Hello Anton, I wanted to bring to your attention that there appears to be a misspelling in the title. It currently reads as "yearnings" instead of "earnings". Apart from that, I really enjoyed watching your video, great job!

[@levtone]

Omg, thank you so much, mate! I have already corrected it. Appreciate you

Enlightening ⭐ Bro how to know pain points & challenges of clients before building rapport with them in online 1 person business/ freelancing ? Also is it possible to use expertise in 1 thing instead of experience when we are beginners in comparison to competition.. what role does expertise plays in such a scenario to our advantage over the crowd ?? Any book recommendations on this topic..

[@levtone]

Thanks, Mohib. From my experience, you can't theoretically predict clients' pain points. The only way is to learn by practice. It's a bit unfair to the client when you learn about their projects. But you have no choice but to convince them you are capable. It would be wise also to examine available case studies for the projects in your industry. Sometimes you can get really valuable lessons there.

What did you do before you started the Upwork freelancer career?

[@levtone]

I was a co-owner of a local coffee-roasting company Marco Coffee.

@@levtone That's a totally different field! How did you learn youtube production to start freelancing?

[@levtone]

I am learning by practice. My girlfriend is a professional photographer, so I had all the basic equipment to start. Everything is not that hard if you dare to try. But at the same time, I acknowledge that my filmmaking and editing skills are still mediocre-still, a long way to go toward mastery.

[@irinairinovna9230]

@@levtone Thanks for the answers! Your journey is really inspiring! Maybe you can make a video on how to master English? you seem to be good at it

[@levtone]

Thanks. Probably, I will make episode on it. But it mostly will be dedicated to books. The only viable path to excellence is reading. I am reading a lot. I give some book recommendations in the Remote Mate newsletter.

How do you explain yor clients that you are working with assistants?

[@levtone]

It usually takes just a couple of minutes. One or two clients decided not to work with me because of that. I tell the client that I work with a 3 assistants in one office, so our communication is fast and efficient. And we all work in the same style, so you won’t notice the difference.

I quited job last year in May and deicided to do Freelancing. I live In Pakistan where Military Law is imposed (unofficially), unrest in country, power blackout, highest inflation rate in history & corrupt ruling party ( Similar to what is happened in Russia ). I have a daughter to take care of. But I'm struggling 🥺
