A Complete Guide To Making A Career On Upwork
Hello everyone, welcome to the course, “Winning Upwork”.
I started freelancing in 2013 along with my regular 9-5 job. At that time it was nothing but a time pass hobby. In 2016, I started a business and at the end of 2017, it collapsed.
I lost every penny I have ever saved, and on the top, I got a huge debt on me. I was totally broke.
That time I took Upwork seriously, and within 1.5 years I managed to pay all my debts. I can tour twice a year now and live a happy life with my family.
The freelancing business allows me to grow that fast and Upwork has a great contribution to it.
