I hope this message finds you well. As a graphic/logo designer on Upwork, I've been trying to secure long-term jobs for the past few months. Despite my best efforts, I haven't been able to find the right fit for my skills and expertise.
I am reaching out to the community for help and advice on how to improve my chances of landing long-term clients. I have a portfolio of high-quality work and I am committed to providing excellent service to my clients. However, I recognize that there may be areas where I can improve my approach or strategy.
If anyone has any tips, tricks, or advice on how to secure long-term jobs as a graphic/logo design freelancer on Upwork, I would greatly appreciate it. I am open to constructive feedback and willing to put in the work to improve my chances of success.
Thank you for taking the time to read this post. I look forward to hearing from the community and working towards building a successful freelance career on Upwork.

Hello freelancer fellows!
I am a 2D artist and illustrator with over 3 years experience. Im new here on this platform and i've finished my profile. After spending all of free connects on 8 jobs (with all level of difficulty), i received no answer from client (actually i received 2 responds but they're scammers). I am writing this job to receive some helpful tips and some review about my profile from you-my fellows to get my first clients on this platform.
I hope i can get some advice from you soon to improve my profile
Thanks
