Upwork

The thing of it is...

If you're just starting out, you're really going to be up against it.

Persistence and determination will definitely be necessary.

OKAY, that being said...

You can select a maximum of 15 skills.

I strongly suggest you try maxing it out.

This is going to be an intense reconnaissance operation.

What are YOU willing to really work at?

Research, packaging, and trial and error. - This is going to be your life for a minute.
