dinachi: sorry, just saw your post, have you sorted it out? I had the same problem for days, though in my case the reason given was that my connection was not secure. eventually, i googled and found several suggestions as to what to do. I tried some and the next day I could open fiverr. I don't know precisely what worked. |

boladale: Request forbidden is a minor issue. If you continue visiting these sites you will experience it often. Anytime you got this info, just disconnect and reconnect your modem. That will work. |

victor101: HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS. HOPE I MET YOU ALL WELL? I THOUGHT I'D SHARE THIS HERE. How to Manage Client Expectations Freedom and flexibility of freelancing comes with the responsibility of managing expectations with many clients, who often differ in what they’re asking for, or expecting during a project. Thus, it’s not surprising that often freelancers dealing with an upset client come looking for help. However, it is never late to turn the situation around and positive feedback from a grateful customer who had been frustrated and disappointed only a few days before is worth a lot. Here are a few common tips that we have heard from experienced freelancers when it comes to setting, managing and updating expectations with a client: An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Always make sure you clearly understand the assignment, scope, deadlines and client’s expectations before you accept an offer. Ask questions, discuss and document all the terms and milestones. Consider everything that could wrong on a project and do your best to prevent it. Suggest breaking a fixed price contract into smaller, more manageable milestones or talk to your client about the weekly limit and allowing Manual Time on an hourly contract should you need it. Many experienced freelancers especially in the “Writing/Translation” and “Design” categories always make sure to specify the number of revisions they are able to offer. As A GURU. likes to say: “underpromise and overdeliver.” Communicate, communicate, communicate. Among the most common client complaints we receive is freelancers going unresponsive or missing, so we can’t stress enough how important it is to communicate often and professionally. If the client expressed their concerns with what’s being delivered, ask clarifying questions, listen carefully to what they have to say and propose possible solutions. Don’t be pushed around It’s very important to be able to take responsibility and improve your service when you didn’t deliver as well as expected. However, it doesn’t mean that you need to put up with unreasonable demands, endless revisions and groundless refund or discount requests. Politely, yet firmly, explain to the client that you have done what was asked of you, and will be able to make changes but at your posted rate and within a certain time frame. Have you had projects that you lost sleep over? How did you handle them? Did you manage to turn an unhappy client into a long-term loyal customer? Please, share your experience and tips.

ranson: Not everyone that is invited to an interview is granted one. It is just like when elance was active, clients invite you to place a bid, that is the same way client invites you to an interview; it does not guarantee that the interview will hold. It can be possible that the client have spoken to someone else and are happy for them to work with him. When a client invites you for an interview, you have the opportunity whilst accepting to explain your understanding of the project as reading through that first phase can make them want to talk further with you. |

I have been invited to an interview but since I filled the interview and respond to the client's message I have not seen any other message from him yet on my dashboard am seeing active candidacy. each time I log in its the same thing. My Response: Hi Danyl, It could be that the client has chosen another candidate for the job, simply click on : "Proposal" on the top menu, then click on the exact job under "active candidacies" .Check the right side under "activity for this job" to see if he has hired someone else, if he hasn't, send him a reminder message to know if the job is still vacant and your willingness to tackle the job. UPWORK INTERVIEW: HOW IT WORKS When you are invited for an interview by a client, it means the client had searched you out from the pool of freelancers on Upwork and decided to invite you to bid on the job. I'll not treat this topic without dishing out some advice/tips. MY ADVICE Please respond to all job invite in less than 24hrs. This is necessary to boost your "Response Time" which displays on the right side of Upwok profile. see screenshot below (see red arrow) and Also shown on your Upwork search result profile as see in your profile setting page screenshot attached (see red arrow). Also, even when you are declining such invitation, It is important you respond in less than 24hrs. With the 24hrs response time on your profile, Clients who search for you will be rest assured of a response in less than 24hrs. Moreso, your profile pops up frequently on search results. On my next post, I'll write on Upwork Job Success Score . Shalom! 1 Like 1 Share
