You need to build up a portfolio and show you can actually do the work for prices you're after. The kind of people who also often use platforms like upwork have their limitations.But here's what is good about it: Freelancing always has a client, unlike making a blog or a YouTube channel or product you're always working for a client who will pay for your product. Which is nice.</blockquote>
