It's asking for payment via online payment but sorry to say I'm not able to pay money. I don't have money personal expenses that's why trying to learn upwork but there is so many confusion

@@JoshBurnsTech hello sir I have a question in Fiverr ,when I send the request they usually send notification that " was rejected 😕" I don't know why but I have follow all the step in how to fill my profile in correct way 😊,can you please guide me on how can I get my first order without being rejected
Even if this doesn’t work, you’ve gained a new sub just because of your energy!! So the trick is to start small $ per/hr, show examples of work and get as many good review as possible. Then once you look like a pro, charge more? I’m guessing it may take a few months to get a decent amount of reviews as the jobs will be far in between with not much reviews. So it’s a patients game, but if you stick with it, it will be worth it in the long run. Also with repeat customers, it’s borderline passive income if your accomplished on the app. I don’t mind spending $50 on a pack of connects. I would bid a lot of connects just to get a few jobs for reviews. Is it “the more connects you bid, the better chance you have at getting hired”?
@@JoshBurnsTech not yet brother, I am now learning the skill , I have little experience in sql relationships ,i saw your video about Learning sql server and i'm really work by your advice but i have a little problem i mean it's hard i have 21 years old and i'm worry my life
Hey man, your videos are an inspiration for me to stay freelancing in Upwork, but the thing is I'm struggling to get my first client from the last 10 months.
Hey man, glad to hear that I can inspire you! So at that point, you in to look inward. Think about what you're doing, the time your putting in, how disciplined you are, and the level of effort that you're actually giving. Also look at other freelancers who have your skill set. What's different about their profiles, photo, portfolio, etc. that differs from yours. You have to look in the mirror and determine areas where you need to make improvements.
This video provides a great starter for people who want to get into freelancing on the main platforms. What tips do you have for rising the ranks and getting those top-rated reviews? In my experience, the customer service element is what is most lacking on these platforms, so any tips for viewers on how to improve this aspect of their work should help with their reviews.
Getting 5-star reviews with great feedback is all about over-delivering. Customer service and soft skills tends to be the most lacking areas in my experience. I try to always keep the client in mind and keep them fully up to date on my work. Communication goes a long way in building long term client relationships.
Hello Josh, great videos thank you! I feel I have different things I can offer on upwork, from being a tutor for several subjects, to interpreting languages, to all these things you just mentioned here. So my question is, how can you create multiple or one profile for all these things you are able to offer, and will it sell? Or should I create several upwork accounts? Or what is your strategy for this, because a 'can do anything' person may not be as appealing for employers? Looking forward to your thoughts.
I’m afraid to try Freelance Jobs because I don’t think that I have the skill to manage freelancing but I’m in a bit of a pickle currently. I’ve been doing Graphics Design for over 3 years and I’d like to would like to work as one but I’m afraid that my work isn’t up to anyone’s expectations. Should I try freelance or should I try looking for a simple job?
Hey! It sounds like you need to build confidence to get started. I would recommend researching other graphic designers on Upwork to get an idea of freelance contracts they have completed. Checkout jobs in the entry to intermediate level and build your way up from there.
Do you use nay graphic design apps or websites for free? If so could you tell me which ones to you use? I don't have a digital tool pen or apple pencil tho.
Omg I laughed so hard at that intro - I'm literally sitting in the Tesla my boyfriend lets me drive waiting at my daughter's school for class to be out and watching this after being really upset about not being able to find a job lol - I needed a laugh thanks 😆 Great info btw!
@@JoshBurnsTech hello 👋 Thank you for replying my comment I’m from 🇮🇳 India and I’m your permanent subscriber. I’m using FIVERR AND UPWORK and on both websites I didn’t get any order on fiverr my gig ranking under 30 on keyword daily got impressions , clicks but didn’t getting any order ?
Hi! Thanks for your video! If I don't have lots of experience or achievements, how would you suggest I make a successful cover letter? It seems ever job you apply for on upwork require one. I'm kinda stuck there. Don't want to mess it up before I send it
Hey Joshua. I am just seeing your Video for the first time. I am a data analyst and among all tools I use for data analysis, SQL is my best. I suck at visualization sometimes. I need your advice. I do advanced SQL but really need a mentor.
Hi Josh, I'm a beginner at upwork. The problem I'm facing is to buy connects. While applying when I started I applied some jobs according to experience and then all my connects which were free were consumed Now how to get free connects although I didn't get any response yet from anyone
Hi Josh I am very new to this. I am from the Caribbean and I really want to start on one of these platform Part-Time. I would say that my skills are similar to a General VA/Administrative Assistant and I am also an Elementary School Teacher. Which Platform would be suitable for me ?
@@JoshBurnsTech Please make a separate video on which skill we should learn that will be in demand in future. I am looking to learn new skills but don't know which one should I go. I am into marketing right now. But want to learn high paid skill.
Hi there josh i am a 22 year old male with a year experience currently in panel beating with only other experience for a family rental company...how could i implement little skills to free lance?
Hi josh I'm from Pakistan I watched All of your videos related to freelance but still not getting any clients and also my English is very basic can I get any client or not and if yes then how please reply me briefly and I will be your new subscriber from then
Hey josh, hope you doing good. I wanna learn new skill and i am thinking of sql only as I know the basics of it. So can you recommend me how can I start learning this skill ? Plus how can i grow with this skill on upwork.
Hey! You first need to determine if you enjoy it. My success with SQL is largely due to the fact that I love it. There's no way that I could have put the hours in if I didn't enjoy the work. You will make way more money and be happier if you find someone that you truly enjoy. So take some free courses (skillshare link in bio), watch some free UA-cam content, download a DBMS such as SQL Server, and determine if you enjoy it. Find a good combination of expected pay and skill enjoyment.
@@JoshBurnsTech yeah. I have done it in mysql . I know the basics like creating table, inserting, altering and many things related to table. How much more do I need to learn? can you tell me exactly which software should i download? well, thankyou for replying. :-)
@@kapilsharma-uu5zo Those are really the basics of any SQL language. To understand what you would need to be able to do from an administrative or development perspective, you need to look at open jobs on Upwork and also jobs completed by other SQL freelancers. That will allow you to see actual job titles and details.
Easy answer, there’s different clients on Upwork. Some clients want cost effective work and others want to work with top talent. I started at $25/hour in 2016 and worked my way up to $125/hour.
Absolutely! Focus heavily on showcasing examples of your work and look into testimonals (new way to add reviews to your profile). This video should help you a lot as well. ua-cam.com/video/BBYNBO6IDn4/v-deo.html
Okay hear me out. You create your own blog (hosting is really cheap), write blog posts around topics you enjoy, then use it as examples of your work when bidding on freelance jobs. It's definitely possible to showcase your content writing abilities without prior freelance job experience. I personally have my own blog that I could use as examples of my work.
@@JoshBurnsTech Makes sense. What I mean was more about the paying, I tried to do it before focusing on Google Analytics and Tag Manager, but the pay was very low. We are talking about the 5$/h range.
@@guidohummel1 I can find tons of freelancers making $20 - $40 an hour writing blog posts on Upwork. I've also paid freelancers around $30-$40 per blog post to basically copy/paste and re-word my UA-cam scripts, which can be done within an hour. Like most freelance jobs, the more 5-star reviews and great feedback you have, the more you can charge per hour.
