Good evening everyone, my English name is Snow and I come from Vietnam. I've worked in early education for nearly 10 years as an istructor and very new to Upwork. I understand that there are lots of thing to learn here, especially I need to work very hard to have my first job. I'm spending my time to read through those works which are available so that I can find out which will suit me. Hope that I can get the job here, earn online and have more time with my kids.

Hello! I am the owner/operator of KPC Unlimited, a marketing agency specializing in small business, specifically food related buisnesses. Most of my current clients are food trucks, although I also have a party rental business, a golf course (that has a restaurant) and a bakery. KPC Unlimited is built on the belief that small businesses thrive when we support each other, and because of that, I work hard to adapt to your business's needs, help others network and provide opportunities for bartering.

  • Hello there! My name is Crystal, and for the longest time I was a waitress as well as a restaurant manager! I'm near St Louis
  • I am hoping to learn from other community members their experiences with this platform, and where I can get a job. Due to some recent catastrophic events, I am in dire need of employment. Plus I have nothing but time on my hands, and I'm a very hard worker when I'm employed.
  • My biggest inspiration is my three beautiful children. They have been through a lot, yet they are still so determined, happy, compassionate, empathetic, and strong. I look up to them for that. And it inspires me to show them that with some determination, as well as persistence, hard work , and reliability you can become whatever you want in life.

 

I really do hope someone will assist me in finding work!

My dear Crystal, I am touched by your story and give kudos to your
resilience. Be it as it may upwork, and all other freelancing site, require
that you have a skill to market online that's why freelancers are referred
to as TALENTS. I will suggest you look in the direction of developing an
appropriate skill as no one can help you much in finding work here without
one. Do have a great weekend. Eyam O.

Hi everyone,

I'm Manas RS, a freelancer from India. I just joined Upwork. I write content, ads and copy for businesses and brands. I finished my certification and now I'm setting up my Upwork profile. I want to find my first client.

I want to learn three things from you all: 1. Your experiences, 2. Connect with you, and 3. Learn from your mistakes.

I inspire myself because I once missed a chance to find my potential. Now, on Upwork, I want to work and rediscover my potential by helping others.

 

Thank you Andrea for this opportunity to introduce myself here.

Digital ManasRS.
