Hey! My name is Sergey Semenov. I work as a furniture assembler and in particular work with Fields Furniture Store. Today I can boast of a stable income and a decent salary. But it was not always so...
A couple of years ago, I was out of work for quite a long time and even thought about changing my profession. I wanted to work for myself and at the same time have a stable income. In the furniture assembly industry, this seemed impossible - you couldn't earn much in fixed-salary furniture firms. As luck would have it, my acquaintances advised me to find a job and part-time job Pro.
It didn't work at first
Registration took me at most 5 minutes, and the scheme of work seemed extremely simple and straightforward. You find a suitable order on the website or in the application and respond to it. If the client is interested in the price and profile, chat or by phone and agree on the terms in more detail. If everything suits everyone, you go to the place and do the work.
I confess that at first it was not easy for me to find clients. Few people will be interested in a master without reviews - everyone wants to hire a competent specialist with proven qualifications. But I was not going to give up.
What I've done
I left on the site a detailed description of myself and my services, added a photo of the work performed. I tried not to overstate the price, while communicating with clients I delved into the essence of the problem and learned their wishes. Depending on the situation, I always tried to meet them halfway, provided a system of discounts.
I also asked clients to leave a review if possible. As a result, people began to trust me more, I earned a reputation for quality work and a little wit.
Now I am quite satisfied with the earnings, I do not even think about leaving the profession. It is important for me to independently plan my time and schedule and choose which order to respond to. It is also pleasing to be able to take work close to home and not spend the whole day on the road.
In general, I never regretted that I followed the advice of my acquaintances and registered on the Profi. If you are thinking about working for yourself - create a personal page on the site and start making money on what you can.
