Episode description

"Sana may work from home na hindi lang online teaching."

This is what Debbie thought to herself as she explored the working from home option to be with her son.

Her husband is an OFW and he wanted her to personally take care of their only child at that
time.

She tried applying in Rarejob at 51talk but...

"pero lagi ang reason na hindi ako matanggap yong speed daw internet connection ko."

She was forced to resign from her job when her eldest got sick.

And before the effectivity of her resignation, she decided to join the VA Bootcamp.

In the 4th week of going through the lessons, she got hired hourly for a research job
and it lasted for 6months.

"Masaya na ako non because I was hired with no interview. Kaya sabi ko mag-reresign na talaga kasi, totoo pala ito."

In a span of 4-5months, she got 12 projects mostly with Upwork.

And right now, she’s making P115k a month fixed (gross monthly income) for foreign-based clients and 20k fixed for a local-based client.

Wow!

On September 8, 2021, at 6 PM, she’ll share & inspire us with her journey.

What made her pursue freelancing?

How did she find her niche?

Where did she get her clients?

See you there!
