This Method Worked For Me To Gain My First Hourly Long Term Client On Upwork
How to Land Clients on Upwork No Matter Your Skill Level
No matter your experience level, it can be a challenge to land clients on Upwork — a freelancing platform that features jobs seeking skilled people from software developers to writers. But it doesn’t have to be.
Securing clients requires focus. With the right focus, there are several ways to secure freelance clients for your business or side hustle.
Just to give a little background, it took a while to get my first client through Upwork. I failed to get responses after submitting multiple proposals to potential clients.
The thing about freelancing is, you need to remember to keep going when you encounter challenges or failures.
“Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm,” — Winston Churchill.
I finally received my first job offer through Upwork after sending proposals for three months with no response. At first, I targeted jobs that were looking for one writer. Eventually, I learned that it’s best to apply to jobs that are looking for multiple writers.
