I’m happy to share what worked for me. Let’s grow together. 💪

How to avoid scam job posts on “Upwork” so you save connects, energy and start winning better Projects I know you are tired of these fake job posts on Upwork. Today, I am giving it to you for free. All I need is your 3 minutes that saves you from scams: Let’s get started The scammers: Post 3-4 jobs but not hired yet. Same job postings from different accounts Vague job descriptions with not enough details Check the client's hiring history: Do they actually hire? Do they leave reviews? What’s their average spend? Skip non-serious clients by verifying: Less than $2-3/hour jobs Payment verification status Most of the time I applied for US jobs only Client location (does it match your target markets?) Focus on relevance so you won’t waste connects: Only apply to jobs that perfectly match your skills Don't waste connects on projects requiring expertise you don't have Be honest about your capabilities The manual qualification process Check the client history before applying Check their average hourly rate paid What reviews & feedback they are getting from freelancers Avoid “BIG test tasks” without contracts Never do full samples or pre-hire work unless you're protected with a contract. "Simple task for $500" or "No experience needed, just message me". Man! that’s a red flag. Never respond to jobs asking for contact outside Upwork Mentions of WhatsApp, Telegram, or email = 99% scam. -> Remember, my friend! Upwork does refund Connects for some declined proposals, but not every time. So, be selective with your job proposals. This the smartest way to protect your Connects and increase your chances. Good Luck!

Me… Me… Me… I… I… I… I… I… I… Me… Me… Me… You’ve seen those pitches. “I do this.” “I’ve built that.” “My experience is…” It’s all me, me, me. I, I, I. That kind of self-centered mindset doesn’t work, not when you’re trying to earn someone’s attention, trust, or business. Here’s the hard truth: you’re not special. Well, maybe to your mother. But beyond that? Nobody really cares about your story, your passion, or your skills just for the sake of it. People care about themselves. - Their problems. - Their goals. - Their deadlines. If you want them to listen, stop talking about yourself. Talk about what they need. Show how you help them. Make them feel heard, not pitched to. That’s how real connection happens.

Upwork's new feature - instant interviews using AI. A robot will score your interview and now clients can skip the proposals. Your interview will have a rating for the client to see. Thoughts on robots vs humans?

New to Upwork? Pro tip 🔥🔥 Don't put your lowest rate on your Upwork profile. Start with something that reflects the average, and then put your discounted rate on the proposal only. Clients will feel like you are a better deal based on the "reduced" rate you offered.
