Winning proposals
Or getting clients to respond to you after accepting their invite!
Most new freelancers like me think that getting an invite is a guarantee that the client will respond to your proposal.

Nowadays, I am stuck while writing my proposal about how I can provide more value to my client and stand out from others. I was thinking where I can get some new information. Because I already saw all the CZcams videos about proposals. After checking your channel yesterday. Today I found this video in my suggestion, and it gives me new ideas that I can use to stand out and improve my proposals. Thanks again Josh.
Another helpful content. Thanks a ton, man!
You're very welcome!

I have been struggling on Upwork for the past week, watching Josh's video is the help and guidance that I just needed. Now I have my first client! Thanks Josh!
So happy to hear this! You're more than welcome.
I found this video very interesting. Besides providing pro tips on becoming successful in Upwork, your video also sparked in me a lot of interest about Data Engineering, SQL Server DBA & SQL Developent. Honestly I have only known a thing or two about it until now, but at the moment I really want to learn more & persue after it, and utilize my time & energy into a better future. I love how you have a great relationship with all your clients, even when in long term work relationships. Im really motivated.
Thanks Josh , You're The man
Appreciate you!
This was very informative! Just gained massive value from Kenya.
I'm very happy to hear that! 😀
Thanks for sharing these tips. Great value content....superb...😍😍😍
You're welcome! I'm glad you think so.
Such a nice person, another great video.
I really appreciate that! :)
This video gave me lots of information and also too much positivity!
Let's go! 🔥
Bro, I liked it and subscribed to it... You are perfect.
Thanks for the sub and kind words! :)
I am struggling to find clients (with accounting or bookkeeping experience) but new to the freelancing world, but I will try to apply your advice in my next proposals. Thank you for sharing.
You're welcome! Hope this video helps you!
I love your videos!
Thanks Brian! I'm glad you get value from them.
Amazing and thorough video as always, Josh. As a fellow freelancer, I appreciate the knowledge you share with your audience on this topic. I know freelance sites can get a bad reputation, but when you put the work in and follow proven systems (like the proposal format you laid out), anyone can have success. I was able to become Top Rated on Upwork as well and have seen client demand on Upwork increase even more over the past 1-2 years. Keep it up!
You just earned a subscriber. The way you speak doesn't sound like you're trying to over sell a dream. I'm going to start putting in work fr
Thanks for the sub! 😁
Thank you for honest and useful tips, Josh!
I'm an Upwork freelancer for the 6 years and to be honest my last year is tough. Luckily, I found your profile in Instagram and then found out your CZcams channel.
Wish you having projects perfectly match with your expectations and thank you for work you do
Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for the comment, Kate!

I've been struggling to win clients on UpWork. After watching an older video from Josh where he shows his Cover Letter strategy, I've won 3 jobs in 3 days. Josh is an awesome tutor.
Thanks so much for sharing! This will be a huge inspiration to new freelancers.
Please can you share a link to the video that got you the job? I've been struggling to win jobs.
Top notch content as always

THANK YOU VERY MUCH Josh for sharing your experience and tips. Keep it up. I came back today to prove it WORKED 100%.
It had been a month since I got my first $100 job which was completed with 5 star review. I (re)watched your videos and try to be client centeric in everything.

hi brother JOSH I recently registered from Upwork platform if I'm not mistaken it's been more than 5 months. But I haven't found my first client yet and I just saw your CZcams Channel yesterday. I think now that I've learned from your videos, I can reach my clients. Thank you brother JOSH!
I'm glad you found my channel! I have a new video coming this week and definitely recommend that you watch it :)
@@JoshBurnsTech Yes, of course I will see, Bro thank you!

Invaluable Video ❤️❤️❤️

You're welcome Ahmad!
Right now when watching this video a client responded to my proposal, yay🤩🤩
Okay, first. I like hearing your voice. It sounds calming for me. Don't get me wrong, I learned a lot from your videos especially the tips on how to win proposals its just your voice is so distracting... in a nice way haha anyways, I'll keep watching your videos for more tips and info :) Keep safe~!
hahaha! Well, I'm glad it's distracting in a nice way! Really glad that you enjoy them, Marjorie! 😀
Hi . Thank you so much for this ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Gonna reply once Im hired ❤️❤️❤️❤️

You're welcome!
Hi Josh
Thank u very much for this video have learnt a lot am new to this no experience how do l go about it since l don't have an experience to include
From Today I will follow your tips. Mark my words. After 6 months or maybe even less I will be back with results :)
I can’t wait to see your results! 🔥🔥🔥
Mate, your pieces of advice are legit. I wrote 3 proposals as you taught for Frontend Developer tasks, and 2 of them responded back to me, I started working with one of them and earned 500+, but the second one didn't wait for me to be free, so hired another one. Thanks, bro. I recommended your channel to one of my friends and he is seeing the results as well.
Thanks, Bro once again!!!
I see the positive results in just 10 days
@@nodirbekvositov This is amazing to hear! Thanks so much for sharing and keep up the great work!
Hey, its 6 months, can you share your experience?
This is great. Now let me go send a proposal. Ill be back here.
I may be a little late😂, but mate, this is truly some amazing content!
Better late than never! LOL I appreciate you!
Thank you
You're welcome!
When we pay for subscription is it necessary to hide income or optional + is it good for me to hide or it helps get more jobs .. ? Thanks for all the help man
Its 2:35 am in India. Grinding Hard
Should I mention that "I am mentoring" & attach few screenshots of the conversations with my mentees? in my proposal?
11:40 Notes taken my man, lets give these a whirl.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
How much time do you usually spend creating proposals?
I love this video Josh!!. But I have one question to ask..
What can a freelancer that doesn't have any portfolio or past jobs samples, probably he or she just newly learnt an online skill and is for sure good at the job posted. What do you suggest for such freelancers cos their chances of getting a job is very slim.
Does it mean, they never get to have a job. I really need help on this cos I am one of such
Please tell assist in data entry and data research cover letter
5:22: Hate to throw a monkey wrench in there but sometimes you'll see multiple people's name but good advice overall. Thanks for posting this.
Hey Josh , All thanks helped to start my freelancing career currently i just finished profile polishing and add some reference to my work but my scenario is bit confusing as using my profile i am offering some extensive skills and services. But i am python stack developer and for mobile development my friend offered me his service how should i setup communication with clients
sorry if i have no experience on the work am applying to now how am i going attach my portfolio?
Terimakasih Josh, saran anda sangat membantu
I'm struggling to get clients on Upwork working as a Front-end Devleoper. Trying for the past 2 months and will keep trying.
All I need is just one push and I'm good to go.
I will follow your advice. Wish me good luck!. Btw Great Video
Very good information but I don't know how to start first time work on upwork . Please help me by learning this idea to start working
Hello josh I want to summit a proposal for my client but I don’t know how to send the right proposal
In 2021 take a job on Upwork became so difficult, especially after adding the proposal boost feature. Within a week I've sent around 30 cover letters and, in my stats I see one (1) watched ((. I think that because most people decided to become a freelancer after the pandemic.
While more people became freelancers, more companies also started using freelancers. It’s easy to make excuses instead of looking inward and identifying what you need to improve on. I recommend watching my video covering common Upwork mistakes.
I hired a content writer (remotely) so it is possible he can do bidding by accessing my upwork via Teamweaver?
Hi Josh, please make a video on how to secure jobs through Project Catalogs on Upwork, in every field. Pleaseee
Hey! I don't have any personal experience using the project catalog but I will keep this in mind.
@@JoshBurnsTech Thankyou
u are best :)
Thank you! : )
How a long beard should put his pic on his profile to get hired without any kinda prejudice?
Josh hopefully u are doing well. Plz suggest me video or link where i can find how upwork rank the purposal to client. How can be a purposal on 1st page on client list. What factor behind it. I search but noting satisfying me. Can you help me. Its a challenge for you . Figure out plzz.
هل ممكن ترجمة عربي علشان مش قادرة افهم . شكرا
i have been trying for so long, but no luck, may be this will help
Be patient and look inward. Find areas where you need to improve. I hope this video helps you as well!
Hey Josh, im a first year computer science student. Recently i came across freelancing and I'm determined to get into it
Do you think that data science would be a good field to get into , in terms of demand for data science freelancers. Also, do you think that clients may not actually prefer me because i don't have any actual work experience. thanks
Data science is definitely a great field with demand. If you don't have any work experience, then you will need to be able to showcase your abilities. This means doing projects for yourself, etc. Focus on being able to create a portfolio that shows your abilities.
Hi Josh, I'm a beginner freelancer on upwork, so should I apply on those who had *$0 spent-payment verified* -clients? & also as well as on them who have *payment unverified* ?? Because i've heard that if these type of clients cheats with their payment methods(like stolen credit cards..etc) the customer's account will be suspended as well as the freelancer's account, can u sort it out to me? then it'll be very helpful🙂
I am trying since 2 months..but not getting any project ...please any suggestions from anyone ?
Sorry am getting to know about freelancing and I have a great desire to support my career with freelancing but I don't know how to start up.
Can anyone be a guide along this parth
Thanks
Hi Josh. I am new to Upwork, just learning how to work remotely. So this video is very good for me. I really appreciate all your information. I have a question: Only the client can send the call link on Upwork? Or I can do it as a freelancer? THANK YOU
You can also schedule a meeting from your side after the client messages you.
Josh this is off topic but deep down my heart says You can solve my problem, Thing is I've been freelancing for quite a time and earned $3k in 1 year on Fiverr. I know That I can achieve 100X than this but I get stuck at the work ethic part! Can you recommend to me anything that I can do to become insanely disciplined and extremely hardworking? Any books?
Respect from Pakistan 🇵🇰...Good stuff
