Show notes
Platforms like eLance and oDesk can get a bad reputation. I personally have fought this reputation for a while given that I personally kickstarted my freelance career with oDesk.
While I hit what I thought was ceiling with these platforms, I was proven wrong by Danny Margulies.
Danny has earned over $100k in the past year on eLance as a freelance writer.
Yes, you read correct. $100k in a year as a writer.
Danny defies all of the myths and expectations that exist around these freelance platforms and makes an incredible income charging an average rate of $125-135 per hour.
In this episode, Danny shares how he reached the level he did and what others can do to supplement their income or launch their careers with eLance.
