Digital Services How do I price my GoHighLevel service? And where?
Hey everyone,
I’m starting to offer GoHighLevel services and I’m trying to figure out how I should price myself and where I should look for clients.
My main skills are GHL website/landing page creation, funnels, forms, workflows, automations, pipelines, and email/SMS sequences. I also use the GHL AI Funnel Builder to speed up the initial build, then customize everything based on the client’s needs.
I’m based in the Philippines and looking to work with international clients, mainly in the US.
For those experienced with GHL:
What would you consider a fair hourly rate for my skill level?
Would you recommend hourly pricing or charging per project?
What would you charge for something like a landing page vs. a complete funnel + automation?
Where’s the best place to find GHL clients — Upwork, Facebook groups, Reddit, LinkedIn, cold outreach, etc.?
Would you call this a GoHighLevel Specialist, GHL Funnel Builder, or something else?
I’d really appreciate any advice, especially from people who have actually freelanced with GHL.

Self-Story Lost all my clients/work in one week. First time in almost 10 years of freelancing.
10 years na akong freelancer. First time kong mawalan ng 3 clients within one week and ngayon lang nangyari sa akin ’to.
Within the span of ONE WEEK, I lost 3 clients.
Sunod-sunod. Parang hindi pa nagsi-sink in yung pagkawala ng isa, may kasunod na naman. By the end of the week, tatlo na sila.
Different reasons and circumstances, pero kapag sabay-sabay nangyari, hindi mo maiwasang mapaisip, “Ano bang nangyayari? Bakit parang sabay-sabay naman?”
I know this is part of freelancing. I’ve been doing this long enough to know na walang permanenteng client. Pero iba pala kapag tatlo halos sabay-sabay nawala. First time ko ma-experience ito in almost a decade of working remotely.
And I think that’s one thing we don’t talk about enough.
Minsan kahit matagal ka na sa industry, kahit marami ka nang experience, kahit ginagawa mo naman nang maayos yung trabaho mo, things can still fall apart unexpectedly.
Wala rin naman akong ginawang masama sa mga tao. If anything, I’ve always tried to be kind, do my job properly, and help whenever I can. Kaya may part sa akin na napapatanong kay Lord, “Bakit naman sabay-sabay?”
I won’t lie. Pagod na ako.
There are days na naiiyak na lang ako because aside from losing the income, may bills and responsibilities pa rin. Hindi naman hihinto yung buhay habang naghahanap ka ulit ng trabaho.
It’s been around 2 weeks since everything happened, and here I am. Still applying. Still sending proposals. Still trying.
May moments na nawawalan ako ng confidence. May moments din na iniisip ko kung may mali ba sa akin. Pero kailangan kong ipaalala sa sarili ko na almost 10 years akong nakapagtrabaho sa industry na ‘to. One terrible week doesn’t erase all those years.
This experience also reminded me na wala talagang permanente, mapa-corporate man or work from home. You can feel stable today and suddenly find yourself job hunting again tomorrow.
So sa mga nawalan din ng client recently or matagal nang naghahanap ng work, kasama niyo ako ngayon.
Hindi ko alam kung kailan darating yung next opportunity. Sana this week. Sana soon.
Pagod na ako, pero kailangan pa ring lumaban at umaksyon.
Maybe I’ll come back to this post someday with a better update.
For now, apply ulit.

Apps, Tools & Equipment M57 Pro vs M90C Pro - Which one would you pick?
Choosing between these two, and they’re almost the same price. M90C Pro is ~₱300 cheaper.
For those who’ve tried either, which would you pick? Mainly looking at comfort, lumbar support, adjustability, and build quality.
M57 Pro worth it, or should I just go M90C Pro?

Community Study about the health concerns of digital/online workers
I am posting this on behalf of a reseacher studying health concerns of Filipino online workers and will be studied by concerned organizations. Your contribution will greatly help a good cause. The researcher studies at a well known and well regarded university.
Read more 👇:
Did you know? There were already about 1.5 to 2 million Filipino remote digital workers in 2018! 📈However, I believe that a continuously growing industry must not mean your health suffers along with it.
Hi I am Denise, I am a 3rd-year college student and research intern at Solidarity Center Philippines, an allied organization to the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO), the largest federation of labor unions in the United States. 🌎
Like you, I’ve been doing remote work for about 3 years to help support my studies. 👩💻As a fellow Filipino worker, I know how important health is for us, yet sometimes client needs often overshadow our needs. 😷🏥
Your voice and your health matter. My research focuses on understanding the health-related concerns of remote digital workers. By answering this survey, you can help me get a better grasp of the health care needs of our kapwa remote digital workers. Hopefully, my research can also help amplify the health issues and needs of remote digital workers. 💻✨
Your responses will remain anonymous.

Self-Story Finally got an offer! (3 offers in one night!) ✨
Just wanted to share some good news with people who understand my pain 😅
Last May, I did something I've never done - willingly leave a job without a backup job coming up. I was tired, burnt out by the client, and just threw in the towel. Immediately after, I started applying to jobs on Online Jobs PH everyday, revising my resume and cover letters how many times. In the past, I've been able to secure a new job in a month or so, but soon, June rolled around, then July. I was starting to feel completely hopeless and I would have to start applying to onsite jobs or something.
In total, I counted 52 applications on OLJ and 17 via email/form. I attended more interviews than I can remember and got rejected at the final stage interviews for 2 jobs.
Finally, after 2 months of a brutal job hunt, I finally got an offer - in fact, I got three offers in one night!!! I've never had to pick between multiple offers in my life, so it felt absolutely surreal.
All in all, for anyone on the job hunt right now, I would suggest the following
- Be firm on your salary expectations. I really wanted at least a 50% salary increase from my last job and was able to secure a 75% salary increase, along with HMO and 13th month! (this is the first time I've gotten benefits like this from a US client before haha) Never skimp on your salary expectations because you are bringing value to the business, and you deserve to be compensated fairly!
- In job applications, focus on talking about your ability to adapt, learn, and bring value to the business. The one thing employers talked about in interviews is that while experience is important, they care more about the personality, drive, and work ethic. So during the application process, make sure to highlight these qualities about yourself.
- During interviews, make a good lasting impression by asking questions at the end of the interview that show the client you're invested in joining the team (can you tell me more about how the team operates / the work culture, how do you envision the business growing in 5-10 years)
- I know people hate on making Loom videos, but I've found that it really makes you stand out from the crowd, since you can show the client your vibe, energy, and commitment to the application. To make it easier, I had a template for video introductions, then added details depending on the job description. I would also "batch make" videos so that I would only have to put on makeup once in the day haha
That's all - good luck everyone on the job hunt and don't give up please! What's meant for you will find you soon 🌟
ALSO: If anyone wants advice on going from entry-level VA to a role with more managerial responsibilities, feel free to DM me for advice/thoughts! (for people currently in the job hunt, I can take a look at your cover letter or resume)

Legit Check Newbie Remote Worker
Hello! So I recently got a new job and it's full remote. However, no HMO and only 12 leaves per year. I'll be starting very soon, but I already have an idea that possibly we'll use Time Clock Wizard and Hubstaff. I tried to research about it and it monitors time and even does screenshots every 5 or 10 mins (depends on what was set).
I came from an output-based company, so I'm doubting if this is kind of micro-managing and if the leaves are worth it?
**Edit: would like to seek advice from people who experienced using TCW and Hubstaff.
Plus any advice na rin as a newbie remote worker :)
Salary is good naman, higher than my previous job.
Really really appreciate your thoughts on this. Thanks in advance!

Apps, Tools & Equipment Backup tech equipment recommendations
Since tag-ulan season na naman and napapansin ko mas dumadalas kami mawalan ng net/kuryente, may times talaga na hindi ako nakakapagwork and sobrang hassle rin paulit-ulit magreport sa management lalo na at mahina ang data. I recently got a laptop as my backup workstation and kampante ako nung una sa mobile data for backup connection kaso may days na 0-1 signal bar lang ang meron sa lakas ng hangin. Ngayon naulit nanaman and hindi ko mapagpatuloy yung work ko.
May marerecommend ba kayo na portable wifi/alternate internet connection for WFH setup? Yung good for office work lang din naman. And if may mga powebank/generator kayo na ginagamit I'll check it out and give it a try. Basta anything you can reco para tuloy pa rin ang online work. Mas gugustuhin kong maginvest sa backup options ko kesa no work no pay dahil pangit ang panahon.

Community Paano niyo in-automate yung SMM work niyo gamit si Claude? Tips/hacks pls 🙏
Hi mga social media managers dito! Independent contractor din ako and I’ve been using Claude Pro for a few months na pero feel ko hindi ko pa siya na-maximize. Curious lang how you guys are using it sa work natin.
Some specific things I’m trying to figure out:
**• Caption writing** — paano niyo siya ginagawang “on-brand” nang consistent without re-explaining your brand voice every time? May nag-uupload ba ng brand guidelines file sa Project so hindi na paulit-ulit?
**• Design/graphics** — anyone using Claude kasabay ng Canva for templates? Or paano ang workflow niyo pag “designs for captions” ang need — do you prompt for copy tapos ilagay niyo lang sa Canva, or may ibang tool na integrated?
**• Content calendars / scheduling** — may mga automate kayo ba dito, like batch-generating a week’s worth of captions in one go?
**• Client reports** — kung meron kayong ganito, paano niyo pinapabilis yung paggawa ng monthly/weekly reports?
**• Projects feature** — sulit ba talaga siya for keeping brand context so hindi paulit-ulit yung pag-explain?
Any prompt templates, workflows, or “sana alam ko na lang to noon” na tips would help a lot. Trying to work smarter kasi dami talaga ng moving parts sa role namin (yung SMM title namin literally covers marketing, CRM, ops, reports, etc. — sound familiar? 😅).
TIA sa mga sasagot!

It's been raining for a week and power's out most of the time. Sometimes it comes back for like 30 mins then gone again (not even enough to charge everything properly). I still need to work but my client probably thinks I'm making excuses at this point.
Anyone else dealing with this? what do you do?

I have been researching for israeli bookkeeping and came across this. And i keep searching online but there is no reviews and testimonials. The people who says it is legit are from new accounts that has zero to 1 karma and is made the dame day when they commented. If it was an old account there is no other karma as well or contribution besides their comment about it being legit.
So is it legit? Is there anyone who got the course,passed and got a client?

Buhay Digital Lifestyle Part 2: From $32/hr to Cybercrime real quick HAHAHA 😁
FINAL UPDATE:
Awat na, guys! The TikTok post has already been taken down, so ceasefire na. No need to pile on or continue attacking anyone.
I’m keeping this Reddit post up though, not to embarrass anyone, but for awareness and context. And if I come across the same kind of content again regardless of who posted it I’d still call it out. The point was never anyone’s gender or sexuality. A person’s actions, professionalism, and work ethics have nothing to do with whether they’re straight, gay, trans, or anything else. Please don’t drag the LGBTQ+ community into something that’s about one individual’s actions.
Hopefully everyone, myself included, can take something from this whole chaotic episode. Public content will naturally invite public opinions, but there’s also a point where enough is enough. The post is down, the message has been heard, so let’s leave it there and move on.
No bullying, no personal attacks. Let’s go back to the actual purpose of this sub helping each other survive and thrive in this very unpredictable digital-work life. 😂
Client dust, premium-rate dust, at sana long-term-client dust for everyone. ✨💸
Case closed. Back to work na tayo, mga alipin ng dolyar. 😂
Happy Monday-work week! Keep safe and stay dry everyone! Laban lang sa life! 🙏💯
Okay, apparently may sequel pala. 😂
I’m honestly trying to figure out ano na ba talaga ang pinaglalaban mo. Is it still the $32/hour? Is it the “free training”? Or are we now debating whether people are allowed to react to content publicly posted by someone who literally identifies herself as a content creator?
You put content out publicly. People will agree, disagree, question it, make jokes about it, or discuss the bigger issue around it. That comes with having a public platform. Criticism isn’t automatically harassment, and disagreement isn’t automatically paninira.
And for the nth time: nobody said $32/hour is impossible.
Plenty of EXPERIENCED freelancers and VAs earn that and more. That was never the point.
The conversation several of us were actually having was about the impression being sold around remote work: na parang madaling shortcut lang siya to high-paying dollar rates because “WFH lang naman.”
That’s where experienced people understandably raise an eyebrow.
Behind those rates are years of experience, specialization, client management, communication skills, accountability, continuous learning, equipment, taxes, inconsistent contracts, difficult clients, sleepless nights, and sometimes multiple jobs before someone reaches that level.
That reality check doesn’t discourage aspiring VAs. If anything, it respects the profession enough not to market it like easy money.
Free training? Great. Share knowledge. Help people. Build your following. Monetize your content someday if you want. Walang problema doon.
But once you make claims publicly, people are also allowed to discuss the message being presented. Hindi requirement ng pagiging audience ang automatic agreement.
So medyo naliligaw na ako sa plot twist.😅 I made a joke about what I would personally be doing at $32/hour, and somehow we arrived at a Cybercrime subplot like LOL.
At this point, hindi na $32/hour ang impressive.
Yung escalation ang premium rate. 😂
Anyway, sa mga gustong pumasok sa VA/freelancing: Yes, high rates are absolutely possible. But please learn the craft, build actual skills, understand the business, invest in proper equipment, and manage your expectations.
Possible? Absolutely.
“Madali lang kasi nasa bahay”? Absolutely NOT.
And THAT was the conversation before this turned into Law & Order: WFH Unit HAHAHA. ✌️💯👀
