If you’re a freelancer, the thought of finding quality work can be daunting. How do you get started?

How do you find the good clients? How do you get them to offer you work?

There are a number of ways to get started on UpWork. You can create a profile and start applying for jobs, or you can wait for clients to find you.

PRO TIP: If you are considering using Upwork to find work, be aware that there are many scams associated with the platform. Some scammers will pose as clients and try to get you to do work for them without paying, while others will try to get you to pay for access to job offers. Be sure to research any potential clients or job offers before agreeing to work with them, and never pay for access to job offers on Upwork.

If you’re proactive, you can start by sending out proposals to clients who have posted job ads that match your skillset. To do this, go to the Jobs page and click on the “Find Work” tab. Then, use the filters to find jobs that match your skills and location.

When you find a job ad that interests you, click on the “Propose” button and send a proposal to the client. Be sure to include your hourly rate and a brief summary of your experience in your proposal.

If you’re not actively looking for work, you can still get offers from clients by having an excellent profile. Be sure to fill out your profile completely, including your skills, experience, education, and samples of your work. Client reviews are also important, so be sure to ask your previous clients for reviews and testimonials.

The best way to get offers on UpWork is to have a complete and well-written profile, actively apply for jobs that match your skillset, and stay active on the platform. By following these tips, you’ll be sure to land quality clients and gigs in no time!
