Hello guys!
Thanks for reading.
I need help to improve my profile, I'm not getting any work after 2 months of sending proposals. I'm quite new on upwork but i have been working for 8 years and I know how get things done. But nobody even tries my services! 😞
What I am doing wrong?
Cheers!

The OP is not even a writer, so points 1 and 3 are not even relevant, let alone helpful.
And why would a freelancer offer a free gift with the 'order'? lol.

Hi Agustin,
I am not a software developer, so I won't be able to comment on the specific skills that you have mentioned. However, this sentence from your profile needs to go. 'I'm very perfectionist and I like to get things done in the best way to achieve the goal that is providing a excellent engagement with the user and change the way of living of them.'
It really means nothing - just some fluff.
Instead, write briefly more about the type of projects you have done.
All the best!
Also, are you sending out tailor-made proposals for each job after carefully evaluating whether you have what it takes to do it successfully? Apply only to relevant jobs with a new well-written proposal every time.

Thanks Prachi!
I'll take that into account to improve my profile! 🙂
My writing skills are not so good 😞
Something like this is ok?
"I developed apps with video processing using FFMPEG, live streaming, a uber style for carpooling and even an IOT (internet of things) application to control your own heater from your smartphone with geofencing as an option to turn on / off depending on your current location."
Cheers
