To submit a proposal, update your profile rate to $3/hour or more

Can someone advise on what I can do to add my hourly rate?

Can't see anything in profile options for 'Rate' etc

 

I am setup for myself, not as part of an Agency as I am freelance.

Hi Ged,

 

You will need to add an hourly rate to your profile in order to be able to start sending proposals. 
You can add an hourly rate by going to your profile > hovering with the mouse right of your profile title and clicking on the pencil icon. Thank you.

Hi Ged,

 

Just to confirm, you`re not seeing a pencil case on your end? Thank you.

Hi Ged,

 

I`m sorry about the confusion. Please go to Find Work > My Profile > and then next to your profile title you should see a pencil case where you can edit your hourly rate. Thank you.

No there is nowhere to enter rate. Can you look at my profile settings?

Hi Siva,

 

You aren't able to change your hourly rate because you're an exclusive member of your agency. This is something only Agency Owners, Business Managers, and Admins can edit for their exclusive agency members. You can learn more about the differences between Exclusive and Non-Exclusive agency members from this page.

Hi Ravi Raj,

 

You aren't currently a member of any Agency, so you should be able to switch your hourly rate on your own. Go to your profile page and click on the pencil icon that's next to your current hourly rate. Don't hesitate to let us know if you need further assistance.
