How Upwork and Fiverr Shaped My Grand Slam Offer
Hey Guys,
Imagine waking up every day and having messages from strangers who are ready and interested in buying your stuff.
That is what the gig economy can provide you if done correctly and I’m here to share how it’s been my secret weapon.
Let me take you back a bit. I live in Mexico with my Wife and Son. I work online mostly in the US and Canada, but I am Irish.
Last year I was looking for a new position, but not having a US Visa was a huge challenge getting some appropriate in North America.
So that was when I decided it was time to crack the Upwork code.
After 4 years of dabbling with limited success, I rolled up my sleeves and dove in headfirst.
Forty job applications later, I landed five gigs. The first two were small, almost laughably so, but they were stepping stones.
In those early days, earning less than minimum wage in some countries didn’t matter.
What mattered were the reviews.
With each completed job, a pattern emerged: I excelled in high-end sales and marketing consultancy roles for technology and consultancy firms. Not a shocker, given my background, but a powerful revelation nonetheless.
Fast forward to today, I’ve generated over $10k on Upwork and achieved Expert-Vetted status, placing me in the top 1% of freelancers.
I also helped 1 client 5x his Upwork investment and close €18,000 in 6 months and I will be able to do better, but this is now the benchmark that I can work with! This is also going to be one of my Grand Slam Offers.
My rates have 10 to 20xed since September.
Upwork wasn’t easy—I had to apply four times just to get accepted as a freelancer on Upwork back in the day, they say that there are 10,000 people a day applying and they refuse 95%.
But the Persistence paid off.
Now Upwork isn’t the whole story.
Fiverr operates differently, where gigs reign supreme over hourly work. To succeed on Fiverr, you need to rank well and to rank well, you need reviews.
That’s where you come in.
I’m offering a special deal on Fiverr: a 30-minute consultation on any sales, marketing, or AI topic for just 5% of my normal rate.
This isn’t about making a quick buck—it’s about collecting those valuable reviews to climb the ranks and then it's about automated leads coming in a couple of times a week.
Think of it as an investment in both of our futures, don't worry what the gig says we talk about whatever you want to talk about.
So if you’ve got a burning question about sales, marketing, or AI, let’s jump on a call. Click here to get started: https://www.fiverr.com/s/rE9xlRD
or if you prefer Message me first and we can hatch a plan.
Let's do this together.
