The 3 Most Common Mistakes I See Made on Upwork:
#1.) Not submitting enough proposals.
Volume > everything.
If you do the volume, you have data.
Accurate data allows you to run real tests.
If you keep testing, you’re guaranteed to succeed.
#2.) Not personalizing proposals.
I’ve spent over $40,000 hiring employees on Upwork.
When I post a job, 90% of the proposals I receive have little to no personalization.
It’s an immediate turnoff.
Spend 5 minutes, personalize your proposal, and your response rate will triple.
#3.) Not optimizing the profile.
Your Upwork profile is meant to build trust with prospects.
We do that by:
  • Filming video intros
  • Providing case studies
  • Providing an abundance of information
