Thanks for sharing your success, Moses! 💚

Please can you send me a sample? I been sending proposal no good news
Can you help me how to find a job in upwork bro
Hi great and thanks for sharing can you sent me some example please
OMG this is by far the most comprehensive tutorial on proposal writing, I have seen online hats off
We appreciate your positive feedback, Abid! 💚
@@Upworkit's important to send project detail or sample with proposals? For any developer.
Having a unique introduction on your cover letter that is absolutely clear that you wrote it for the specific job is crucial. The vast majority of proposals get archived before even being opened fully because the client can tell it's not unique. Also, being that I frequently work on both sides of Upwork (freelancer and client side) I can tell you that taking the time to get good at demonstrating the value can provide will be the biggest factor in your success. When a client opens your proposal they need to feel confident that you may be able to solve the problem they are having. That means the proposal needs to be more client focused rather than focusing entirely on yourself and why you are the best.
Hi Paul, thank you for sharing your thoughts! That's very well put.
@@Upwork Absolutely. Thanks for your reply
Hi Paul, are you currently looking for freelancers right now?
Also, being that I frequently work on both sides of Upwork (freelancer and client side) - what other bothe sides upwork has, so you must explain to us in ()?
@@XzzVttll I don't understand your question. Upwork can be used as a freelancer or as a client. That's what I mean by both sides.
Ive been in upwork for months now i watched your videos last night and submitted using these methods and Ive landed 2jobs already thank u Thank u idont know how to thank u sir
We're ecstatic to hear we were able to help and the impact was so fast, Sandoz! Happy working. 🌞💚
Hi, Can I see your sample proposal or you can just explain here how you improved your proposal? what are major things to include in? Cheers...
Hi Khurram, The video above has lots of great tips about how to improve proposals. To learn more about what it takes to be successful on Upwork, we invite you to ask questions and learn from your fellow freelancers in the Upwork Community here: community.upwork.com/?
@@khurrammalik4558 the mistakes we made as new upwork freelancers is when we are writing a proposal is we are trying to get hired and thats huge mistake or we don't read the job description very well but when you propose try to communicate with the client and give him improvements about his project and give him your history by making personal experience related to this project and lastly ask him a question that will make the client contact you and that will land u. On interview and so on ...
@@sacduuz293 Would help me !In sending your sample of proposal I have got difficulties as beginner .
Every time I watch a video of you, I put a like for it, because I learn many things from what you're teaching us, and because you're so generous!
I want to say a very big thanks to you.
I started Upwork just last week Wednesday (29/03/2022) and I landed my first job on Saturday (02/04/2022). This was possible majorly because I followed the steps in the video for writing a proposal.
Thank you so much once again
💚
I have also started my journey on Upwork can you please tell me about your skill and bidding method?

This was an excellent presentation!
May I suggest if you do another one and show samples of your work to actually read them aloud and zoom in? The print was so tiny on the screen it was extremely difficult to read.
Thank you for your hard work!
We're glad you enjoyed it Rebekah! Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We'll pass this along to the appropriate team for review.
True @Rebekah, had same issues. Couldn't read what was on the screen, it was too tiny.
Thank you for amazing tips.

Great Content! Although I watched it very late, but I have a question about freelancers who provide confidential services like Accounting, Bookkeeping and Taxes, what do they will attach to showcase their expertise as all data they worked on is confidential. Please guide!
Hi Talha, that's a good question. The best advice comes from experienced Upworkers. To learn more about what it takes to be successful on Upwork, we invite you to ask questions and learn from your fellow freelancers in the Upwork Community here:
community.upwork.com/?
Also, we would suggest checking our other freelancers' profiles to give you an idea. Like these accountants:
www.upwork.com/hire/accountants/?
Hope this helps.
This is a good overview of writing proposals. The content goes deeper than most and adds in the information about not having examples. One questions is what is meant by cover letter, I may have missed it. By cover letter do you mean text in the proposal field on UpWork or should there be a separate PDF cover letter?
Hi there, check out this article for tips on writing a cover letter: www.upwork.com/resources/cover-letter-tips?OrganicSocial&LinkedIn&ORSOCL_LI_OTHR_ALLMKTS_BRAND_AWR_LAL_All__EVGR_CE
