I had a problem with a non paying client and had to threaten them with legal action to get paid. But I think they've blacklisted me. Is there a way to find out?

Well Done Brother, thank you for all wonderful efforts
I've been binge watching your videos they are so awesome. Wow
Thanks alot man
Hi Evan, thank you. I'll keep you in the loop once I have an Upwork question. :)
What a great video. Thanks!
Recently found your channel, loving your videos, entertaining and some cracking info 👍🙌
@Paul Topham that’s awesome, welcome aboard! Really glad to have you! Have you been on Upwork for long?
Hello thanks so much for offering so much value
There are only few people on the internet that offers genuine value and you are one of them.
My question is for someone who is a beginner in their freelance journey and haven’t really had past clients,how can I position my self to get clients?
@Sales &Tech It is my ABSOLUTE PLEASURE!!! YOU are the hero in this story!!!
About what you asked, regarding being a beginner... I am working on something very special, and a little bit secret right now regarding Upwork client Proposals, but I WILL HAVE SOMETHING BIG FOR YOU SOON. (seriously - I'm SO EXCITED I can hardly contain myself - it only came up over the weekend, it is MASSIVE and keeps snowballing into something even bigger... and I bet you're going to LOVE IT)
If you want to get notified, hit Subscribe + Bell Notifications set to All... you don't HAVE to subscribe but I would STRONGLY suggest it - because it's going to be freaking INCREDIBLE .
And I would be willing to bet that everyone who is paying attention at that moment that I announce what we're doing... they're going to make a LOT of money, very fast.
(All I can say for now is, this is something that if you're a freelancer who likes money, then you are NOT going to want to miss this - it will be WORTH IT!)
Sorry for being cryptic on this, but it's gonna be absolutely epic. LOOK FOR THE ANNOUNCEMENT on the Channel Page in the Community tab!! It might start with something like, "We are setting the world record..."
Hope you'll join us 🥰 because Cover Letters WILL be involved 😻😻😻😻😻🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
Just subscribed to your channel,love the way you explain things,well I base in Nigeria and I have been applying for jobs on Upwork since January and I haven’t even gotten a single reply yet.

Please create a special video on upwork job search and what type of job should I like or dislike.
Hi Evan, quick question here please, how do you plug marketing yourself on Upwork into your schedule, do you do it for a few continued hours or multiple times a day? Thank you for the great value you're putting out there!
Thank you. Your videos are great.
You're welcome @Onur, I really appreciate you!
Loved watching this video!! Inspired.
Here is my question- do you think the place you are from affects your likelihood of getting jobs? I ask this because most of the successful freelancers I've come across are Americans and I am from Africa.
Thanks Evan! The video is very useful. I am a new person to Upwork, I don't know how to start for putting the first dollars in the first job in my field niche, thanks (I don't know how to price correctly).
Hey Evan, first of all I'd like to say that you are the BEST RUclipsr that I've found across on RUclips for Upwork guidelines. I'm just new to Upwork. I've a couple of questions to ask. Hope to get a reply from you.
First of all, I wanted to ask that if someone has no clients from anywhere, how are they going to get the reviews?
Secondly, if I'm doing content writing. Then can I just upload samples of my work that I didn't do for any client since I've no clients right now. But that work is original and I've done it assuming that it was some client's job.
Will wait to get a reply from you!
Fantastic, really enjoyed this.
@RossOwnzHere Glad you enjoyed it!
I Have applied for Upwork for a couple of weeks Now,say 6 or so and I haven't gotten any job proposal yet... but I'm definitely going to try Out Your Methods!!
You can do it!
Hey dude amazing tips loved them , but I'm having one trouble my clients are not viewing my proposal, so could you help me with that and can you make another video on that , I would be eager to share and watch that , Love you 🥰👍
I applied a lot and found my first job now I dont have any connects left :)

really amazing and inspirational tutorial
Many many thanks! Did you find it helpful?
Thank you very much for this valued filled video.
How do I write a good proposal to land me my first gig
@Godwin Benjamin Great suggestion - I'm glad you are here! We will most likely be doing a SERIES of videos on writing good proposals. In the meantime, have you seen this video yet? ruclips.net/video/f4INGRluDAU/видео.html
Hi, I’m new to your channel! Love your content. I’ve been on Upwork about 3 months. I offer digital marketing services, but focus mainly on content creation. I’m pricing my services at lower than usual to get clients. I have gotten good results but need to double them. My question is, how can I get more yeses? I have a good cover letter, profile, and try to do 20 outreach per day. I have a decent portfolio too. What do you recommend. I’m currently working with 10 clients and wanting to go to 20
I totally agree that everyone should watch the golden rules video.
@Lori Flath thanks, you're a LEGEND!
Wow.. great content and extraordinary presentation
Thanks so much @Milton Haldar! You're a legend!
Hey Evan, in 1.5 month my results are 60 CL, 24 views , 2 interview, 0 contracts. I try to send 2-3 CL per day. I just don't give up and go to my goal. But now I work on offline job cause i need to eat and buy connects
Thanks for this video
@Zagbale Eric thank YOU! Are you active on Upwork?
Love the way you teach😂
Hi! Thank you for your videos it helps me a lot! I am a self-taught web developer and I want to start a a freelancer but I do not have previous experience or jobs. What advice could you give me? Thank you!
Hi Evan, there is no link in the description for setting up advanced searches as you mentioned in the video. Can you share, please? Appreciated
Ufffhhh, you are amazinnngg!!!!💖
Thanks for you 😇
You are just awesome!
You rock! Thanks @Farid!
If you do ever see this, please know that I appreciate your content and your channel would receive the acknowledgment it deserves soon. My question is how can I get a clients attention in my introduction, could you share some tips?
@Abiodun Akanbi Great to have you here, thanks for commenting. Here are some things I would try:
-Put yourself in the client's shoes. Beyond what they're asking for in the job description, what frustrations do they have? How are they struggling? What is most painful for them? Aggressively put yourself in that Upwork client's shoes, and write about what they're struggling with... and THEN show them how you have seen this situation before, and have helped others struggling with this same thing before. Then show the results that your clients have gotten through quotes from client reviews / testimonials.
-Someone with multiple skills wins over another with only one skill. You can try mentioning how they don't only need someone who does X, but also understands Y and Z that are crucial to success in this project.
-If you have really awesome work examples, talk about one of those examples. "Your job listing really jumped out at me, because it's so similar to another client I had recently..."
Is that helpful?
@@FreelanceMVP yes it is. Thank you very much for taking the time to reply. I’ll be sharing any successes I have
@Abiodun Akanbi awesome, love to see you share your success!! 🥰
Hi, I am Yash Khanna, and I loved your video on how you summarized the tips in short. I am a researcher Engineer in co-corporate. I have a query that how to effectively find research projects in Upwork and specifically with different Universities? I would love to have your suggestions.
Thanks
Yash Khanna
Hi, I love your videos. My question is, in what eye-catching way can I start my cover letter, and also when you said to give work examples on your proposal, did you mean to attach examples of work you've done before or just mention some examples of work you've done on the cover letter? Thanks
Thanks so much @Esther! New cover letter video coming THIS WEEK 😻😻😻😻😻 I think you might like it and it'll answer your question!
@FreelanceMVP I have a question how much long should a upwork cov3r letter be
Great!thanks
Hey Evan, I'm looking forward to starting working on UpWork and your videos were really helpful, but I got a question. How can I create a portfolio that hits even if I don't have any previous working experience??
The question everyone is asking but these youtubers can't answer. Even in the entry level freelances these expert guys come in and snatch it. How the are the freshers to survive ?
Upload your practice works or local clients works to it
one thing you can do, take a freelance work outside upwork and if you are able to build up a good relationship with the client you can ask him to pay you thru upwork. I understand that upwork will take some charges but it will be worth it. since you be getting good reviews and it will build up your portfolio as well. Main thing is it is under the rules and regulations of upwork. So technically, everyone will be benefited. Hope it makes sense.
Hi, @Freelance MVP Thanks for the video
I have not completed my schooling yet, i have no Employment history. so what do i do
Love you man
Can you make a video where you explain your 3 by 3 method in more detail?
Hi Evan, I'm new to your channel! Thank you very much for this! Do you think language translation has a good chance to earn on Upwork or should I change to another niche?
My results for 1.5 months are 60 CL 24 views 2 interview 0 contacts. I don't give up and I send 2-3 CL everyday, but now I work on offline job and send CL I think that I should do more
Hello Evan,
I love this video. I will like to ask, for jobs that require people in a certain location to handle, should I still apply for it, if I am not in that location?
Thank you for such a great video. I greatly admire your style of presentation and will be glad you be my mentor as I build a substantial career on Upwork.
My question is regarding rates; I have an intermediate level of expereince in data entry and I have set $5 as my rate, because I consider I'm new in the platform. Do you think it is too low or just ok to make me get my first clent? And with that rate can I bid for jobs with fixed price of $1000 for example?
Hello, really enjoyed the video. I Want to know how to use my connects efficiently and what happen of I dont have any connect thanks
to use your connects wisely, honestly I’d suggest checking out all the content on this channel and following the steps. Some other channels are pretty good too, but overall spend a little time learning and it will REALLY pay off. If you don’t have connects, you get more I believe once a month for Free, or with Freelance plus you get 80/month, or you can buy more connects. But using them wisely, very important!!
First of all, I need to know how can I make my profile even better and more attractive that can be noticed by the client when It comes to applying for the job. Since I can see that my profile is not 100% complete so can you pls make a video of how we can complete our profile or making a portfolio etc?
Good day, great content. What is a good starting hourly rate for Data entry
Hello, Even. You are a GOD!!!
My question is, when I apply for a job, for exemple a logo design job, and I have to attach projects. What kind of projects should I send when I apply for the job ? some examples, maybe sketches of what kind of logos the client wants or previous works done by me ?
The most relevant ones to what it is that the client wants - PAST work that you've done, not sketches for this client. Any work for this client, you should be paid for
Very helpfull
You are awesome. My upwork question is How to get lead from upwork job where more than 50 proposals already done
@Salgotras Thank you so much! To answer your question, I really wouldn't be applying to jobs with more than 50 proposals - really what you need to do, is check Upwork more frequently so you're one of the first 10 at LEAST, to apply to jobs. After that point, it gets more competitive / less likely the client will hire.
Hello Evan,
You helped me in getting approved and now I have a rising talent badge on upwork.
I am an architecture student and I can provide architecture services . I also provide graphic design services and my question is even though I have a great profile and I have lowered my rates , I also used your format for sending proposals ,but I still never get job invites and my proposals are never responded to.
Is there something I might be doing wrong and how can I be better?
thanks man,
Thanks Freelance MVP !
Thanks @Blue Arts you're awesome!!
I'm watching this to gain insight but for anyone beginning their journey. It took me 3 months to get my first job. No I'm not trying to discourage you. I'm saying it will take a while and you may want to give up, but it's better to keep putting in proposals than to not do anything at all. At least if you do you have a good percentage of getting at interview.
@Breaker Heart TRUTH!
what is a good cover letter when sending a proposal? Thank you
Thank you so much for the opportunity to ask questions 😩
Hey Evan I'm kind of stuck
I'm a new social media manager that can take only contract jobs for now because I'm also a student.
My confusion is I know upwork has 2 payment methods but my services are social media management, content creation strategy, Organic growth strategy
I don't know how I would break it down?
Please can you help me
Thank you so much, I would really appreciate your reply
This video was 😍😍
I've been applying strategies continuously but haven't gotten messaged.
What can I do?
Hi Evan, I'm looking forward to starting working on UpWork again and your videos are really promising, but I got a question. How can I create a portfolio that attracts attention even if I don't have any previous working experience with Upwork???
Can u explain about the proposal on the client's profile as in
50+ , 20-30, less than 5....etc.
Hi dear. Kindly advice me on how best to land jobs via Upwork in the field of architecture and landscape designs
I have a question and hope its not too late... What if you just started Upwork and was offered a job invitation slightly out your niche and accepted it just to boost your profile, but then realised how time consuming, boring and bad the actual rate for that job is. How bad of an idea is it to cancel that job after already starting?
Your content are so hilarious 😅😁
I got my first job. Delivered it, client seems happy.But not getting the second one on Upwork after 50-60 proposals.
Should we apply for the saved jobs immediately after saving them or should we first complete the 3 downwards three times a day and then at the end of day apply to ALL saved jobs?
Hi Evan, I lv to listen to u, You are my daily motivation dosage. Evan I have a question, You said, always send customize proposals according to a posted job but the problem is whenever I tried to write a good customized proposal the proposal list goes to 50+. Now does the client go all way down to the 50th or 60th proposal? Do this worth to write a good customized proposal when you know the client will not even going to see it.
Hey CHAAAAAD 🤣
Loved your video, thanks!
Question: You made so many mistakes that Upwork blocked you: "We don't think you will succeed around here" or a similar statement.
What do you do? You didn't have a kind Evan to coach you prior to 2015.
Keep on that beautiful journey to provide your family great quality time. 👋
Good video.
Thank you. But just, how di you apply to so much work when we are limited by connects. Do you need to buy a lot of connects?
I'm a student with no experience on transcription ...please give me a step by step tutorial of how to start freelancing on Upwork
Hi Evan,I need help regards to portfolio,how to build a portfolio and also how to write a snatching cover letter.
I'm running low on connects. Now what? Can you do a video on what to do when that happens? (Without having to buy more connects).
Two basic things: wait until you get more connects next month, and use them very wisely (this the cover letter & profile tips videos!!) or pay for Freelance Plus subscription which is very much worth it !
The quality of the videos on this channel is improving exponentially! Craaaaazy funny with 5 A :D Would love see more of Chaaaaad in the future videos hahaha
Learned so much! I don't know how to thank you anymore lol! Can't wait to see more of your videos!
My number 1 qustion about upwork is still how write a killer proposal.
PS. It was so fun to see you responding to my comment in the video.
@Rayhanur you see? I told you I would respond to every single comment! Have a couple of videos coming up about a topic you specifically mentioned in another previous comment. Can you guess what it is? 😉
Thanks so much for your great feedback, I'm so glad for you and everyone else that enjoy the videos, and actively engage in the comments section, hit the like button and help the channel grow. It has already SERIOUSLY EXCEEDED my expectations!! It takes a lot of time to develop the videos but I'm SO happy to see comments like this from everyone in our little freelance group of people who want to just keep doing more, keep doing better, and improve our lives!
Will tell you a secret: I really can't wait to get to 500 subscribers so that we can use the RUclips Community function... we have some seriously awesome plans for this🚀🚀🚀🚀
P.S. - Congratulations, you're the first person featured on the channel!
@Rayhanur kabir - also, here's one that has played well for me in the past. Super-simple, but effective when you're pretty experienced in a certain industry. Say, for example, the post is about a software business blog post role, and the company provides auto-generated cat photos (come on, it's an example! 🤣), and it is VERY similar to one you've worked for in the past. Then try this structure out (example):
"Hey [NAME], would you be interested to know that you just so happened to stumble upon a person who built over 100 blog posts for another client, who just so happened to be in the auto-generated cat photos space?"
Nothing else. No attachment. Send proposal.
Clients value extremely specific industry experience immensely. Work that into your proposals and no matter your niche, you'll do well if you show that you know & understand the CLIENT'S niche.
@@FreelanceMVP Man oh man! What a fantastic proposal! I can't wait to see you have not 500 but 500K subscribers! The amount of value you provide in a every video is insane! I actually emailed upwork support so they bring in you one of their webner. So many newcomers will benefit from this.
@Rayhanur kabir Thank you so much! I really appreciate you doing that!! It's going to be amazing when we're 1,000,000 strong 🦾 first step: let's get to 500! We can all do it together! 🙌
nice content 👍
I’m having some problems with up work I’ve been on the platform for several months and nothing, I have followed some of your videos and others but I can’t even get an interview for a job
I found you through today’s Upwork event. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I’d like to know what to do if a client is unhappy. Also, what can we do about clients who scam us out of money or leave negative reviews?
My question(s): What are revisions? and as a beginner how much revision should I set in my project catalog?
Revisions are when you send a draft to your Upwork client, they provide you comments and you do a version 2 / 3 /4 etc.
I've been following your content fo about a week now it's realy helping me upgrade my profile
My question is what do you do when have no work experience on upwork

Pls give me any suggestion about my Query and i will try improve those things in my profile..
Hello, I really enjoy your content, already it is helping me. Iv'e landed 2 jobs on upwork (low pay of course) within my first 2 weeks. I have put myself in the food and hospitality niche as a freelance writer. Am I limiting myself from getting other writing gigs? my brother helped me to get into writing as I am a former chef, so far I have written other niches such as casino reviews, amazon and more. however, I feel that clients will only approach me for cooking topics, and of course I wish to only write about food but I am open to other topics to get more pay. When I apply for proposals should I state that I can do other niches too if i apply for something nothing to do with cooking? I think sometimes it is an advantage that I can write about food without having to always do too much research as this saves me time. Thank you
awesome job Nell! 2 jobs in 2 weeks, that’s awesome. Be sure to nail the 5-star rating on them, no matter how small - that’s how you’ll build up your rate. If you want to write, seek what you’re interested in first… the thing you WANT to learn more about. What you find yourself reading when you scroll through Google news. Then, learn how to write sales copy, in that niche… you’ll experience a step-change in what you can charge as you grow your skill set.
What do you think about bids? For some jobs, people bit 120 connections. Should we use them or submit them with the
One of your rules is that speed is crucial. Can you give me an idea of what you mean- I still have to research the client's first name and then maybe do a google search on the client's company. I will boldly go but just need a little clarification. Thank you!
Speed of “sending proposals to jobs that were recently posted” ie the likelihood you (or ANYONE, for that matter) will be hired on a job more than a week old, is exponentially lower than that of a job that was posted within the last couple of hours.
How to best write proposals and answer questions for job posts?
I get demotivated very easily. As soon as I open upwork, my mind begins to race and have bad thoughts. I start thinking things like, I am not good enough, there are so many people who can do the job better than me, I think I will never be able to earn money.
Hello Evan, thanks a lot for all you do.
I am relatively new on Upwork and yet to get my first job. Please how do you advise that I proceed?
Also, I clicked the link you provided here to implement what you taught but I can't find the advanced search technique.

Is it worth it to bid on jobs. If it is when should I bid? How much should I Bid? What if they're already interviewing someone.
Hello Evan, first of all, thank you for such an amazing content, I have been working as a freelancer for 3 years now but I'm new to upwork, currently speaking I have my 100% jss with about 4 five star reviews on my profile ( I got the reviews from some of my past clients from other freelance platforms)
Regardless of this, I have been actually struggling to land my first job on the platform (I submit 2 to 3 proposals per day), I get invites occasionally but most of the invites are not a good fit. I have a lot of portfolio samples but I still don't get results from clients, any recommendations and would it be possible to review my cover letter and portfolio for me?
