Bro keep up the good work 💯
Great tips! Thank you for the video!
Loved how simple stuff makes all the difference. Thanks Nico!
Awesome ❤
I'm sorry, but he's not good at English. If you don't understand, my English is Murad, from Ethiopia.
Bro keep quiet 🙊
Hi Niko, how are you? The content I'm working on is really good for me. It's very useful for me.
Love your video sir
Thanks for sharing this information but I have a question that, what is the maximum time limit to respond a job post!
Can you review my upwork profile sir?
Wow, this is a lot to implement, thank you for this!
❤❤❤
what 10k in 3 month. this is below average.. this is not even 1,5k monthly after taxes,.. why would someone work for so less? Upwork and all the other freelancing platforms are such a scam, to get cheap work done. Poor Companies using it to get cheap work. often they have to hire afterwards someone so they really get what they want. so its just a waste of money if you Hire on Fiver, Upwork and co. also your 100k is very less for 1 year. how do you pay bills with that? after taxes and rent, morgage. there is nothing left for food. idk how do you survive? so many youtuber.. talking about making money.. but they are on youtube.. get it..?!? If you have no Income proof, shut up and stop scamming people.
Insightful Thanks Nicole... Are you on Twitter?
Yeah you can find me at @Nico_Hessel
how do you pay your VA: is it fixed monthly payment or based on the conversion rate?
I pay my VA per hour, and she has a set # of hours per week. And on average it takes her 1 hour to apply to 5 jobs - I also give her bonuses when we book meetings and sign clients
I love your content always can we still send our upwork description for reviews😊

I'm starting my profile on upwork. Thank you for this efficient, direct, and powerful video, Nico!
Of course, glad you enjoyed it!! And thanks for the support!!
❤
Very help full thanks❤
Awesome - happy to hear that!!
There are really a lot of things to learn to get clients on Upwork, but always worth it!
Always worth it 💯
Thanks very much bro for sharing this. I would always support you 💯
Of course - thanks for the support!!
@NicoHessel no problem, can we send our profile for review?
Hii. I landed my first client on upwork for $5. How do i get more clients and what is the time I should complete a project for fixed price project (let's say I can complete in 3 hours)
Sir Nico, thank you so much for this. It really will help me get some clients to get a better view of me. Moreover, the Upwork Profile SEO Video had some juicy info too!
i will love to private chat you
Hi Nico! Could you please tell me if you know anything about getting through the ID verification on Upwork nowadays? I took all the photos and completed the entire process last Sunday, but I'm still seeing that red warning saying 'Action required: Verify your identity to continue winning jobs on Upwork. Get started.' What should I do? Apparently, the Upwork support team has been taken down, so it's been hard to figure out what I should do to resolve this. Thanks!
Is it still that way?
Nice, didn't know about that change :)
Please do a free discord group will definitely join ❤

you forget best match
Yeah lol the best match tag is in beta testing and it shows up on 90% of proposals so it's essentially pointless. Not sure when Upwork will fix this, it's had this issue since they launched it.
This a beta, doesnt show on mine
This view shows up on my client account and I confirmed it with a handful of other client accounts. There are certain features in the client POV that are in Beta such as the 'Best Match' tag, which is essentially pointless as they put it on 90% of proposals, but I believe the updated view is a site wide change.
This is great! Now I can fix all my mistakes😅😅
haha great!
Hi Nico, I really appreciate your work and your efforts to help freelancers like us. I wanted to share something with you based on my experience. Not all clients are the same, and just like people, they vary, sometimes depending on the country they’re from. I’ve noticed many times, about 50% of the time, that freelancers win jobs even though their bids might rate 2 out of 10 if judged objectively. Sometimes their proposals are just one or two lines, and most of the time, they are copy-paste templates. Even their profile pictures-if rated-might be 5 out of 10, with some even using images of animals or other graphics. Yet, they win the job. So, my point is: why do they win the job? It’s not because of their profile picture or cover letter. It’s because they have a good number of reviews and have completed many jobs. Often, clients are looking for freelancers with a good success rate or positive reviews. This example is based on my experience with Freelancer.com, but I believe Upwork works similarly. And one more thing-most of the time, clients don’t even scroll to the second page or look through all the proposals. The reason I say this is that many of my bids haven’t even been viewed by the client. So, I believe it also has to do with the algorithm. No matter how hard you try, if Upwork or Freelancer.com doesn’t prioritize your bid or put it at the top, you’re unlikely to get the job. The reason I’m saying this is because I’m new to Upwork, and after 3 months, I’m still looking for my first job. I’ve submitted many well-crafted proposals, some even including actual samples tailored to the client's job, but with no response. This proves that clients tend to prefer those with ratings or a good job success rate, even if the proposal quality is not the best. Thanks again for your videos. I’ve learned so much from them.
This is very helpful! Thanks!
Glad to hear that!!
Hi, Nico. Thanks for your video; it's really valuable for those just starting out. Right now, I'm working as an intermediary on UpWork and planning to establish my own agency. The main issue I’m facing is the extremely low budgets offered by clients. We focus on developing mobile applications and applications for cryptocurrency and blockchain, which doesn’t seem like it should be inexpensive, as it requires solid expertise and there's a limited number of professionals in this field. But when you spend a week talking with a client, really getting into their needs, suggesting solutions, and then finally quote a price of $900 only to find out they have just $200, it makes me question if UpWork is the right path. My team is based across Europe and Asia, and I understand that working for a week for $200 is simply not feasible, even in places like India. This is the core issue right now-almost every project ends up with a problem around pricing. What’s the best way to handle this? I’d be grateful if you could share any advice or connect me with agency owners in the software development field.
Wow Nico! I'd love to have that dedication and determination to be outstanding, this shows that there's no secret rather it's consistency that drives success, congrats!
Thank you for bringing all this valuable information for free! Upwork seems to be something that worth trying💯💯
Much informative, Nico. Thank you
Hello sir please please reply i have submited my nationla identity and also appears on camera now they are saying for manual verification so how much chances are for my successfull verification and what further documents they may be ask from me please please please
One Thing I was thinking about hiring it is probably best to join a community people are building their freelance business if you are freelancer What do you think?
Great Video Nico as a member in the paid community those are real testimonials!!
Wow! That's a lot of money, especially here in the Philippines 💯
Thanks!!!
Hi SingNanthes!
I'm hiring a Upwork cover letter writing expert $12/hr would you like to apply mate and write proposal for me it helps me to believe that the video's you're making are really worth the time or just you're trying to make money through your RUclips ':)
If you're looking for help writing cover letters you should check out my free and premium Upwork communities. I have resources on cover letter writing in both of them. There are people in both those communities who may be open to that position you're hiring for.
First of all, you need to understand why people use copy-paste templates. I am not talking about those who have good reviews and have done a lot of jobs. They shouldn't use this approach at any cost. As a beginner, I personally don’t use them, but I try to submit proposals as quickly as possible, within 5-10 minutes. Despite this, 95% of my proposals aren't seen by clients. So, what's the point of crafting a perfect proposal if the client never sees it? As I mentioned, I am new to upwork. You might say that experienced freelancers with many reviews and high job success rates rank higher in the bid section. But for newcomers like me, submitting quick proposals is crucial to getting noticed. To do this, we either use copy-paste templates or write short proposals with just a few lines. This approach gives us a better chance of being seen by clients compared to not being seen at all. All the RUclips expert suggest that beginners should target jobs with only 5-10 or 5-15 proposals. But to be honest, within 2-3 minutes, most postings have more than 15 proposals. In short, what I am trying to say is, how can I craft the kind of proposal you are suggesting within 2-3 minutes? You need to think from a freelancer’s perspective. Despite my efforts, none of my bids have been seen over the past month, and I haven't landed any work.
Bro to tell you that the 1st was extremely good and the rest 3 all was just GPT use. I wouldn't score the last 3 a 1 start.
hard but all worth it!
If you click on it, the same link will appear again and no option will appear plz tell me how to new process in verification
Me too
I found that you should go with mobile mode with your browser. Turn on or off dekstop mode
Exactly
Nico, I am extremely grateful to your channel for helping me build solid foundations for upwork. Keep creating the content, more power to you 🔥 P.S The major bottleneck for me is lack of funds to buy connects hoping repeat orders from clients would accelerate things.
Very inspiring!
Thanks!
One of the best videos for freelanceers ❤
Thanks!!
Amazing
Thanks!
but its only suited for top rated freelancers; what about beginners , how client attracted them ?
