Things to consider when creating a proposal on Upwork

Upwork is a platform that many freelancers use nowadays. It is extremely useful, and has proven to be a game-changer for many Nigerians. In a land of little opportunities saddled with a corruption-driven administration, freelancing provides a way for the youth to get paying jobs. However, getting these jobs are easier said than done. One of the things that determine if you get jobs or not is your proposal. With a weak proposal, no one would take a second glance at what you’re offering, let alone take you seriously. If this is your story, just include these things in your proposal.

  • Their first name. You can find it in the past reviews section.
  • What you can provide them with
  • An indirect statement that relates to you doing a wonderful job for them. Don’t beat about the bush. Also, please do not boast.
  • You can choose to end it by presenting them a question regarding the hob description. This compels most people to answer that question in a private message. This automatically increases your chance of getting the job!
