Do you struggle to get Upwork clients to respond? Does it feel impossible to land interviews? Do you know 100% for sure you’re qualified for the job…yet still you get ignored? If so this course might help.
Freelancing is hard work. Especially when it comes to attracting high-paying Upwork clients. Just when you find a good one, you’re up against 20 to 30 proposals. So how do you get ahead, and how do you get stand out?
Do you:
-
Send proposals every day but clients just won’t give you a chance?
-
Have relevant experience, even a degree, but nobody cares?
-
Feel sick of getting passed over for other, less-qualified freelancers?
These exact problems lead many freelancers to give up or quit. They send templates to be faster – to try to get their proposal in first, and they still don’t get a response. They talk about their experience but it’s crickets.
The real problem? It’s not the effort you’re putting in. It’s your process. Because clients are looking for something VERY specific from you. It’s not a template. It’s not your experience. It’s DEFINITELY not your degree. Instead, clients want to know that you are someone who can really help them. They want to know that you can get the job done, and done right!
Okay, so I need to prove I’m the best, but how do I do that? Simple, you have to change your process. You have to approach proposals differently from everyone else. You have to show you care about the client, and prove you’re someone competent and trustworthy.
In short, you have to:
-
Prove you can get the job done quickly, well and without a lot of instruction
-
Show clients you are a credible authority without talking about your experience or degrees
-
Help clients see that you are competent, so they feel comfortable hiring you
Inside, you will discover how to:
-
Stop making the same instant-reject mistakes as every other freelancer
-
Craft proposals that ONLY give clients exactly what they need from you
-
Improve your process to boost proposal responses fast!
In this course I’ll show you a simple, repeatable process that continues to work to this day! Once you learn this method, and properly apply it, your results will change.
Instead of burning connects faster than a blowtorch burns gasoline you’ll send way less proposals and get way more responses. You’ll stop spamming clients and come across authentic and useful. Plus, you’ll show clients you really care, and make yourself stand out even when there are already 50 proposals and 10 interviews lined up.
This is the EXACT system my students who broke six-figures use. It’s the EXACT system I used to go from $0.00 to $100.00 an hour in my first month freelancing. It’s also the system I used to build a second Upwork account to full-time income levels in less than a month from scratch with NO DEGREE, NO PORTFOLIO, AND NO EXPERIENCE LISTED. Thousands of my students use this system to get results every single day. And when you learn to properly apply it you will get results too.
ONE QUICK NOTE To really stand out, you MUST go beyond templates. You must ACTUALLY CARE about helping clients get the results they want. You need to want to go the extra mile to show them that difference. That means customizing each and every proposal. It means trying harder and taking your time on each one. As a result, you will spend LESS time applying overall.
That’s what I’m going to teach you here. How to prove your worth in words. How to grab attention like a gun to the forehead. How to give clients a clear, direct path to view you as the best person for the job.
Let other freelancers blab about their skills and experience. When you take this course, you can beat every one of them, even when a ton already applied. Because inside this course I will show you a better way. A proven system that teaches you:
-
How to send fewer proposals than ever and get way more responses in less time
-
A simple technique I use to attract high-pay clients even when 20-30 people already applied
-
Profound psychological techniques to get noticed and stand out like a beacon in the night
-
Useful NLP tactics that help you bypass client objections and compel them to respond
-
How to prove you care about your clients and that you can help them better than anyone else!
There ARE templates in this course, but this ISN’T a template course!!!!!!! Do NOT expect to win gigs by copying templates!!!!!!!! Instead, I’ll show you what works for me, and how you can apply it to your own proposals to get better results. If that makes sense for you, scroll up and enroll now!
