Hi All; My name is Aileen and I work in the field of Online Teaching, located in La Union, Philippines. I specialize in online teaching, translation, voice-over editing, advertising, and podcast production.  I am also open to sharing ideas and potentially finding job opportunities through interacting with other members on this forum. I believe that collaboration and exchanging knowledge with others can help us grow both professionally and personally. So, I'm hoping to learn from the experiences and expertise of other members and contribute to the community by sharing my own ideas and knowledge. I find inspiration in my desire to be successful, but also from the people in my life who support and motivate me. My family, friends, and mentors have all played a role in shaping my goals and encouraging me to pursue my passions. In particular, I'm inspired by those who have overcome challenges and achieved great things through hard work and determination. It reminds me that anything is possible with the right mindset and effort.

My name is Shehla Gull, and I'm excited to join the Upwork Community! I work as a lead generator in the field of Lead genration. It's a fascinating and dynamic field, and I'm eager to connect with fellow professionals who share similar interests and experiences.

I'm located in Pakistan, and I'm thrilled to be a part of this community that brings together diverse talents from around the globe. Networking and learning from others is crucial in the lead generation industry, so I'm hoping to engage with members who can share their insights, strategies, and best practices.

I'm particularly interested in learning more about effective lead generation techniques, how to optimize lead conversion rates, and the latest tools and technologies used in the industry. It would be wonderful to connect with experts who have successfully generated high-quality leads and to exchange ideas on improving lead generation processes.

In terms of inspiration, I'm motivated by professionals who have achieved remarkable success in lead generation, such as [Inspirational Lead Generator]. Their ability to consistently identify and attract valuable leads is truly inspiring, and I aspire to learn from their expertise and apply their strategies in my own work.

I'm looking forward to connecting with all of you, sharing insights, and contributing to the success of the Upwork Community. Let's collaborate, learn, and excel together!

Best regards, Shehla Gull

Hello Upwork! 

 

My name is Jen. I work from home in San Francisco, and I'm a longtime writer, editor, and beta reader. 

 

I have ten years' corporate proofreading experience, as well as a writing career. 

 

What I really need to know right now is the very basics of Upwork; I've taken tons of the tutorials and done my share of forum reading, but when it comes right down to it, only today have I figured out how to submit a proposal! 

 

I have never had someone get back to me and I have never arranged a conversation with a potential client. Do they arrange that or do I? 

 

Also, do freelancers send their own contracts even for very small, short jobs? 

 

Any help appreciated. Thanks!

- Jen, San Francisco

Hello all,

 

My name is Michael Ouellette, and I'm from Bemidji, Minnesota. I currently work as a home health aide taking care of a family member with health issues, but I've been a teacher, firefighter, security guard, construction worker, and a long list of other things. I'm hoping to learn how to make some extra money with my writing; I also have written a non-fiction book that I'm currently trying to get published. I try to take inspiration and lessons from everyone, and from the whole journey of life.
