Dear Upwork Community,
I hope this message resonates with you all. Today, I am addressing a critical concern that impacts both freelancers and Upwork's financial health.
The Problem:
The absence of a mobile-friendly time tracking solution on Upwork is causing significant financial setbacks for freelancers and, in turn, affecting Upwork's revenue stream. Many of us are unable to effectively track our work hours through mobile devices, and this is costing us money – but it's also affecting Upwork's bottom line.
The Financial Implications:
Upwork's commission structure is tied to the number of hours tracked. However, without a mobile time tracking option, many freelancers are compelled to use alternative methods or approximate hours. This not only leads to inaccurate reporting but also results in missed commission opportunities for Upwork.
A Collaborative Solution:
I am fervently urging Upwork's development team to create a dedicated mobile app for time tracking. This solution is a win-win: freelancers regain lost earnings, and Upwork safeguards its commission revenue by providing a tool that ensures accurate tracking.
The Bigger Picture:
1. Freelancers' Loss: We are losing money due to inadequate time tracking options on mobile devices.
2. Upwork's Loss: The commission structure is compromised when hours go untracked due to lack of a mobile app.
3. Sustainable Growth: A mobile time tracker aligns Upwork with industry norms, making it more appealing to freelancers and clients alike.
Join the Movement:
I urge all freelancers to rally together and raise our collective voice. Let's urge Upwork to recognize the urgency of this matter and invest in a mobile-friendly time tracking solution that safeguards our earnings and Upwork's revenue.
Act Now:
Please share your thoughts, experiences, and support for this cause.
