What our students say
Join our global community of like-minded freelancers who are harvesting today the seeds planted while completing the Hand-in-Hand Winning Bundle.
I really don't think I would have been able to get onto a platform like Upwork and get contracts without the advice that Wisar provided me during the program.
After growing from $0 to selling $ 400 per week in less than 3 months, I'm considering leaving my full-time job to focus 100% on freelancing online.
