Many people are wondering whether there are any good clients on Upwork or not? Is it possible to close clients for a lot of money and build a real business?
Upwork is designed in the favor of the person who is buying the service and not so much in the favor of the freelancer who is selling the service. If there are some disputes, buyers tend to win.
The ability to deliver an awesome service will differentiate you from the crowd. If you do not deliver what the client needs, you will receive bad reviews, refund requests and people will no longer want to do business with you.
Some people look at freelancing platforms in a way to get a job. They are approaching this platform as cheap freelancers who compete with price. That is not a way of doing business. That is what someone is begging for a job is doing.
On the other hand, there are people who look at it as a way to generate leads for your business. Once you start thinking that way, you will realize that you can build a real business.
It is not that easy to transfer all your experience and knowledge to Upwork. In the beginning, you do not have any reviews and portfolio on Upwork.
If you want to show people that you have the skills and ability to deliver an awesome service, you need to get clients on sales calls. A sales call is where you get paid and solve problems. When you get them on a call, you can show them all your creditability. You have full control on the sales call and lead them to the close.
You need to rank on Upwork’s search engine and help them build their business. If you are fitting into their algorithm, they are going to send you as many sales as you could possibly imagine.
Think about how much money freelancer are getting paid through Upwork and how much money are getting paid outside of Upwork. Whatever numbers you see on Upwork, multiply it by 5 and you will get a better idea of the skills the freelancer has.
Most freelancers do not have a sales process. What I recommend you to do is to get mentorship. Learn from people who are a few years ahead of you. These people will coach you in lead generation, project management, delivery, hiring people and everything that you need to know to build a real business.
To get thousands of dollars of sales, you need to follow a proper process that you can copy. This is a working proven business model.
A cheap freelancer can earn 20% - 30% of what he can get per project. These people are not doing business. They have to be your employees.
Here is how a real business looks like:
• Delivery is handled by a cheap freelancer.
• You get paid premium amount of money based on the value that you provide.
• You outsource the work to cheap freelancers.
It does not matter how much competition there is. You must negotiate based on the value that you provide and do everything that you could possibly do to close the sale.
High paying agencies are very picky with who to work with. They do not talk much about price. They are interested in the value that the freelancer can provide.
The more money someone is going to pay you, the more proof they will require. A high level of proof is when you let your previous client talk to the new one and show them exactly how much money they have spent and what is their ROI.
In our mastermind Daily Business Hustle, we have created a system called Peer To Peer Business Mentorship (PTPBM). We are getting away from the old fashioned industry of education. We are trying to build a new paradigm where you can learn faster and learn from people who can show you exactly the steps that you need to do to get to those $30K sales.
People who are just a few years ahead of you know exactly what you need, because they have been in the same position. Moreover, they can relate to you 100%. That is the difference between being coached by someone who is very far away of you and someone who can relate to you and show you the steps that you need to take to get results.

There's a whole playlist with tutorials on how to get started, check it out here: kzbin.info/aero/PLbWQNSfR50dfD76y9JYI2Fl4lsIjtgihQ

Aleks, first of all, this video is a BANGER!! Spot on sir! I've been following you lately and the recent videos seem more professional, but being honest, this one is gold. Don't know why the comment section is full of politically correct people like they never use fck or shit, tough love is important guys. Be real, real sells. Secondly, thank you so much for the amazing playlist, just completed watching it. I'm 19, worked as a Brand identity designer for a year(Upwork) but now working on my skills to be a Shopify developer. While working as a graphic designer my approach was so so wrong, I barely made $1k, but now I'm gonna make sure to improve my sales pitch. Wish me luck! Keep up the good work Aleks! Hope I can join your mentorship program sooner.

[@AleksanderVitkin]

Just from your attitude, based on what you wrote, I can tell you’re going to make it.

[@JoinMrSmart]

A great video! Thanks for such a beautiful content ...

[@AleksanderVitkin]

Thanks for coming by!

[@aeonsleo2]

I work via Upwork, most high paying jobs don't usually come when you send proposals, they come via word of mouth, when your client recommends you somewhere else. 💲30000 per month is a joke, If I was earning that much, I won't be making seller pitch on KZbin.

[@AleksanderVitkin]

Good to hear Abhishek. Carry on then.

[@nabilbashir3617]

Flawed logic, so in theory you can’t make more money because you’re already making alot of money? Not so bright pal.

[@officialmattbell]

Interesting video.. so I'm a growth specialist, earning between $11,000 - $14,000 per month but that's purely working as a freelancer. I don't think I could ever trust hiring a team to deliver on the work lol, also all of my high paying clients want freelancers not agencies

[@AleksanderVitkin]

Hey Matt, I can show you exactly how to get from 11-14 to 30k+, this is my bread and butter, hit me up here, I’ll personally call and help you: www.businessmentor.com

[@igoweiqibaduk8283]

How is it going? Did you double?

[@officialmattbell]

@@igoweiqibaduk8283 never called the guy. I’ve almost doubled.. had a couple of 20K months, but honestly I am over capacity at 20K a month. Pretty much every living minute is spent working, I was much happier earning $10K a month and having more free time to explore side interests.

[@igoweiqibaduk8283]

@@officialmattbell yes, I understand you perfectly. Looks like you don’t have a 100% reliable operations manager, facing same issue.

[@Dekar0s]

@@AleksanderVitkin similar situation here. how would you know the value that you bring to the client? or the ROI of a project? that is very internal info from the company. And as a developer, I automate process but its hard to quantify how much that will impact sales better than what the client already knows

[@jefffairchild1854]

You can put your portfolio on upwork. Maybe they added that feature after this video?

Yes, this is a 2018 video, but there's a difference between a non-upwork portfolio being added to upwork and upwork-reviews ;)

Hi.

[@lonitafa6676]

Is this possible for someone who wants to start in business but has never owned in business before ? How do i build credibility Aleks ?

[@AleksanderVitkin]

Most people who start have never done it before, I think that's the definition of starting (in a way). Worry about credibility later and don't try to be some social media expert from day 1, offer something simple.

[@stefanhansen1401]

I made a profile on Upwork, to see if i could get in touch with some freelancers. im a person that wants to chat or meet up before i decide if he or she is the right person for me and that business im doing, but i couldnt find the option to chat with freelancers, unless upwork got my credit card info. And since i dont trust that site i gave up on upwork for that reason. What if someone make a group on facebook for all freelancers??? so we can get rid of all those "a little to" creative "contact sites..........

[@aeonsleo2]

You can't chat with freelancers there, unless you post a job. You can use LinkedIn to connect
