Hello Upwork comuunity. I am new here and wondering what everyones experience is like? I market and help companies grow their business through social media. Do you guys usually take on a few jobs? Are there any potential long terms jobs here? Id love to hear everyones experience and hoping to find a company to work with soon. Thank you!

Welcome. I've been here 4 years, give or take a few months. 

As I've progressed, about 70% of my clients are now long-term repeat clients. One or two a month are one-off clients. So, yes, you can get long-term clients here. 

If you can build up a reputation, I'm sure you will get long-term repeat clients. To start with, though, concentrate on landing some quality jobs to build up your profile. It's not easy, but it can be done.

Everyone starts afresh here, regardless of their work experience. Prove you can provide quality work time after time and you will flourish.

Good luck!
