Assalam o Alaikum,
I hope you guys are doing well. I'm a professionally video editor having experience of 5+ years in this field and worked in many different agencies (in the agencies whom Haroon Bhai personally helped them). But now from 1 or 2 years ago, I've started working with international clients as a freelancer.
I really want to join the next challenge whenever it becomes available but before getting enrolled I want to clear out my doubts and decide. Below are my concerns listed.
- Current Situation: I've only one client right now which pays me well but honestly I'm getting nightmares of ye client chala gaya tou kya hoga and it happens daily. So I need to find other clients as well taake aage koi pareshaani na aaye.
2. Bidding on Upwork: I've tried multiple times on upwork but I'm not getting replies on upwork or agar aa bhi gaya tou bohot hi kam pay karte hain tou I want to ask ke upwork pe kya itna hi underpaid work milta hai or kya mujhe karna chahiye? and secondly, is challenge mein upwork ke ilawa different platforms par outreach karna sikhaya jayega?
3. I've worked with a guy (agency owner) where he teaches outreaching strategies on different platforms such as Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter. It worked for me, abhi tak jo clients aaye usi method se aaye hain or high ticket clients hain but ab jab bhi mein outreach karta hoon tou no replies at all. It could be because I don't have many followers on my personal brand neither I do have any reviews of my clients. (bottlenecks)
4. Lack of Motivation: Mein roz kaam karta hoon roz outreach karta hoon but jab mujhe prospects reply nahi karte tou meri motivation chali jaati hai or mein time waste karne lagjaata hoon? Tou I request everyone agar iska koi solution ho ke ap is problem ko kis tariqe se handle karte hain?
These are only my concerns which I wanted to talk about. Thank you for reading this, Looking forward to your responses.
