    Apparently I haven't disabled the notifications for this thread. I've been out of the forum for months. Best decision ever along with stop wasting time with people on discord, reddit and all other platform good only for action faking. Yeah, I achieved my goal, I'll move to another country in a...

    The journey will continue privately. I won't update this thread anymore, there's no sense in doing it. Thanks to the few who were actually reading it. The end.

    Day #18 No more self-analysis, back to action. Upwork I randomly check it out, if there's some job that fits my skillset and it's 1k+ I would apply. Sent 1 proposal effortlessly, something like "hi, i specialize in what you need, hit me up" and I got the interview in spite of the other 20 to...

    Day #13 Unproductive day. I screwed up my schedule, went to bed super late and woke up at 11am. Spent hours just reading threads here and action faking trying to solve problems that are not in front of me. Eventually I force myself to do something and went ahead with the "webdesign niche"...

    DAY #12 Short daily update. Completed all Upwork projects, collected all the money and got the reviews. I'm done with Upwork. It just doesn't make sense spent 5 days of work for €300. I better focus on lead gen. I'll keep having a look without much effort though, and apply if it sounds like...

    DAY #11 I forgot to mention my country's government issued a covid help benefit for small businesses so i got €1k from them. Not really earned but now I "just" have to earn €9k. With all the projects got from Upwork till the begin of this journey, I'm at €330 (yeah... nuts). I can say €8670...

    "Your mistakes list should be longer." Yeah. Making mistakes is good. Saying: "i was nervous, i sucked, but I did it" is a good feeling. The longer is the list of mistakes, the more real action you're making. DAY #10 This morning I had some free time, while waiting clients input to continue my...

    Thanks. For real, it was surprising. It makes sense though, it's one of the first thing that people see and it has a huge impact in inspiring trustworthiness. Perhaps was a lucky shot, let's see next week how it goes.

    I said: "The website is $3000". They said: "Too expensive! I was thinking $500!"

    HOT! MARKETING 
    If I put myself in a biz owner shoes this argument does not sound that solid (I want understand what you mean with thinking process). Also, I believe someone who does websites for $500 can put together a professional site with the content in the right order, so disqualifying the cheaper...

    DAY #8 Focused all day long on a Upwork project (small website design). Completed and delivered, tomorrow I gotta go through the changes. Wanted to start the second project as well but we need to figure out some access stuff so I'll start that project on Monday. Didn't have the time to send...

    It sounds like you did great, thanks for sharing your discovery conversation, it's insightful to see how you found out several needs throughout the talk. Allow me some questions. What's the difference between your $3000 website and the $500-$1000 they were thinking about? You said the 3k...

    Day #7 Every time i rant about something, things immediately get better. I should rant more often lol 6 proposal sent. 5 interview. 2 jobs landed. I think the crazy increase in conversion rate is due to changing the profile picture on Upwork. Yeah, those details can make a huge difference...

    Is it ok to start cheap on UpWork?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    You did the right thing. That first gig is not worth $15 but $15 + your first 5 star review + (maybe) more work from the same client. Small jobs are the best way to build a good amount of reviews/testimonials within the platform.

    Day #6 6 new proposals sent on Upwork. 1 interview. 0 job landed. I think I found a niche to play with on Google Ads. CPC is quite good, €0.6, and volumes are promising. Content Production Due to the short-term nature of this journey I'm completely ignoring content production. I believe it...

    Day #5 Unproductive day. Woke up between 6-7 am and been a zombie all day long. Upwork was desert, just sent 2 proposals. 0 interview. 0 job landed. Spent the rest of the time fighting with doubts about what I'm doing. Not sleeping well always makes my mind weaker. I'm not comfortable in...

    From my little experience, each time I had that gut feeling it was always right. Obviously i figured that out not listening to it and keep going. What red flags did you spot, if i may ask?
