teach you what...

    I've just ordered this (it might be quite UK-focused): http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0462099741?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00 It's all Googleable but I'd like a book too - I spend too much time staring at the screen as it is. I'll be interested to see if there are...
