Hey Everybody! My name is Marius Furtuna and I’m currently offering AI Automation / Fullstack development services on Upwork. So far I’ve earned $3500 on Upwork and had 1 client. The reason I joined this community is because I want to lear how to get more clients. Outside of Upwork I like to do these things for fun: #1: Hiking #2: Working out #3: Traveling See you around!

Over the last 2 weeks I've interviewed a few successful members of our premium community. During the interviews we talk about their experience on Upwork, the keys to their success on Upwork, and their experience in our premium community. If you're trying to win on Upwork, they're worth watching, and you can check them out here: https://upscale-wins.com These are just a few examples of the success our members consistently have on Upwork.

Everyone says Upwork is saturated… but here’s what I’ve noticed: the freelancers who consistently win clients are not always the ones with the most polished profiles or the fanciest portfolios. The real winners? They’re the ones who take the time to understand their client’s mindset. They know what the client truly wants, what pain points they have, and how to make their life easier. I’m curious to hear from you all:💡 What’s one thing you do to really understand a client before sending a proposal?Everyone says Upwork is saturated… but here’s what I’ve noticed: the freelancers who consistently win clients are not always the ones with the most polished profiles or the fanciest portfolios.

I’ve generated 100K+ from Upwork in the last 12 months. These are the top 5 lessons I’ve learned. Lesson #1: Upwork is an Upward Spiral It’s supposed to be difficult to sign your first client. Once you do, it gets exponentially easier: - My 1st job: $60 - My 2nd job: $60 - My 3rd job: $1,600 / month But most give up before they sign their first client. Don’t be like most people - push through and you’ll reap the rewards for the rest of your life. Lesson #2: Spend the time, Perfect your profile. I promise, it’s worth it. Let’s say you spend 10 hours perfecting every aspect of your profile. If you submit 100 proposals per month, you’ll likely get 30 - 40 clients on your profile. Normally, you would get 10 - 20 messages. But with a fully optimized profile, you could see a 10% increase. That’s 1 - 2 extra messages per month, and 6 extra sales call each year…. 6 extra sales call per year for the rest of your life (more if you submit more proposals). That’s worth 10 hours of your time. Lesson #3: It’s a game of social proof The more social proof you have, the easier it is to sign clients. - Case studies - 5 star reviews - Video testimonials Gather as many as you can. The easiest way to do this is simply to ask. Every time your client experiences a big win or you successfully complete a project, ask for one of the above. Lesson #4: What gets measured gets improved If you’re serious, you need to track KPIs. - Proposals submitted - Proposals that get viewed - Messages you get from proposals - Sales calls that get booked from messages - Show up rate & close percentage. Tracking your KPIs allows you to identify the bottleneck, and solve it. Use this KPI tracking sheet to do this. Lesson #5: You need a high-quality service If you don’t deliver on your promise, you won’t last long on Upwork. Bad reviews are the boogeyman
