Hi all, I am new to Upwork and excited to get my first contract. I am based in the UK and have worked as a digital marketing expert for the past 10 years now. I have always worked for corporate companies and now have decided to do something different, which brings me here! 

 

I would love to connect with other Upwork freelancers to learn the ropes, get some good advice on how to win work and potentially collaboarate. Feel free to reply to this message or send me a direct message if you wish to network.

 

I am inspired by learning and growing. I am all about self development and experiencing new things. It would be great to meet like minded people and share knowledge and experience. Definitely all for a supportive community!

Hi! I'm Louise. I am a photographer from Sweden. I have worked alone with my photography career for over three years. I have photoshoots with people I know and then post the results on social media and I'd like to learn how to attract other clients and make my own brand bigger on social media.  I am looking for people that want to collaborate on doing photoshoots together.

 

Taking pictures is always something I have liked to do, ever since my dad bought me mig first little camera. In the beginning it was for fun but I've grown to love it more and more and now I really want to make it my business.

My inspiration is the work I do and the results I get. The feeling of getting that good picture or seeing other people appreciate my work, that’s the most exciting part of it.

 

Most of the times I photograph people so below I have attached a photo I personally like very much.

Shefali, if you say you're a writer, you can't use ChatGPT to generate the description on your profile with grammar mistakes. 

If you want to succeed as a freelancer, you need to master a skill and become a specialist in a field you're providing services in. 

Also go through the Academy, because you're a perfect profile for scammers.

 

Good luck!
