Top Rated but only 3 invitations in a month

Hi,
I got Top Rated badge from Upwork a month ago. In the meantime, I received only 3 invitations and It was early on the first week after I received my badge. It's been again around a month and I received no further invitations.

Would like to have some help/suggestions from the community about this issue. Thanks.

Is there any way or something that I could have some more invitations or so? Having no invitations for a long time is kind of a weird feelings maybe.

Hi Upwork Community!

 

I hope everyone will be in good health. I just wanted to know, why I'm not getting any work after becoming Top rated plus freelancer. I'm submitting proposals but have still been unable to get any response since last month. I'm also desperately looking to enter in private talent clouds to get chances for winning the jobs easily.

 

Can someone help me out with how I can get new projects easily by reaching out to professional clients although I'm a top-rated plus freelancer?

 

Looking forward to your great opinion in this regard.

 

Shahab

May be, as some one (Elena) in the forums said:

Why would you care about invitations at all? you can browse through the entire list of jobs available on the platform and send proposals to whatever you find interesting and a good fit. It's much easier for you to find the best project than it is for the project to find you.

This isn't an issue. The only issue might be your expectation that being top rated leads to lots of invitations. I don't believe that's true at all.

Yeah maybe you're right and I'm kinda feeling the same way now that maybe It's my expectation. Thanks anyway, It was helpful.

3 In a week or month, if that is true, you are lucky. Am lucky to get one a month.

3 in the very first week I became top rated. Then no invitations in a month after that.

Sir, I was told a badge would put me on cruise control to riches. Did I waste my time bragging on reddit that I'm top rated?
