GOLD! EXECUTIONOverall Update Spoke to soon on my last update, now at about 3.4K MRR after signing some smaller clients. They're going to be the last batch that I offer the lower experiment pricing to because the effort involved to onboard them is the same as more profitable clients and the work involved is...- DoWhatWorks

The Client Acquisition Thread
CHATNot a stupid question at all. I have a slightly different approach to Andy, I'll avoid details to not increase competition for myself but I get leads from popular platforms where a buyer would go if they were seeking services so they're somewhat warm already. Ironically enough though, I'm...- DoWhatWorks

GOLD! EXECUTIONOverall Update Still at 3K MRR and hit a plateau. Have had holiday trips which has slowed things down sales wise (and revealed I need to eventually de-attach myself from Sales too) and basically lost some clients and won some clients. I've experimented with offering a smaller package with...- DoWhatWorks

The Client Acquisition Thread
CHATThis is so simple (and I suspect effective) that I'm embarrassed I didn't think of it myself! Thank you. Very timely advice as I'm building a personal brand to try and earn more inbound leads vs relying on outbound.- DoWhatWorks

The Client Acquisition Thread
CHATI run a social media agency and offering free audits has worked well to get people on calls. Has helped build credibility, especially in the earlier days. Sharing Loom video audits in advance also worked well but I stopped doing them from scratch when I realised people would still book a call...- DoWhatWorks

Need help with not getting any Upwork job offers
SIDE HUSTLEA lot of good contributions already. As someone who actively makes money on Upwork I'd highly recommend you send Loom videos too. People love being educated not sold. Ask for their existing website and record a loom of you sharing things they're doing well & what they could do better. You...- DoWhatWorks

My journey to financial freedom
RANT INTROFirst of all - the fact you're on a site like this at 16 is incredible! All I cared about then was house parties. It will only be compressed if you let it. This is a choice you make, never forget that. Everyone's felt like this before. Those who end up being successful keep pushing on. As...- DoWhatWorks

GOLD! EXECUTIONThank you!
