Virtual Assistant and Data Entry

Hello there!

I request my profile be reviewed in general. I am looking forward to working with clients to gain experience and help other freelancers in the future.

The link to my profile is https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~01b6ddcea8e6709355

 

 

Best Regards,

Cecilia

Hello Cecilia,

 

Overall, I think your profile looks okay, but I have a few recommendations for improvement:

 

1) Remove this from your overview/summary:

 

"Hello there! I am Cecilia"

 

I recommend removing this because when clients search for freelancers, only the first 200-225 characters of your summary are shown. This means you have very little space (approximately two short sentences) to get their attention. You want clients to see their goals (your services and results) in this small space. You should avoid wasting space with greetings and names; clients can already see your name on your profile.

2) Add a portfolio to show samples of previous work or to demonstrate your skills. The portfolio is a chance to make a positive first impression on potential clients. If you don’t have relevant examples to add to your portfolio, you can create items that demonstrate your skills.

 

3) You should also consider adding a project catalog. The project catalog allows you to setup a pre-packaged service that clients can buy without you sending a proposal. Due to higher than usual requests for project catalogs, reviews and approvals are taking 10 to 30 days to complete. Read Get Started With Project Catalog for more information.

 

Your skills list and employment history look good.

 

Good luck!
