My name is Inemesit Etim, and I am the CEO of Digital Wakaa, a thriving digital marketing agency. I began my freelancing journey in 2021, and over the past three years, I have consistently earned 500,000 Naira or more every month, accumulating over $40,000 in freelance income.

I am proud to be a Top-Rated Plus freelancer on Upwork, having collaborated with clients worldwide on projects valued at $2,000 to $3,000 per project. Some of my clients have even worked with me for extended periods, spanning over a year.

However, my journey wasn’t always smooth. As a Mechanical Engineering graduate, I struggled to find my footing after graduation. My first job paid me a mere 15,000 Naira, and when I lost it, I was heartbroken and uncertain about the future.

Discovering freelancing was my turning point, but the path to success was far from easy. I faced numerous rejections, spent countless nights sending proposals, and doubted my ability to succeed. Yet, I persevered.

My breakthrough came when I landed my first client—a $6 content-writing job. That single project opened the door to greater opportunities, and over time, I built a thriving freelance career.

Today, I am passionate about guiding others through the freelancing world, ensuring they avoid the mistakes I made and achieve success faster.

“As someone who started freelancing without guidance, I know how overwhelming it can feel. My mission is to help you avoid the pitfalls I faced and fast-track your success. Together, we’ll unlock your true freelancing potential.” – Inemesit Etim
