  • Potential clients are flaky. You write them a message, they don't get back to you. But in freelance, getting responses = $$$. So here's 10 Upwork cover letter calls to action - put these at the end of your proposal. They've worked pretty well for me in getting clients to respond, send me a message or get on a meeting together (which is how I earned over $1,000,000 so there's that). And maybe they'll work for you too.

    Great video as always Evan. What do you think about video proposals? What I mean is starting your proposal with something like: "I dont want to bore you with a canned and copied proposal. Heres a video that I recorded for you where I talk about the job details. Trust me its not something I copy and paste to everybody but its specific to you" and then you actually record yourself talking about the description and why you would be a good fit for the client in a casually recorded video.

      @FreelanceMVP  Рік тому +2

    Quick question, is there anytime of the day you consider best for sending proposals?

    • @FreelanceAvenue
      @FreelanceAvenue Рік тому

      there's no good or bad time for sending proposals, because the clients are in various timezones anyway. I've noticed what makes a difference is if you apply as early as possible when the new job has been posted. Ideally if you apply within a day after it was posted, it increases your chances to be noticed.

      Boosting doesn't make much difference. Some freelancers spend all their connects on boosting a bad application and don't get anywhere. If your profile and application are good, Upwork will still put you high on the list as a relevant applicant.

    I'm new to Upwork and have carefully sent 17 proposals. According to the stats, only two of them were viewed by the clients.
    I apply to jobs where there is less competition. For example, I sent a proposal to the client, who was looking for someone to do his SQL assignment.
    There were less than five proposals. I even solved the hardest question (according to him) because I have no reviews and attached the screenshot of the output, but he didn't even view my proposal. And after a few hours, he hired someone else. I mean, I can't know whether my proposals are appealing or not when clients are not even viewing them.
    I think it's because they can see that I'm a beginner and don't bother to open my proposals.

      Click on stats, and the select the proposals from the drop-down shown on that page.
      It doesn't tell which proposals were being viewed, but you can infer/guess that.
      For example, in the last 7 days, I have only sent one proposal, and in the stats when I click on proposals and select record for seven days, it shows no views on proposals that means the client didn't view my last proposal.
