Project Catalog

Hello everyone, I have question to you. Client purchased my project catalog, After get the requirement I started work. Client was happy to my work, He asked for revision and I gave him couple of revisions. Then client asked for the final file, After provide the final work then client showing some lame excuse that he don't want to pay me.

Is there any solution? How can I get paid from a project catalog?

Thanks, Raju

ACCEPTED SOLUTION

Hi Md. Raju,

 

Project Catalog is where you let clients come to you. When you create a project, it displays as a listing that clients can open to learn more. Clients find you by searching for the skills and services you offer.

 

When you create a project we will first review it before making it visible to clients. Our review includes making sure your project is complete, looks professional, and doesn’t violate our Terms of Service. Please allow up to five business days for your project to be reviewed.

 

Thank you,

 

 

NOTICE:

We are currently receiving more projects for review than usual. Please allow us longer than usual to review your project.

Upwork Team !! The project catalog did not approve. It already had taken 15 days. Please approve it and guide me on what needs to do. it is just embarrassing. Please review as much as fast possible.

 

I'm sorry to hear that your project catalog submission has not been approved yet. Please note that the approval process can take some time as Upwork reviews each submission carefully to ensure that it meets the necessary guidelines and standards.

To increase your chances of getting your project catalog approved, make sure that your submission is clear and concise, and that it accurately represents the services you offer. You should also make sure that your pricing is competitive and that you have provided all the necessary information, such as your qualifications and experience.

If your submission has been rejected, Upwork will provide you with feedback on why it was rejected and what you can do to improve it. You can also reach out to Upwork support for further assistance and guidance.

I hope this helps!

My project catalog is still under review

Hi Deepak,

 

Due to the high volume of requests our team has received, they are currently experiencing delays in completing the project catalog reviews. Please allow time for our team to complete the review process. If they require any additional steps, they will notify you directly.

But my friend's catalog gets approved within 7 hours.

Hello Joanne,

It has been 17 days and my project catalog is still under review.
You are doing this to me as I am a new freelancer. I have seen that one of my friends,s Catlog gets approved in under 7 -8 hours because he is a top-rated Freelancer.

And in my case, you are saying that your team is busy. This is not a good thing.

I have a wide skillset and would like to post quite a few projects for potential clients to consider. Fivver limits this to 7 for new people and that is no good. So is there a limit on this platform? Thanks!

I submitted my project almost a MONTH ago and it is still 'under review', much more than the promised 5 business days maximum. I have had no communication as to why it has been delayed.

Hi Trinh, 

Projects are reviewed by the order they were received. Once the team gets to your project in their queue, they will check it and reach out to you if additional information is needed.

I have a question regarding Zoom consultations.  Is the Projects area where you list those?  I see other Freelancers offering various Zoom consultations with varying lengths but I'm not sure where those go when building my profile.

Hi Jake,

 

Please know that Rising Talent, Top Rated, Top Rated Plus, and Expert Vetted talent are the ones able to create up to three total consultations in any category.

Is there a section I can go to that I can better understand what those mean and how I get those designations?  I'd really like to make this work and I want to make sure I do things right.

 

Hi Jake,

 

Thank you for your response. Consultations can help you meet more clients, develop more powerful relationships, and build your reputation as a trusted advisor. Setting them up correctly on Upwork lets you set your rate and availability, request information from clients, and book meetings all in one convenient location.

 

As Andrea mentioned in her response, you’ll need to be Rising Talent, Top Rated, Top Rated Plus, or Expert-Vetted to offer consultation. You can create up to three consultations in total, and they can be in any work category available.

 

To learn more about the steps to set up your consultation project, feel free to check this help article. I hope this helps.

My project is still under review. it has been 20 days since i have submitted it. How long it will take to approve?

Hi Nisar,

 

Typically, the review process for a project catalog submission on Upwork can take up to 10 business days. However, in some cases, it might take longer due to a high volume of submissions or other factors.

 

Since it's been 20 days since you submitted your project, I recommend reaching out to Upwork Support for an update on your project's status. You can do this by visiting the Help Center (https://support.upwork.com/) and clicking on the "Get Help" button. From there, you can either start a live chat with a support agent or submit a support ticket explaining your situation.

 

Additionally, make sure to check your email (including spam folders) for any communication from Upwork regarding your project catalog submission, as they may have requested additional information or revisions.

 

Best of luck, and I hope your project gets approved soon.
