Hi Muhammad,

Your profile visibility has been updated. Submitting proposals doesn't always guarantee that you will get hired or get a chance to be interviewed, but you shouldn't give up on sending proposals to potential clients. You may check our Resource Corner and find some excellent topics there:

• Submitting a Winning Proposal on Upwork
• Make Your Freelancer Profile More Visible & Appealing
• Enhance Your Freelancer Profile for Greater Success

When you apply for jobs, make sure your proposal is well written and that you're absolutely qualified and certain of your ability to complete the job you're applying for.

Thank you!

Hi Bojan,

I made some $$ in my last task. I'm trying to buy connects without much success. When I click on the "buy connects" button, the page navigates away to the Billing Information landing page.

Is there a way to utilize the amount earned rather than buying via the billing portal?

Best,

Liddon

Hi Liddon,

Yes you can purchase Connects with your earnings as well but only once they are available on your account. At the moment your earnings are under the Pending stage. To view in what stage your earnings are, go to Reports > Overview. Thank you.
