Freelancing A business

Anong niche mo bro,
Shopify, AMazon, Ebay Etsy?
Chain supply ka overseas or local suppliers lang ng marketplace ni client mo?

Medyo pangit kase situation ng shipping industry lalo from CHina now dahil sa effect ng pandemic at war.
Sobrang taas ng cost ng logistics transport.


Di sya trial and error bro, it's a business where you offer your expertise,
If you are good with a skill na alam mo pwede mo pagkakitaan dun ka mag start.

I myself is a govt, employee and as well freelancer kaya I believe na everyone can be a freelancer din.
Another fast way to transition is to enroll in a course na makakapagbigay sayo ng deep understanding ng skills na i offer mo and hone it.

Kaya mo yan.


NIce boss, Actually the skill that you possess now is more than enough to start immediately.
If you can create system na pwede integrate sa mga API like amazon that can automate reports and present in a visualization like in the Google Data Studio, napaka dami mo makukuha client na ρrémíùm nyan..

Seems like you have great skills in programming and you must immediately start na po.
May kilala nga ako ng web developer lang ng mga basic website, and lalaki maningil ng retainer fees eh.

If you have background in data analysis, you can start as data analyst, back up that skill with a certification from coursera o udemy or from LinkedIn, Im sure you will meet your goal the soonest.
Thanks man, overseas supply chain forte ko. Right now undergoing ako training ng Amazon FBA Master class. Sya napili ko focus dahil pansin ko para siyang hotcake sales, sa kanya ko gagamitin skills ko sa supply chain.
 
Good Morning sayo TS! I've been freelancing for 4 years now. When i was just starting, i subscribed and submitted proposals to many different platforms like Upwork, OLJ, Freelancer, etc but i landed my first contract in Upwork. I'd had a few clients since then, but now I'm down to just one because one of them asked me to work for full-time.. Arbitrage - Online advertising yung field ko ngayon. If there's a place to start, i definitely recommend Upwork.

Contrary dun sa first comment sa thread na ito, I strongly disagree na swertihan ang freelancing. It's not. It's pure hard work, consistency and determination. Before ako naging freelancer, may day job ako sa start up tech company tapos during weekends/holidays may part-time job ako sa mga events, nag se-setup kami ng mobile playground sa mga kiddie parties and then when i'm at home or during lunch break sa work nag su-submit ako ng proposals sa Upwork until finally ma-land ko yung first client ko. I wouldn't attribute to "swerte" what i am and where i am right now because it was my determination that lead me to this path. My goal was to be a freelancer and i wanted it so bad that i didn't stop until i became one. 😊


I'll just leave this here.

Well said sir. Salamat sa encouragement. Amazon arbitrage ka ba and dumaan ka sa formal or dating forte mo na talaga advertising?

Mostly social media, different channels like FB, Twitter, Pinterest, Google. Wala talaga ako experience when i started. 1 hour per day lang talaga dati yung work ko sa existing client ko ngayon. So i always make sure na consistent ako and wala talagang errors. Then, inaral ko yung mga ibang projects nila outside sa given projects sakin hanggang sa slowly binibigyan na ako ng ibang projects and then nag i-increase na yung hours ko. Until they've decided na full time yung ibigay sakin.

I hope you're in a good place din TS.
 
mahirapan po ba mag amazon ppc? tsaka may ma rrecommend kapo bang yt channel for interview about amazon ppc, nag dadalawang isip po kasi ako kung mag eenroll po ako sa sandbox kung kakayanin koba maging isang ppc, wala papo kasi ako experience tsaka nag stop po ngayon. 3rd yr nasana ako bsit po.

Anything you are passionate about..

If you have talent in Arts, you can be a graphic designer,
If you are good in office apps,
pwede ka mag General VA,
madami yan meron Ecommerce VA
anu yun lods ahahah wala kasi ako ibang skills.
 
Hi,

If you are interested to learn Amazon as a niche, these are my recommendations.

FB Groups
AVA PH - Focus nila is Online Arbitrage/wholesale arbitrage
Course Price: P1500-P2000

Sandbox VA- Amazon A-Z, FBA, PPC
Course Price: P3000

OFP- Amazon A-Z, Basic Seller Central Navigation
Course Price: 8000-10000


Hehe mahal talaga kay Amazon Nation,
same lang din naman content with OFP and Sandbox VA..

Goodluck po
Online arbitrage ka sir or PL ni Amazon?
 
Freelancer here, maganda remote jobs ang puntiryahin mo especially mga VA bongga per hour niyan.

Payo ko lang sa mga startup freelancer dito at bebengga bilang VA try to search client's within new zealand, canada and US.

And tips lang pwedeng mameke nang resume kung walang expi, but kailangan mong panindigan na kaya mo yung nasa resume mo, example naka lagay sa resume mo nag work ka as chat support in amazon and ilagay mo sa job description ay you're just dealing customers basic inquiries but pag escalated na i coconnect mo sila sa call. Simple but justifiable. May example akong resume nakalagay chat support ganyan job description ko and ang pinaka importante dun is part time lang and remote.

Sobrang daming kailangan nang VA, like my client although commision base lang siya malaki naman, minimum of 50$-100$ ang bayaran namin kada costumer na maibibigay ko sakanya na bibili sa goods niya. Start up company siya, nakita ko siya sa indeed new zealand.

Wala akong calls na ginagawa sadyang tyagaan lang nang pag hahanap.

Kaya sa mga nag sasabing swertehan lang freelancing... You're missing a lot of potential clients.

Yes bro,
Actually everything depends on your level of eagerness to learn, may mga free resources jan sa YT,,

But based sa outlines at tutorial flow may pros and cons ang lahat ng program,,

sa OFP, we have assignments to do and needed to submit which is a good way to learn and apply what is taught. sa Sandbox naman is more on detailed video demonstration as well mga reporting pieces and advance best practices na magagamit mo talaga sa actual Amazon task so based sa 2, I would personally recommend Sandbox VA.

sa pag aapply, diskarte mo na yun..
watch YøùTùbé tutorials and interview tips..
really helpful .. will try Sandbox VA
 
anu yung general va lods?
jack of all trades in short.. hehehe.
If you really want to pursue a freelancing career. better specialize in more demanding technical skills para yun ang offer mo sa clients abroad..

Hi, Yeah tama ka...


It's more on being professional and be proactive sa available task at resources sa internet.
I am a full time government employee too but I add freelancing skills to maximize my time and earn additional as well. Mas okay si freelancing kase you can choose your employer if you are really competent in your niche and really valuable with the skills that you can offer.

IF I want to, I can get 3-5 clients simulataneously kase I know what I can offer so tama ka na di talaga ito field para sa umaasa lang sa luck..

Best of success to your career path.

Good luck to all of us

I've been doing art commissions for 3 years. And yes, medyo saturated na yung market pero hindi pa rin mahirap humanap ng clients. Dapat alam mo lang kung saan ka mag-aadvertise ng portfolio mo.

Amazon PPC is a higher level po and you won't be hired without the foundation of how Amazon listing is created and how they rank on Amazon algoritm.


I would suggest to try to enroll in crash course covering the basics and and must know sa field..


di porke in demand si Amazon PPC dun kana mag jump kagad..

Take note po na pera ni client yung imamanage mo and every clicks will be charge to his account so they won't trust newbies with this field po..

Pasubscribe ako sa thread TS. Also trying to start my freelance. Bookkeeping/Accounting ang niche. I'm going out from a small public accounting firm and will go straight to freelancing na. If ever you need help din sa BIR filing, I may help since ito ang field ko now, Accounting/Taxation/Auditing. If may clients din kayo na need bookkeeper, baka pwede magparefer, hehe. I'm still in the process of building up my profile pa naman.
 
hello po. gusto ko po sanang humingi ng tips regarding sa freelancing.
i can consider myself a graphic artist/designer pero di po ako professional kaya di ako marunong mag rates sa mga gawa ko.
gumagawa po ako ng mga logos, banners, usually gaming related po
