Details of points making winning profile.
Be original.
It means when we make our profile to any freelancing websites and all of them requires some basic things from you. And newcomers don’t take them so serious. Like your profile pic, your bio, hobbies, your interests etc. etc. people often ignore them. They upload picture of some cartoon instead of themselves. They leave blank the bio and hobbies section. Please don’t do this upload your good-looking picture put valid and meaningful information in hobbies and bio section.
Tell all about yourself.
This point doesn’t mean that you started telling about your life stories or about your privacy feature instead be professional don’t write that I have 6 brothers and 2 sisters like something…no one going to care and more over this show how immature you are and how unprofessional you are if you put some nonsense information the client will going to ignore you no matter how capable you are. Client thinks you are too immature to handle his project. So be careful and put professional valuable information.
Give your positive portfolio.
As you have completed some of work in freelancing or in your other professional life put this work. Try to put your positive stars and reviews above the list. It is ok and natural that not everyone could give 100 % output if you have some negative reviews in some of your work also show them it will give a natural look to your profile.
Upload a short video of yourself and about your work.
Make a small video of yourself and about your work. In this video, you must show you self if you have good communication skills. Like ‘’ hello guy my name is mubashar I am mechanical engineer I have done floo flaw etc. etc. projects and what I learn from them is etc. etc.’’ make regular video of your achievements and upload them at least once a month.
How to make wonderfully attractive bid.
1- Bid according to your skill only (do not bid that you cannot do and then you and your client both feel embarrass at end it is highly unprofessional and it will ruin your reputation)
2- Start with greetings (You can call your client with name or some greeting words like dear. friend, brother etc.)
3- Read bid description carefully and write it in your own words at the start. (it shows the client that you have fully understand what does he want and it also shows your professional behavior which is eventually going to get trust for you)
4- Tell about your past work. (For new users just leave it and don’t try to fill this with false statements.)
5- Offer them something for free. it may be some sample. (send them a sample work like if client has put some numerical solve one of them and send him this act is hard but it highly increases your chance of getting award and if you not get project now its ok client will be going to remember you for next time. You can also send sample from your past work.)
6- Closing must be confidence like “this is not something new for me I know how to deal with your work”
Most important them all get testimonials and some good from your client after you have done your work to show them on your profile.
If you have any questions you can ask freely. This is not an internet research so you cannot find these point at any website. These points are fully based on experience.
