Hey everyone, I am Zoraiz Khan, a new entrant here. 
I started my Upwork profile about 2 months back, and finally landed and completed 2 successful jobs! My jobs, 
I created 2 specialized profiles, one focusing on content/article writing & the other pertaining to graphics designing as a Canva Pro Expert. 
What I've learnt so far;

-The importance of sending custom proposals according to the job type!

-Your confidence, while submitting your proposal!

-Do not follow the same template in every proposal!

-Your profie look

-Portfolio

-Ability to convince the client about your quality of work, and your portfolio.

-Give solutions to the client's problems in your proposal

-Consistency! I had spent 3+ hours looking for jobs that matched my skills 

-Learn how to bid, if you are 100& sure about the job. (extremely important)

-Put in the right skills, in your skill tab so that jobs show up according to your skills.

I have yet to learn a lot more, but this is what I have learned so far.

Best of luck to all the Upworkers, and do not lose hope!
