UPDATED THOUGHTS AND RESULTS: I know it hasn't been a month but I've got new opinions. would love to hear from others. Below this update is original post. - Jobs applied to: 37 - Deals reached messaged stage: 15 - Deals with active proposals out (they've said they want to work together, want to continue discussion, we align on next steps): 4 Deals already closed: 3 Cash collected since start of Dec: $9500 Expected by EOM: $12500 - Speed is important. Lots of people are messing quick. You need to be sending proposals fast. Way more important than I remember. - Lots of deals just kind of sitting at messaged stage. Not sure why you would post a job, reach out, and just kind of sit. I confirmed these jobs have not hired anyone else, they're just kind of sitting. - You have to be able to showcase real world experience. If not you are out of luck. They do not care what your degree is, they care that you've built this exact thing. - There are still monster jobs out there at many different seniority levels. - Focus on front end conversion, with backend up sell. Iykyk. - People are treating boosting like a real ad platform. They are willing to spend serious money to rank higher. Its pretty insane. ### Original Post: December was the first month in about a year I've been active on Upwork. I've mostly just kept my profile active and accepted invitations, but not actively applying. My stats for December: - Jobs applied to: 32 - Deals reached messaged stage: 11 - Deals with active proposals out (they've said they want to work together, want to continue discussion, we align on next steps): 5 - Deals already closed: 2 What is very different from a year ago: - Unreal how competitive it is. Any good job has over 100 applicants the first day - Clients are hiring very quick. I've noticed a lot of jobs hire within the first 2 days of posting. Speed to proposal is CRITICAL - Boosts have taken over. Any good job is boosted past 100 connects.

Hey guys, Mohammed here. Computer science student. I’m joining to seriously learn, starting with the Ultimate 17-hour and n8n masterclass. Glad to be part of the community.

After another great Skool call this week! The group decided to focus more on Upwork and the freelance side of things during this week call. I have posted my new Upwork profile below(feel free to roast it in the comments). But anyone is welcome to post their profile to see if anyone has any suggestions or advice on how to improve it. https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~015d72edf618072bc4?viewMode=1

Only looking for information if you've integrated n8n workflows into SaaS workflows (multi-users). Since n8n is a static workflow did you build a queue system for requests? Did you figure out how to async an n8n workflow? Does n8n have a module to support async triggers? Not sure how it scales past just backend processes not in a multi-tenant env

All of the resources for the course are in the classroom Excited to share with you what I worked on over the past few weeks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ43SRdTMs0
