I spent 12 Months on Upwork. And made $235k. Fun fact, I rarely used the job feed. I’ve made a free video explaining how I did, like & comment ‘VID’ and I’ll send it.

AI is going to break a lot of freelancers not because they’re bad at what they do because they built their entire income around being a pair of hands. and hands are getting automated.. the ones who survive won’t be selling execution anymore. they’ll be selling the thing that sits between “here’s what the client asked for” and “here’s what they actually need” that gap is judgment. taste. the ability to say “don’t build that, build this instead” AI can’t do that.

$10k for design. Oh but ‘design is dead’ Oh but ‘Upwork is rubbish’ Oh but ‘AI will just do it instead’ What you need to understand is that there’s 2 parts to the lake. You’re either finishing in the shallow part, or the deep part. The shallow part is full of DIY clients, who want a low price, want it done quick, and are happy for an AI version to call it ‘done’. But in the deep part of the lake, the same clients are still there. The ones who value the opinions of an expert and value their own time too. Be mindful where you fish.

@ux_vlad It’s either 0k without upwork, or 9k with them. You only pay their fee if they get you a client.

@remoteoliver Makes sense if you’re a company, and completely unfair for the freelancers who can’t disburse taxes from it

Everyone says "charge your worth" after making couple mil online.. I realised this is terrible advice your worth has nothing to do with what clients pay clients pay for the value they receive, not the effort you put in you could spend 100 hours on a project and it's worth $500 if it doesn't move their business forward or you could spend 5 hours on strategy that saves them from a $50k mistake and it's worth $15k ROT is a better metric the ROI (return on time)

the gap between "i need clients" and "i have clients" is your client funnel right now that gap is 60-90 days of uncertainty you post things, have some conversations, hope something converts premium freelancers have that gap down to 14 days they know exactly what needs to happen for someone to go from stranger to signed client you're guessing, they're engineering

Life lesson here. When people say ‘invest in yourself’ this is why. If you lost everything, you still have your mind and what you know. Learn everything you can do get to $50k a month, then no matter what, you’ll always have the skills to do it again.

$177k one month after launch. My new stealth company is even growing faster than Cal AI. We’re looking to bring on a Head of Email Marketing to build out lifecycle marketing funnels. If interested, DM Me.

making £250k/month sounds great but it comes with a lot of stuff you don't want managing 30+ people, high overhead, legal complexity, constant fires life’s easier at the £50k/month mark low costs, more freedom, just me and maybe a VA or project manager need to remember that money is a tool for buying back time

@camgomersall Nice work but it’s all ‘you you you’ No strong testimonials high up, no examples of real results. Everyone says they can, few prove it

$80k in new client work in 30 days. for those below that, you need to fix your lead funnel. people see your work → some percentage interested → some percentage reach out → some percentage book calls → some percentage sign. you're losing potential clients at one of those stages and it’s likely you don’t know which. so you keep creating more content hoping volume fixes it (it doesn't) comment your website and I’ll run a quick red flag review to help you.

AI is either a distraction, or provides action. Be mindful how you use it.
