Amy,

 

What does a Wordpress Moderator do? Can you say a little bit about that? Do you have experience or successes that you could write about?

Hi Mike, pls review my profile

Priyanka,

Hope I got your name right ... I'm not wearing my reading glasses.

First, welcome to Upwork.

 

Second ... your write-up is OK. It really seems, in general, like you could say more. Fashion is a very passionate field. I wonder if you don't have more to say about it that would convince me you know what you're talking about. Where did you train? What styles do you admire? Just a little more would help.

But here's the line that stopped me. You wrote:

 

"I will provide you with designs that will speak directly to your target customer, maximising your sales!"

 

Of course, that's the perfect thing to say. It really is. That's exactly what people want to hear. But it made me very suspicious.

 

So, I'm just challenging you ... can you write a sentence or two that validates that lofty statement? What's your track record? Have you maximized sales for someone before? Can you tell us something that, essentially, proves that sentence is true?

Now ... having said that ... the word "maximize" is very, very, very odd. It means there could not be any higher sales no matter what .... so it's kind of "overkilli" to use that word. More honestly, you might say "I helped improve sales." Maximize ... that's like saying "I got it perfect." You just need a slightly softer statement. You don't want to make promises you can't really keep up with ... 

I do love the drawings ... and I know you can do this ... It's just my job to challenge you.

Thank you for the feedback. I shall review and improvise my lines.

How can I request someone to visit and review my profile please guide me!

 

Saddam,

 

Very nice profile! Now follow these TIPS to submit proposals:

 

COVER LETTER: Create a flexible cover letter that is less than 100 words. Long cover letters rarely get read, but instead are ignored. Break the cover letter into four sections. Section 1 : Acknowledge the job that you are applying for such as "Looking forward to discussing your graphics design project". Section 2: Highlight your validations stamps IE skills that are brought to their project. Section 3 Explain how you will solve their problem and the final section request an Upwork Zoom call to discuss their project.

Request for feedback on my profile 

Shallon,

 

Here are some quick TIPS to modifying your profile. Have a great day!

 

PROFILE: Always complete your Upwork Profile before applying for Jobs. Create a Title and Skills to apply for Jobs to match what Clients are searching for. Use one or two of the Skill keywords in the Title to emphasize what you bring to the table for the Client. Create 3 or 4 short paragraphs in the Summary. If the Summary is too long, most Clients will not read the rest of your Profile; too short then there isn't enough information for a Client to hire. Use all 15 Skills IF they apply. The Skills are used to assist a Client in locating your Profile via search. Add your Portfolio and always use a colorful image. Consider adding a Project Catalog if it applies. By the way, it goes without saying make sure that your Profile Settings are on Public not Private so others can view the Profile.
