No, don't do it, you can have only 1 - lifetime - account on Upwork, this means if you delete your current account, you won't be allowed to create another one no matter if it is the same email address. Terms and conditions 3.5 Upwork Legal Center
Pro Group beta first call
I think the first call was awesome; one of the biggest challenges as a solo freelancer is to find peers that have a similar experience and understanding of this whole freelancing/work/life balance issue. The call - thanks to Evan - brought together freelancers and them the opportunity to discuss things and to learn from each other and Evan. I like the structure and waiting for the next call to learn from the group.

My Freelance Productivity System
It's taken me years to figure out which ones are the best tech tools to use, how to connect them, and why to use them - here are some of the most important parts of freelance productivity system, and WHEN in your freelance journey you should start using them: (note: these are pieces of OUR ACTUAL TECH STACK. Some links are affiliate links that help support the community - others I've included just because they're awesome and THEY'LL HELP YOU MAKE MONEY even if we make $0 promoting them!) WHEN YOU WIN PROJECT #1: Email Yourname@gmail.com is fine to start, but the moment you win your first job, you're a business - so you better be getting your own domain and setting up email. 1A. Domain For getting your domain & configuring it, I suggest Cloudflare. There are tons of places to get a domain online, but Cloudflare offers wholesale pricing without a markup. It's cheap, and it's awesome. Cloudflare doesn't add markups because they want you to use their other premium services as you grow - you won't need those yet. This gets you your "yourbusiness.com" where you can build your website eventually - next you get your "yourname@email.com" email address. 1B. Gmail Gmail is super-easy to use, the most "connected" for making your work streamlined, and it's SECURE... but the MOST important thing about Gmail in my opinion is that it is EASY TO SET UP. I've tried setting up email on other services, and it is a DISASTER. For professional email (and the rest of the Google Workspace stack, including GOOGLE CALENDAR + GOOGLE DRIVE) it's $6/month in USA. Showing that you're a PROFESSIONAL to clients for $6 / month - and having cloud storage and having your fully-integrated calendar included? WORTH IT. WHEN YOU WIN PROJECT #2: Calendar Booking This story has happened to basically everyone: "I sent in a proposal, and the potential client responded overnight asking when we could do a meeting. But when I sent them messages in the morning, I didn't hear back. I sent a few follow-ups over the next two days to organize a meeting, but still no response. I sent a last follow-up the next week, and they told me they already went with someone else. 😭

@Evan Fisher I would add to the PM tool also ClickUp, it is good for using it solo, but its awesome using it as a team. For 19$/month I can invite 10 guests, so if I have tasks that are needs to be done by clients I can assign it to them. For booking: I'm quite happy with calendarhero...its integrates with my zoom pro autogenerating the video calls, pretty handy.

Don't be fooled by the statistics; the highest-paying niches/jobs are the specialist jobs; in some sense, all you have listed can be specialists, but I'm pretty sure that devs are earning more than designers...
