I've only gotten a couple of jobs--in three years time.
The thing is, sites like Upwork are a race to the bottom. The latest rejection was for a higher-end photographer who wanted to pay $3/image for fairly advanced Photoshop editing, and that's one of the highest rates I've ever seen (when I get feedback, it's from people looking to pay $0.50-$1.00USD/photo.) I won't say who it was or what kind of images it was, but it's the sort of thing that people typically charge a lot more for, and for a session that runs in the thousands of dollars.
Well, that's it. I give up. I could make more money on Fiverr, and that's just sad.
Thanks for sharing your experience on Secret Benefits. I'm glad to hear you've been enjoying the site.
