If you want to create an agency and sell the services of other workers, you’ll first need to create a freelancer account for the agency owner.
Once that account is activated
- Go to Settings > My Teams and choose Create a new account button at the bottom.
- Select the New Freelancer Agency Account option and fill out the form.
After you create your agency, the Account Menu will be where you can switch between your personal and agency account views. A person can only “own” one agency Upwork. You won’t be able to make another one.
