Why Freelancing Websites Suck

You dream of leaving Corporate America behind. No more cubicle life for you! It's time to set yourself free. So you get started on a freelancing site and wait for the cash and the great opportunities to roll in... but WTH is actually going on?!? Key topics:✔️ Sites like Upwork, Fiverr, and Freelancer.com can be  a decent place to get started and/or to garner some positive reviews and testimonials. They can also suck the life out of you and ding you with fees.  ✔️ At some point, when you are ready to truly grow and scale your business, you will look around and realize: it's nigh on impossible using one of these platforms. You'll probably also feel a tremendous sense of burnout, too.✔️ These sites often promise to have the freelancer's back. If you work, you'll get paid on time every time.  But is that the reality?✔️ Customer support is often terrible. Freelancers and clients sniping back and forth at each other on the feedback pages accomplishes nothing and looks tacky. ✔️ Pricing is usually a race to the bottom. The clients shopping on these platforms are often not your ideal prospects either. Why? Well, TBH, some of them are downright abusive.
