Kousalya,
Like Sophie stated, you do not have be available to send proposals and interact with clients. However, as a graphic designer myself, I would continue to update your profile before sending proposals to clients.
For example, I would add more substance, focus a little more on the potential client, and add some spacing. Something like:
Hi, I'm a Certified Graphic Designer (FITA) with 6 months of experience. I love to work with creative projects and my goal is to help my clients bring their visions to reality by designing colorful, trendy, attractive graphics within their schedules and budgets!
|
I would also add more graphics design skills to your Skills list. I would add Flyer Design, Logo Design, Brochure Design, Banner Ad Design, Poster Design and a few more. We are allowed a maximum of 15 skills, so I would use all 15, since clients often search Upwork by skill category.
After that, I would update my Portfolio by adding some of your Fiverr images to your Upwork portfolio.

The availability badge does not need to be ON to send proposals and interact with clients.
