🙈 Getting over Upwork?
If you're reading this, you've either thought about ditching Upwork or you've been forced to. And yeah, it stings. For many of us the platform was our first big break, our comfort zone, our lead machine.
The Breaking Point
Roman's agency had 30-plus active clients, millions earned, solid margins. One glitchy suspension landed before his ID-verification deadline and the entire shop collapsed. That's what over-reliance on any single platform feels like.
Platform Snapshots
- Toptal - Brutal vetting, but one $10k/mo contract can anchor your year.
- Contra - No fees, no games, perfect for showcasing creative work.
- Malt - Europe's marketplace: big brands, polite budgets, less spam.
- Worksome - Where enterprises shop; slow onboarding, serious cash.
- Direct Sales - Cold email + LinkedIn + referrals. You own the funnel and the relationship.
Homework
- Create a backup profile and the second agency account
- Transfer the ownership of the main agency to the secondary account via Upwork support
