Book excerpt: What does it REALLY take to be successful on Upwork? The 20% that will create 80% of your results? That's the point of Upwork Essentials -- to teach you that 20%. When I first started on Upwork, everybody told me I had to pay my dues, build my job history with small projects, get to Top Rated status and THEN I could start landing bigger projects and making real money.Instead, the first project I landed was for $2191.78. Not bad for a complete beginner. I landed several more projects like that and hit over $10K in earnings in my first few months. Years later, I decided to teach what I knew about Upwork. THIS book, though, is a distillation of what I did in those first few months to get started so quickly. A method I've taught now to over 6,000 students, many of whom who have seen a dramatic change in their results in just days. Even more, who've applied the principles long-term and built sustainable freelance businesses for themselves using Upwork.Of course, the book is NOT for everyone. If you're looking for "whiz-bang" or "bright" and "shiny", this book isn't for you because it's really about fundamentals. Understanding how Upwork's Search and Suggestion actually works, building your profile to rank higher in that engine and bidding on jobs that fit the overall strategy (instead of focusing solely on the money).If you're new to Upwork or have been on the platform for awhile, but have struggled... this book is for you. I'll teach you my Rank and Relevance Framework to start getting clients right away and build a sustainable Upwork business.

Book excerpt: What would you give to never worry about losing your job? Our world is filled with uncertainty. Record-breaking numbers of people have filed for unemployment, and millions are struggling to make ends meet. Entire industries have been sidelined by unexpected government mandates, and relief programs don''t begin to meet our society''s needs. In this era of unpredictability, how can you ensure a stable income for you and your family? The solution is freelancing.

Josh commits an entire section to understanding the JSS, digging into: How the JSS is calculated Why you don''t have one JSS (you actually have three!) How contracts are weighted differently as they factor into your JSS Avoiding common JSS pitfalls How to overcome JSS problems when they occur Establishing an excellent Job Success Score right away The benefits of a good JSS How to keep your JSS stable After you''ve gotten started on Upwork, the trickiest parts can be finding the right jobs, picking good clients, and maintaining a steady work flow. A substantial portion of Freelancing Foundations is dedicated to: Optimizing your job feed to discover contracts that are perfectly suited to you Using advanced search filters to eliminate jobs you don''t want Knowing the difference between what a freelancer sees and a client''s view How each aspect of your profile affects the way clients search for you Finally, the book concludes with a section on operating successfully as a freelancer. You''ll learn how to: Identify soft skills you should prioritize Interact with even the most difficult clients Understand the culture of freelancing Maximize your rates and give yourself regular raises Set workdays, establish working hours, and create a vacation time policy Josh began freelancing as a last resort, hoping to earn a bit of side cash. A quarter-million dollars later, it''s obvious this last-ditch effort paid off. In Freelancing Foundations, he shows you how to do the same.
