    EXECUTION 
    The part you may haven't seen is the retainer. That's what I've been doing lately. Client retainer = Completed orders with pending payment (100% independent, no freelance website fees) TB Retainer = Money I might unlock If I figure out the identity problem with one of my accounts. This number...

    After completing the Upwork profile, I filtered around 15 potential offers. Applied to one. I expect an order tomorrow from one habitual client. If nothing happens, I'll apply on Upwork for another one, also on PPH. Uncertainty is total.

    Also, I've created a good upwork portfolio, 3 pages. The only thing that sucks is that customer support takes forever to write about my first site issue. All because of a tiny stupid mistake I could avoid, now takes me weeks and lots of uncertainty. Whatever. The world will keep on turning.

    Sorry for not posting these previous days. Everything is chaos: I'm moving to another city, sending emails, and doing paperwork. Most of my time has been spent talking to customer support online, so I thought you wouldn't want to hear that. Right now, numbers are like this: So what am I...

    Good news!I've improved the way I spend my time, although it still doesn't reach those 80h of work. I've now worked 30h, spent 80h on needful tasks, planned 10h, wasted 38h, and spent 10h on "relax". (Relax means I wasn't working, but I neither was distracting or unproductive) My observations...

    Money stored in total... $40. ... This isn't going fast enough. Too inconsistent as you see. Here's what I see: - My second platform is inefficient (low work amount) - My finder method is inefficient (I send +10 proposals, nobody emails back) - Customer support ignores my emails You see the...

    Day 75. Yeah. Not very good at Finder's work, especially when I'm used to writing more than "hunting." So 2h went for work (action faking 6 of today's 8.5hs). But hey, I got some stuff done! Let's look at it: - Upwork submit: I didn't get any email. I applied this morning following Lex...

    @SinisterLex Hey Lex, do I am WhoPaysWriters to find media outlets? Btw, I just realized I "suck" at selling myself (never done it before). But I'm going to do it because I gives ten times better results

    Day 74. All Doer work is done. I guess it's respectable progress. Tomorrow, I'll complete work as I receive but, but mostly need to be on Finder mode — messaging people, applying for sites, pitching outlets. *1.5h went to Manager work today

    After being confused for a while, I've got some clarity for this thread. First off... A lot of you guys have come and suggested to me many tips make money with less effort (I work for less than $10 per hour as you see). Reality is, I can make it just the way I am now because I've done it...

    I was thinking of ranking on freelance sites to be visible, then work on long term projects with the best clients. When pitching sites, how do you increase "conversions?" Applying is the easy part. I need to figure out how to pitch.

    I had no idea about pitching. Sounds harder than going to freelance sites, but I'll research it to make it my priority. I don't know where to start but need to figure out.

    No earnings in Day 72... due to low order quantities. So I spent four hours applying to dozens of freelance sites. In the end, I filtered six that may have potential (excluding Upwork). Thanks, Lex Deville for creating the Top 100 Freelance Sites List! P.S.: I'm writing this on the morning of...
