Hi my name is Talal Imran I am an entrepreneur already running a design agency and now I am looking to hop on to writing gigs as I love to write content on trending topics and looking to connect with fellow writers who can help me to grow in this industry. I am looking to learn copy writing and script writing. My Goals for 2026 is to grow as a writer and create an an agency where we can post atleast $5-6K per month in the coming year 2026. I want to get these 3 things from the community: 1.  Connect with fellow writers. 2.  Learn this precious skill. 3. How to use Upwork effectively and how to get projects to achieve $5-6K per month. For fun I like to do these 3 things: 1.  Gaming. 2.  Writing. 3. Surf social media for trending and viral topics.

Yesterday, I had a long conversation with a close friend. He’s handling the social media for one of his projects. The client was satisfied, but there was no “wow” factor no appreciation, no excitement.That really bothered his team. He reached out to me and said: “Yar, come on board with me on this project and help redesign the social media for this client.” I shared some of my design samples with him, and he genuinely liked the direction. Then we talked about budget. He already has his own team, but he isn’t fully satisfied with the results. At the same time, he couldn’t spend much because they’re doing this mainly for client satisfaction, not profit. I shared the market rates with him. He got worried and said: “Yar, itnay mein nahi ho sakay ga. Hum to sirf client ko khush rakhne ke liye kar rahe hain.” He’s a good friend, and I know if I support him now, he’ll remember me in future projects. This experience will also help me grow my portfolio and profile. My first quoted rate was 75k, but the budget just wasn’t there. So I decided to take the call. I booked the project at 30k per month for 30 designs. Yes, I know it’s less.But sometimes, you don’t work just for money you work to enter the right circle, build trust, and create future opportunities. Not every win is about numbers.Some wins are about positioning yourself for what comes next.
