The $1 Million Freelancer

Doug Shaw started freelancing on Upwork almost a decade ago and recently surpassed $1 million in total earnings.

Per a recent profile…

Doug has been working full time for Upwork clients as a Google Ads expert but also advises on funnel marketing and development using YouTube, TikTok and Linked-In.

Sounds like Doug taught himself Google Ads and was charging $14/hour for his first jobs. Now he charges up to $100/hour 📈

One way Doug keeps the work flowing is via follow-ups with past clients…

a few weeks after I have finished work for a client, I will message them to see how things are going and whether there is anything else I can help them with – and there often is!
