New on UpWork - No Replies

[4fd0f8c2]

Hi Everyone, 

I am brand new to the site and have read through quite a few of these forums on how to start and how to be successful as a freelancer. However, I am not receiving any feedback or replies on any of my proposals. I would love some extra advice on how to get started as most of the requirements are for freelancers that have a standing reputation, star ratings, or minimum earnings etc. 

I have mostly sent proposals to adverts that have less than 10 interested freelancers. 

All or any advice would be highly appreciated. 

Wishing you a lovely day!!

Hi Vee,

Submitting proposals doesn't always guarantee that you will get hired or get a chance to be interviewed, but you shouldn't give up on sending proposals to potential clients. You may check our Resource Corner and find some excellent topics there:

When you apply for jobs, make sure your proposal is well written and that you're absolutely qualified and certain of your ability to complete the job you're applying for.

Thanks!
