Hey guys, I'm thinking of learning video editing is it a very lucrative skill on upwork? I'm actually new to this stuff. |

Please, guys, help review my profile. I have been on this Upwork thing for a while now but haven't had any job. Please, help me out! |

Dollywood: Please, bro, remove that video as soon as possible. - What were you doing with your lips? - Why did it take you so long to define copywriting? - Who told you that copywriting is "selling products, marketing... with the power of words?" - It was never a good idea to include "You know what I'm saying" and "I'm here for you guys." Just remove the video; it flies in the face of the professionalism and expertise you're trying to portray. Never try to wing it when you're shooting an important video. Prepare a good script first, and then practice, practice, practice! Finally, choose a good location to film. Ensure you set your phone down correctly so that the video doesn't shake. Besides, I looked through your portfolio, and your copies are wordy, aggressive (the first one), erroneous, and unconvincing. A good copywriter must be convincing and persuasive and not sound like a snake oil salesperson. Here is how you ended your overview: You're just one click away from HIRING ME! So what's stopping you? See what I mean by aggressive? No one in their right mind will hire someone that writes like they'd be difficult to deal with. Your overview says nothing about your experience, skill-set, or tools of the trade. Omissions like these are typical of newbies trying to get into the big leagues after only watching a few videos. I hope my review has been of help. Good luck. Robisky001: Where's the link to your profile? 2 Likes |

qtguru: @qtguru Thanks for your comments on this thread and Nairaland at large, have learnt alots from all your comments but I have few questions. I am a bit confused. I want to kickstart my freelancing journey on Upwork, I am a UI/UX designer (no great portfolio for now though, am working on a Shopify template in Adobe XD and some projects with the hope to add them as portfolio), I once tried Fiverr but it's not working out (copywriting though). I know JS and basics of PHP and I want to learn react later but seeing most people commenting that platform development is a way to make it as a developer, and I saw your comments about google chrome extension , WordPress theme and webflow and the video links but couldn't access those links. 1 Do I need to get certified to be a Shopify developer and create themes after Knowing liquid. 2. Can I combine web development with UI/UX and offer services on Upwork. 3. Which one will you advice between frontend development (React), theme development (Shopify and WordPress) or Google chrome extension and airtable. Just need to start something. 2 Likes |

Robisky001: - Change your picture. It's not even good enough for a dating site, let alone Upwork, a freelance platform that brings you in front of employees the world over. - You said you write at 15,000 keystrokes per hour (60 words per minute) with 100% accuracy? 100%?? Take it easy with the spice, na. Haba! - You put "Notable mention skills" on your overview. What does that phrase mean? What skills are you referring to? List them. - You also put "I am the best of the bunch!!!" on your overview. Why would you ever think that portrays you as a professional, let alone an adult? Please, take your profile overview seriously. It's your pitch to clients. - Remove "Shoot me a ping right away so we can get started immediately." "Shoot" isn't a word you want to use anyhow, considering today's climate. That call-to-action is bad, so use something else; for example, "If I sound like the data entry expert you need, hit me up and let's chat about your next project." |

N2B2:pls does this mean I'll lose all my 130 connects? If yes how can I avoid it pls?

Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by N2B2: 12:19am On Jun 21, 2022 |
Japhet04: Connects expire after 1 year, so you'll lose the connects you bought last year. Use your connects now. Apply to jobs and boost them to increase your chances of getting hired. |

Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by qtguru(m): 10:37am On Jun 21, 2022 |
Adv14: 1. No you don't need anything 2. Yes 3. It depends on which catches your Interest, Airtable/Shopify and WordPress actually requires some React knowledge so better to learn React and use them for those platforms. Regards |

DabFrankNG: My only advice is to list the VA tools you are familiar with, e.g Notion / Asana / Google Docs and all, this looks too vague as to what type of VA you are. |

Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by Nobody: 7:35am On Jun 28, 2022 |
