It's a straightforward, dependable lead source, and in my humble opinion too many people turn up their noses at the prospect of Upwork revenue (not me!) In this video I'll show you how to succeed on Upwork using the same strategies that got me to nearly $500,000—how I structured my profile, how I applied to jobs, etc. MY SOFTWARE, TOOLS, & DEALS (some of these give me kickbacks—thank you!) 🚀 INSTANTLY: 📧 ANYMAIL FINDER: 👻 PHANTOMBUSTER: ✅ CLICKUP: 📈 RIZE: (use promo code NICK for addn 25% off) WHAT TO WATCH NEXT 🍿 HOW I HIT $25K/MO SELLING AUTOMATION: MY $21K/MO MAKE.COM PROPOSAL SYSTEM: GENERATE CONTENT AUTOMATICALLY WITH AI: ✍🏻 My content writing agency: 🦾 My automation agency: 🕊️ My Twitter/X: 🤙 My blog (followed by the founder of HubSpot!): WHY ME? If this is your first watch—hi, I’m Nick! TLDR: I spent five years building automated businesses with Make.com (most notably 1SecondCopy, a content company that hit 7 figures). Today a lot of people talk about automation, but I’ve noticed that very few have practical, real world success making money with it. So this channel is me chiming in and showing you what *real* systems that make *real* revenue look like! Hopefully I can help you improve your business, and in doing so, the rest of your life :-) Please like, subscribe, and leave me a comment if you have a specific request! Thanks.
