My last small-time project was of 6 months. And as I mentioned in my letter I sincerely enjoyed those 6 months. But no matter what I do now, and how much relevant job posts I now apply to, I don't get any response. I have a great track record, subscribed to upwork membership; the profile is visible, I apply to relevant job posts with precise cover letters. Can you kindly shed more light on how a full-timer can turn it around faster?
Can you really not understand how a full-time dedicated programmer can turn around projects faster than someone who does this on the side? Like, is this so beyond your wildest imagination? None of the other stuff you mentioned matters. Your issue is that you're a part timer and the only way you could extend a deadline because you're just doing this part time is if you give the client a deal or you have a skill set that isn't commonly found on Upwork. They have too many other options and you're going into this with a disadvantage.
You are also trying to be a PM part time, and that just ain't ever gonna work out. If you think you can PM on the side, you've obviously never PM'd in your life.
