Starting a contract...

[woodygvo]

We have a question in my Upwork group: 

Say a customer contacts you via (messages???) and you negotiate a price. Is there a method you can create an offer? Or do they have to start a contract?

The answer might come in handy. Thanks.

How? Without a job post and invite?

The client has to hire the freelancer.

You mean those horrid "direct messages"? All the ones I got were scams!
