Upwork

An overview of 2021 achievements, obstacles, and upcoming 2022 goals for my English transcription service.

It’s that time of year again for a year-end review. Keeping my words from the year-end review of 2018, I focused more on transcription in 2019.

Five months ago, I dipped my toes into the strange world of online freelancing. It was scary, yes, but I think I’m beginning to find the niche and interest that I can focus on. I’m incredibly blessed that I got along with Upwork and its system these past five months. Reading what other people went through in some groups and forums, I’m thankful I didn’t have to go through all of those.

Everybody now knows about Upwork. It was once called oDesk and then merged with Elance until they changed the brand into Upwork. I’m not very well-versed in the history of the making of Upwork, but they have a whole ABOUT US page that you can go to and read. Below is the first month of my Upwork story.
