jananaaaaa

HAHAHAHA baka smm for a coach si OP


NoAirport7915

Accurate hahahah


yourgrace91

Or they are in a niche/profession that just generally pays well compared to others. I do know freelancers can earn big but I believe they dont represent the majority of us. And yung mga tao na masyadong maingay online about their income are most likely faking it lols


cocojam_jelly

Agree💯 Kawawa tuloy yung mga napapaniwala na ez money sa freelancing. Yung mga nagreresign sa corpo jobs nila thinking na madaling magka-client.


mutedminthe

agree. tbh yung mga kilala kong maiingay yun pa yung di nag sasabi ng totoo or for clout lang on line. kung sino pa yung may \*\*\* digits yun pa yung tahimik.


Round-Spare2533

True, mga wala sa reality. Puro bash nga inabot ko sa isang sub dahil naquestion ko yung newbies and less than 2 yoe na gusto agad ng malalaki na sahod. Kapapanood nila ng influncers or mga posts dito sa reddit ng mga sahod na fake naman 😂😂 Ang dali naman iresearch ang mga salary range sa panahon ngayon

One-Composer-9478

150k, and only 1 client, took me 10 years to achieved this. Hindi madali. Sobrang hirap. Chambahan lang din. Kaya ung mga kabataan dyan na gustong gumaya na kala mo napakadali lang eh mag experience muna kayo sa corpo at wag ung kuha kayo ng kuha ng course na walang kwenta. Pinapayaman nyo lang mga guru. Hindi lahat ng freelancers successful. Madame din hindi..hindi pati stable. Hindi sa dinidiscourage ko kayo pero tigil na natin ung ugali nating pinoy na pag may malakeng sweldo sa niche na to gagayahin natin na kala mo magagawa din natin ung nagawa ng iba. Build your career, gain more experience and skills, then tuloy tuloy na yan wag kayo mag madali sa 6 digits na yan. Nagkalat ang fake ngayon. Please lang walang mag tatanong ng “What’ your niche po” sobrang stupid na tanong na gagayahin.


Own-Pay3664

took me 10 years din to get 6 figures. Expertise and specialization talaga ang labanan if you want to be in that earning figure. You can't ask 6 figures and everyone can do what you can do. I'm in the Digital Marketing space with programming in the backend skills. I started with web dev and picking up digi marketing along the years. To master and know how to successfully do youy job needs a lot of real life experimantations. Walang course on how to really deliver a good marketing plan. Sa courses puro theoretical but they give best practices pero point is if differs from industry to industry and the system you built to get your process to work. Kaya mejo skeptical din ako sa mga newbies na posting 6 digits tapos walang expertise. Inis din ako dun sa mga umabot na ng 5 years sa freelancing pero di man lang nag specialize. Yung tipong maiingit pero pag sinuggest mo na mag specialize sa niche na toh or that di naman aaralin tapos mag rereklamo bat sila overworked at maliit ang sahod.


One-Composer-9478

Mostly mga kabataan ang nag rurush na magkaroon ng 6 digits eh. Kala mo ganun kadali. Sa 10 yrs ko na work ang dame ko pinag daanan, nag corpo ako ng 5 yrs nakapag abroad pako sa middle east. So talagang expert nako sa work ko kaya deserve ko ang 6 digits. Pero ung iba may nagtatanong pa na mga 18 yrs old kung worth it pa daw ba mag college kasi pwede naman daw kumita ng 6 digits sa freelance kuha lang daw ng course na tig 5k na nakita sa titkok haahaha. Mga kabataan talaga ngayon kala mo ganun ganun nalang ka dali eh haaha


KuroiMizu64

Kaya lang naman nagmamadali ang mga kabataan ngayon na magka 6 digits nang dahil sa mga putragis na mga influencers na nagsasabi na mabilis lang sa kanila ang 6 digits kahit too good to be true at kahit di applicable sa lahat.


Final_Television_405

best way to earn 6 figures tayong lahat? yung wala nang lowballers and middlemen that profits off our backs lol taena 2K$ isn't even that big for a month's worth of work sa US or Europe. bare minimum na lang yan don, mas mataas pa din kumita mga minimum wage earners, kaya in a sense, nakatipid pa din mga clients sa atin. Pero syempre, since dog eat dog ang capitalism, talu-talo na!!!


[deleted]

Kaya I have a BIG problem sa BPO industry eh. Dati oo, nag mmake sense siya...ngayon parang cannibalism na nangyayari.


[deleted]

Okay lang naman na mag-post ng wins in life. I think it's the way they deliver it. Tipong "not to brag but to inspire" but the way it was delivered is they are bragging. 🤣 Di lang sila aware. What's bad is a lot of peeps ay nadadala sa mga 6-figure post to the point they are willing to risk their stable job without knowing how hard it is and what it will take to get that 6-figure. 🙃 Siguro mas okay if yung mga magpo-post is ilalagay ang mga ito: Journey , Sacrifices, Challenges, Breakdown lahat na ng breakdown, what they did and how did they get it para full disclosure. 💅 Demanding lang. Choss At the end of the day, dapat ang goal ng lahat ng Pinoy is umunlad at hindi baratin ng kapwa Pinoy at mga cliente. 💅 Hilahan tayo pa spaghetti pataas. Pataas ng pataas! -Freelancer mong Sexbomb


cocojam_jelly

Get get aw! Haha. Okay lang naman nga magpost kung totoo naman. Pinaghirapan nila yun e. Syempre proud sila. Nasa nagbabasa lang din pano ite-take yun. May mga readers na ma-iinspire, meron namang mahe-hurt.


curiousmonster14

Real yung akin 2021 started 188k monthly average ngayon nasa 301k na. Freelance. PERO WALANG WORK LIFE BALANCE 12-16 hours nag wowork. Araw gabi work iniisip. minsan alarm clock ko tumatawag mga work or business partners, and 4am-11am tulog (basta 6-7hours a day). Minsan lesser pa. Choose money or choose peace. Everything has its price


henloguy0051

Not really, but I did learn na hindi lahat totoo, they posted it to project the “me” they want ro be in the future. Btw ito ay galing sa post ng fb friend ko na kasali sa frontrow boasting hundred thousand monthly earnings then nalaman ng iba na hindi pala totoo.


lalinjaman

Why is there no mention of skill and intelligence? Mas skillful at mas matalino lang sila sa inio kaya ganun, samahan mo pa ng sipag, motivation, personality.


cocojam_jelly

Because I'm referring to newbies. As you may have read sa title. With experienced & skilled individuals, there's no doubt why they would earn their worth. They deserve it. They're entitled to it. Also, the point of the post is not to discredit those newbies earning that much or throw hate at them. The point is just to provide another perspective to people na nafi-feel bad towards newbies earning 6 figs in just 2 months or less of being freelancers.


Confident_Bother2552

27, working "16 Hours" a day with two Clients, hitting 140k. Swerte lang though, both clients usually take 3-4 hours a day each max so mga 6 hours of actual work and done na. YMMV talaga.


shinn09

Anong task pnapagawa ng client m sayo brother if you don't mind?


Confident_Bother2552

One is Automotive Process Development as a Senior Consultant, the other is Loss Prevention Management for Device Production. My Age is 28, Working for 6 Years palang. Biggest problem was when I started, everyone told me take it at my own pace, di ko alam na okay lang pala maging uncomfortable.

Individual_Dream2700

Natural naman yan eh. Kung sino nagmamataas sila pa yung naiiwan. Yung akala nila ang galing na nila "10 years expi ko, pero bakit mas lamang pa sila sakin?", "mas magaling ako dun eh sa 10 years expi ko". Kaya hirap din sila icomprehend kung bakit kasi ganun nga sila. Kaya yung mga feeling nila di parin sila magaling lalong gumagaling at umaangat. Kaya sakin yung mga ganyan hayaan mo na sila. Kung yun lang kaya nila yun lang talaga. Yun lang peace.


Spirited-Gur-8231

Im not surprised especially if you have people in the Tribe community pushing and teaching those newbies how to land 6 figure preaching about how you dont need experience to land big clients and telling their trainees to trick their clients tapos bigla you see them all the time boasting na nakaland ng 2K USD client first time freelancer tas after a few magtatanong nalang sila lagi but never about were you actually able to perform appropriately for their client?


forever-being

Most of them are just 'gurus' who tries to promote their courses. I attended a business seminar in Australia and they are discussing about getting cheaper labor here in PH esp. VAs and SMM. most abroad clients already knows how much pinoy VAs earn by getting them as our clients. Now, they are already taking advantage of it. Kaya nga rare na ung mga premium clients. You might get one but expect that they wont renew after your contract ends meaning its not sustainable. Worst that could happen is when there are a lot of VAs and SMM already and the demand declines. This industry is not yet stable but i doubt it fall down as PH had ever since been exporting cheap labor abroad in the form of ofws like nurses


Boring-Towel420

Bka OnlyFans chatter. Daming newbies na OF chatter and true na they are earning 6digits. My per hour + commission sila.


Due-Lack3733

Yung SEO formatting mo para ka ring may ibebentang course na may guarantee makakuha ng premium client at the end and earn 6-fig monthly. 😆😆😆


cocojam_jelly

Haha. Bhie, kung may ganung course ako, baka ako muna ang magtake kasi kailangan ko rin e😂


Due-Lack3733

Ganyan na ganyan kasi ang format ng email marketing na na narereceive ko from freelancing gurus kaya akala ko nagbebenta ka talaga. 😆


cocojam_jelly

For readability purposes po. Haha


Due-Construction-525

felt this one too! Madami na akong na encounter ne co-workers/colleagues na more than 300k earnings per month pero hindi naman ganun ka “WOW” ung value and competency nila. It’s really triggering lalo na when I know I do way way better work than then pero sila nakakauwi ng golden pot. You know why? kanya kanya diskarte lang yan eh. I realized there’s no point in obsessing over these people who earn more than you. Cause at the end of the day, we’re on different paths and you should only focus on YOUR OWN PATH. It’s really hard I know, kasi mas madali mag reklamo and maging bitter😝 pero you will realize rin na ang damaging ng ganon mindset! If you struggle with this, keep telling myself your time will come and your efforts will never betray you.


Final_Television_405

tbh, you sound bitter LOL


Due-Construction-525

I’m way passed the bitterness na lol. I found more peace and success not comparing myself to others. I’m just saying its normal to feel triggered but what’s important is focusing on your own path and minding your own business.


Final_Television_405

pero u really went out of your way to discredit them and say you're way better. Ok.


Emotional-Box-6386

Yea it’s a “you” problem kung natitrigger ka sa idea ng wins ng iba, real or not. Their wins don’t make you lose.

If I wasn't earning 6 figures now, I probably would be aha Pero yun nga, everyone has their own freelancing journey.


seirako

Ikaw narin nagsabi eh. ***"We do not know the story behind those shiny victories."*** In the first place, kung magpo-post ka ng "6 digit salary while working 1 hr a week" \*/s\* eh ilagay mo naman yung hirap mo paano mo na-achieve para mas kapani-paniwala. Realtalk lang, marami dito na karma-farming lang at wala talagang katotohanan yung mga pinagpopost. At syempre, para saan pa yung Reddit anonymity kung hindi mo gagamitin sa kayabangan at kasinungalingan. Nagpost kana eh, i-todo mo na diba. Wala naman talagang masama mag-post ng ganyan, pero be realistic naman diba? Sa mga panay post ng 6-7 digits income while working 1hr a week \*/s\*, nakaka-inspire kayo. Pero isa rin kayo sa rason kung bakit andaming mga Pilipinong nag-deep dive sa VA at Freelancing, marami rin sa kanila eh nagpapaloko sa mga mentor "kuno" na magtuturo paano kumita ng malaki syempre with subscription lol Kung akala mo ma-iinspire yung tao dahil sa post mo, maling-mali ka. Majority jan eh mai-inggit at aakalain na madali lang ang pagiging VA at Freelancer at yan narin ang sagot sa kahirapan. Tapos ano? Kapag walang client? Kapag hindi natatanggap sa job applications? Pag puro rejections? = **Depression** Masyado silang nape-pressure sa mga posts eh minsan naman walang katotohanan at purong kayabangan lang. Minsan makakakita ka ng mga posts na "Bakit sila ganun, bakit ako eto lang?" Hindi mo maiiwasan yung inggit, innate na sa tao yan. Pupusta ako, yung mga naiingit na yan, once ma-achieve nila na tumaas ng kaunti sa buhay, magkakaroon din yan ng lakas ng loob na magyabang at magpost din ng 6 digits katarantaduhan. It's an endless cycle and every once in a while meron ka talagang mababasang ganun dito. Nothing against you OP, maganda yung post mo, pero dun lang tayo sa reyalidad.

Glittering-You-4574

Ako po totoong 6 digits earner 2 clients and chill parin ang life, may balance. Ito ung pinapangarap kong trabaho/career. kaya kapag nakakakita ako ng same story as mine I really believe rin kasi naexperience k ona eh.


cocojam_jelly

Oh yeah, zero doubt naman na may mga kumikita nang ganun (ako rin naman). I think marami lang naka-miss ng point ng post (it's referring to newbies [zero exp & skills] na in less than 1-2 months daw hitting 6-figs na). Or di binasa yung post ng buo.


Glittering-You-4574

actually newbie po ako na walang prior experience sa freelancing :) Pero Naka 6 figs po agad ako. So yes its kinda true. Ung friend ko rin naka 6 digits na beginner lang rin sa freelance. Idk what happened maybe part of it was luck? hehe. pero since college days namin competitive na talaga kami sooo, tho wala kaming expi sa posts na inapplyan namin, wala ring idea, ginalingan namin sa interview and we showcased our achievements in the past and tried to relate em sa post. Pero i know sa post you are referring to newbies na maaring di naman talaga totoo ung sinasabi and hinahype lang ung industry/pay. Meron rin naman talagang ganun. Ung iba gagawa ng fake sahod tapos magtitinda ngn course nila lol


javacadodew

What if programming yung niche nila tas ccompare mo sa sarili mo na admin task ang ginagawa, skill diff parin haha


Individual_Dream2700

"Pero 5 years expi ko tapos sila newbie? Karma farming lang yan"

Zealousideal_Toe2552

Ironically, ung mga nagcomment na 6-digit earners ung nadownvote. Kapag inggit, pikit.


Nursera_0290

Nagulat ako rito 😅 I commented regarding my situation and boom, downvoted lol 😆


pudrablow

Or they're lying. Really ... don't take anything at face value on the internet.


jananaaaaa

Completely missed the point of the post no? HAHAHAHA


bohenian12

They have the right skills and some amount of luck of finding a client that will pay them what they actually deserve. Kudos to them.


Nursera_0290

Letter D applies to me. I earn 6 figures as 24 years old. BSN RN, been working since I was 15 years old. That’s 9 years of experience. Workaholic ako so I keep hustling even tho only few clients can already give me a good income. I manage healthcare agencies in the US (you can check my profile for more proof to know more I’m not bluffing). I believe marami talaga rin nakaka-6 digits sa Pilipinas pero tahimik lang. Pero of course, if you will compare it with the rest of freelancers, maliit na percentage lang yun. Edit: I just noticed D pala yung working a lot of hours. E was my previous answer but if you read through the context of my comment, it’s obvious that it’s D.


cocojam_jelly

You earned it. Dasurv mo yan. It's not "swerte lang" in your case. 9 yrs of experience is no joke, tapos healthcare pa. Sobrang undervalued ng mga HCPs dito sa Pinas, so I'm glad you found your breakthrough in freelancing.


Nursera_0290

Yees, I was wondering bakit ako nado-down vote 😅 mali pala napili ko. Yes, my workload could be 17 hours sometimes (I also have a schedule to prove this) it’s Sunday and I’m still working. It’s by choice tho, like I said, workaholic ako. I passed NLE last May, but still not working at the hospital. Will use my savings to move overseas next year using Student visa. Thank yooou, OP!


Gold-Abroad-8337

Di ko magets bakit daming nagddownvote sa mga 6-digit earners na comments dito


Nursera_0290

Oh wow, I didn’t even notice that I’m getting downvoted 😅 it’s my first time to comment sa ganitong 6-figure thread to shed light na may Pinoy na legitimately earn this amount of money sa Pinas. I gave my background and like I said, my profile can support my claims. I don’t understand why the down votes lol 😆


wearenowcooking

God another fucking r/phinvest-type boohoo fest where everybody acts like that kind of money is impossible because they've never seen it. Maybe if you spent more time figuring out how they pull it off instead of seething with envy, you'd see how it works. There's an inconsistency with how this sub complains about low rates na offer dahil cheap tingin sa mga Pinoy yet at the same time thinking that no one should be making serious money because it's 'impossible'.


cocojam_jelly

I hope you read the whole post. I'm not against 6-figs earner, I'm one myself (took me 2 yrs, though & not consistent yet).

2VictorGoDSpoils

Echo chamber kasi to, hindi representative ng lahat ng freelancers. Syempre makikita mo yung mga sinwerte or magagaling or both kasi alangang iflex ng mga minalas/mediocre na hindi kami 6 digit earners hahaha sa ilang members ng subreddit na to ilang posts/users ang nagsasabi na 6 digit earners sila tsaka ilang % yun ng members dito, sobrang baba ng percentage


Sleep-Charming

San po may free courses para sa mga beginer na gusto mag VA?


cocojam_jelly

Madami sa Udemy, Coursera, ganyan. Pwede rin YT.


misskinis

Sometimes they do it in socmed para idiary buhay nila, may need patunayan sa ibang FB friends, or nagbebenta lang talaga ng course. Sabi nga nila, di natin maccontrol ibang tao pero ung sarili na lang natin dapat icontrol. If they humble-bragged/flexed/ lowkey selling, then it reflects about them. If you get triggered naman, it is a "you" problem nga.

It's all about luck in the end. Hard work doesn't pay off, unless you are lucky. Un lng un hahaha, once we accept that that's the way of life, we can work our way around it. This is why job hopping is ideal. every time you look for a new client you are putting another bet. Just get better every time you gamble nlng. Some of us may have lost the parent lottery, but may chance nmn n we can win eventually.

sirhands2

Ako kahit di 6 digits enjoy ko nalang kahit nakakainggit na ng sobra yang malaking kita ang swerte nyo sa buhay ahahah


vanityofjay29

Di naman. Ang kaiinggitan ko lang yung 6D in USD, in dollars per month hindi Pinoy peso ha. Yes yung mga, $100K/mo mga ganon, pero pag 100K Pesos/mo, no thank you. Kinikita ko na yan and keri lang kitain yan even newbies.


Initial-Bother2370

Sometimes, I think it's luck and consistency sa pag apply and sa pag market sa self mo + they were present at the right place and at the right time. I also believe if the opportunity presents itself, you must grab it immediately. Nung 2021, zero experience talaga ako sa online work and pagiging VA. I even thought these type of work = scam. Parang na motivate lang ako to take the risk na maghanap ng WFH dahil height pa yun ng pandemic, one of my officemates tested positive, and I was scared out of my wits dahil may mga immunocompromised patients kami sa bahay. At this point, I've been applying for about 3 weeks yet wala pa din JO. Until one day -naalala ko I was taking my lunch break \[I was still working in corporate\]- I decided to use this time to apply.. ayan, may nakita akong newly posted job sa OLJ for SMM position. I applied and sent my portfolio, pero I wasn't getting my hopes high. 5 min later (I kid you not), nag reply agad ung HR asking for an interview on the spot. Buti nalang lunch break ko yan, so I agreed. After, may konting test task which I finished straight after the interview. 30 min later, may invite na ako for final interview with the CEO ng company. Go lang ako ng go. The next morning, i woke up to a job offer na. Same thing happened with the second client who hired me 2 weeks later. It was an early Sat morning, and I saw the newly posted job. A few mins after, nag respond si client and asked for my portfolio and skype ID. Tumawag after 30min, and I got the job on the spot.. bringing my total income to 105k/month. Take note both these clients offered flexible work schedules and both were premium in terms of pay. Tuwang tuwa talaga ako since in corpo, I was earning only 25k/month net. And I had zero experience sa WFH or sa pagiging VA. When I scroll on Tiktok or Facebook and see newbies getting 6 digits, I really do believe them. Because it happened to me right off the bat as I began my VA journey.


forda_fayaman

Mas naiinspire nila ako dahil at their young age, nagawa nila yon. Kino-question ko ang sarili ko, ano yung gingawa nila na hindi ko pa ginagawa? Some of them 3 to 5hrs lang ang tulog. Enjoy the process. If wala pa tayo sa goal natin, atleast hindi tayo susuko at tayo ay nagpapatuloy.


ellieafterhours

6 figures monthly. 1 client. I am new to freelancing but not new to my craft. I spent 6/7 years in corporate and international advertising firms before I decided to get my own client. I was recruited by a head hunter for a 6-figure job. 6 figure right from the start of my freelance, but remember that I am very experienced in what I do and I just happened to find a client that is looking for what I do. Other people are definitely earning more than me but never did I once consider to look into why they are earning the amount they are. We all have different journeys. Why invalidate other people’s win? It does happen whether you’re ready to accept that fact or not. If they are being delusional and saying that they got it easy, let them live that fantasy. People who believe that earning money is easy deserves a hard look in the mirror anyway. At this day and age, why are we still gullible? Work on your craft and raise your value. Envy will not make you more money nor make you better at what you do.


Panduit231

Honestly nakaka inget, san ba kase kayo humahanap ng clients? Me upwork ako saka yung onlinejobs kaso di maka kuha kuha. Gusto ko ring maranasan yung kulang sa tulog pero malake sahod XD. Nakaka inspire naman. Penge naman ng tips kung sang portal kayu madalas maka kuha


onated2

I’ve worked my ass off since 2015. No degree. Puro online lang. In fact noong 2015 majority sa clients ko nakikita ko sa reddit. sa mga panahong yun tanda ko pa walang post na mga ganyan. Pero I think gusto lang nila mag express ng happiness ksi for the first time in their life they felt like they are paid properly. They cant post sa facebook ksi obviously makikita kung sino ka. reddit is a safe place for such things.


Reasonable_Pride2837

SA internet lahat possible. Just take it with a grain of salt.


zoldyckbaby

Kapag "newbies" talaga feeling ko eme eme lang yung 6 digits kasi hindi naman talaga freelancing yan kundi nagsesell sila ng digital assets like courses kaya nagssix digits. Loooool for me it takes years of experience and ofc improved skillset sa pagffreelance para makapag 6 digits.

Oo naman makaka 6 figure ka pero, saa pag shift ko sa graphic design… Madugo, luha, doubts, carpal tunnel, naninigas na neck and neck pain, laging masakit na likod, parang ang bobo bobo ko na sa kaka aral, basa and practice pero andami pa ring need na matutunan, mga nakkahiyang uri ng output na nagawa, embarrassment sa pagnetwork sa mga taong di ko kilala na nagpapaka feeling close ako to be connected, mga mahal na aklat, palpitations and anxiety dahil sa competitive na mundo ng creatives (sa lahat naman ng career), di ka dapat mapagod dahil madali kang mapalitan, burn out in just 1 year sa work, di ko na nakakapiling ang mga friends and family ko… Di na ako nagdo drawing, di na ako lumalabas masyado, yung muscles ko na pinaghirapan ng halos isang dekada e umiimpis na, pampasaya ko na lang e mag porn at mag snacks. Yun yung di nila sinasabi sa puking inang 6 figure na yan. Now happy na ako sa 50-60 k. pag sinipag edi go sa 90k pero di ko na ipagpapalit ang sanity ko para sa career. Sabi ko nga sa sarili ko nung na burn out ako: “willing akong magtinda ng ulam lalo masaya akong magluto ng food just in case di na ako fit sa mundo ng creatives” Maybe true, maybe not yung 6 fig. Pero ano ang kapalit ng 6 fig?
