Ukraine | T Programmer Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 4 Section 2: Your ProIe: Shine Iike a diamond When you stand out from other freelancers, you improve your chances of getting hired. That's why making a great frst impression is important. Come to think of it, it's critical. Here are some tips on creating an eye-catching Profle: 1. Write your Overview with the "ideaI" cIient in mind. You can't be all things to all people. Throwing too wide of a net in your Overview section will land you nothing. Write your Overview to be read by one person and one person alone: Your ideal client. What would he or she want to know? Explain how your SKLLS allow you to SOLVE PROBLEMS (as much as we hate using all caps, this is one time they're called for). Also, write in a friendly yet professional tone. Be warm and you'll instantly stand out. And no tpyos (oops). Good: Stand out with great design! With over 12 years of producing corporate marketing projects for some of the most innovative companies in world, 'm here to bring your ideas and vision to life.

Bad: Minimum hourly rate $15. A 10 year old software development company. Daniel B. United States | Videographer/Animator Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 5 2. IncIude an engaging and professionaI photo. Clients are people too. They love putting a face to a name, and a friendly photo of you smiling is sure to get them leaning your way. Research shows that freeIancers with an image are twice as IikeIy to get the job. Yes, twice as IikeIy. Good: Bad: Section 2: (continued) Your ProIe: Shine Iike a diamond 3. Take muItipIe SkiIIs Tests. Show clients you know your stuff. Most professionals will fnd relevant Skills Tests on Elance, assessing your profciency. Test completion helps separate you from others. In fact, 76% of cIients say they prefer hiring tested freeIancers. Tests are free on Elance, and if you suffer from the test jitters (as we all sometimes do), don't worry. You can always re-take the test later. Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 6 4. Use your PortfoIio to showcase taIents. Don't be shy, show-off. Real-world samples bring your skills to life. Again, fll your Portfolio with work your ideal client would want to see. Be specifc in your descriptions, explaining your role in the project and what was accomplished. Also name your sample carefully, as potential clients can use our search bar to fnd Portfolio pieces of interest (such as, "ecommerce mobile app). Section 2: (continued) Your ProIe: Shine Iike a diamond 5. Join EIance Groups. Your membership in pre-screened professional Groups goes a long way to reassure a client that you're top-notch. You'll fnd Elance Groups in many categories, from technical felds to creative categories. Potential clients often exclusively invite Group members to a job. Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 7 6. MisceIIaneous tips, advice and other truths. Here are other juicy tidbits that we hear often from clients: n your Service Description section, explain how you solve problems. Be solutions oriented and give clients a good idea of how you think and approach jobs. Pay close attention to the Keywords you enter on your Profle. Again, try not to be all things to all people. Narrow the list of words that showcase your talent to those that will attract a very specifc client. Clients want to know for sure who they've hired. Complete the Identity Verication and verify your CredentiaIs. Trust is key to any working relationship. Your PortfoIio will be pubIic. Don't include sensitive fles you wouldn't want shared. And make sure you have approval to use those fles. No borrowing/piIfering. t's OK to check-out other Profles for inspiration, but don't plagiarize. Ditto for Portfolio samples. With your talent and the strategies addressed in this guide, it's only a matter of time until the awesome jobs start rolling in. Make sure your ProIe is 100% compIete. Clients constantly search for freelancers (read: you), and the information found in your Profle is what steers them in your direction. On the right side of your My Elance page, you'll see a tracker that marks Your Profle Completeness. Aim for 100% to give yourself the best chance of attracting clients. Section 2: (continued) Your ProIe: Shine Iike a diamond Next: Your Job Search Yoko M. Japan | Graphic Designer Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 8 The future looks bright!

Simply put the company on your Watch List and you'll know when they post jobs. You'll be among the frst to catch their eye! Section 3: (continued) Your Job Search: Finding great work fast 3. Use the EIance search bar to nd jobs. To use the Search bar on Elance (be sure you toggle to "jobs), simply type in the project you're looking for or the skills you have and we'll give you a list of great job opportunities. Browse the selection for projects you're perfectly suited for. Keep checking back too, as new jobs are posted all the time. Keep in mind you can also Narrow ResuIts when searching.

With your eye-catching Profle and strong skillset, you're sure to get personally invited to jobs as well. Especially if you join Elance Groups and follow the other suggestions from the previous section, Your Profle. Be sure to respond quickly to invites, letting them know if you're interested (or not). Section 3: (continued) Your Job Search: Finding great work fast 5. MisceIIaneous tips, advice and other truths. Things to consider when you're fnding jobs on Elance: Use muItipIe forms of communication when conferring with potential clients. Your project Workroom has its own private message board, allowing for email communication. However, sometimes it makes sense to pick up the phone or Skype. Just be sure to wait until the client responds to your proposal not doing so and providing your contact information up front violates Elance policy. And be sure you and your client always document any decisions in the project's Workroom. When searching for jobs, keep in mind whether you prefer HourIy jobs or Fixed Price jobs. Each has its advantages, so decide what works best for you. HourIy jobs are based on a simple principle: An hour paid for an hour worked. The option is particularly popular when the project has a good chance of fexibility, such as the scope may change mid-stream. Freelancers often choose Hourly work because of features like Work View and Tracker where your time is automatically tracked and screenshots submitted to your clients. When work is approved, timesheets are automatically paid. Fixed Priced jobs are generally posted when the client has a good grasp of what the project entails, and there aren't a lot of details left to the imagination. One beneft is the Elance Escrow feature, where the client funds your job before work begins. When certain pre-determined milestones are met and the client approves the work, payments are automatically released to you. Next: Your ProposaI Dennis H. Germany | Web Developer Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 11 Well done. Now that your Profle is a power-packed magnet pointed squarely at great businesses (if not, see The Profle section), your next step is pinpointing which businesses are truly great (read: great for you). And then crafting a proposal they can't refuse. Here is some sage advice: Section 4: Your ProposaI: The perfect pitch 1. Stay in your happy zone, seIecting jobs carefuIIy. Just as your Profle Overview can't position you as all things to all people, nor should your job selection process span widely across your feld. t's best to focus, focus, focus on jobs best suited for you. Things to consider: Find jobs that match your skiII and interests. Life is too short to work on projects that neither interest you nor put your best talent to work. Find jobs with a hearty description. f the client's job description is vague and feeble, chances are the job will be equally woeful. Keep searching for better opportunities. Find jobs with the right budget. One good job you can sink your teeth into is better than four small ones that take time and energy ramping up for. However, if you're brand new to Elance or your category you may need to start small and grow your way to success. Find jobs that t your avaiIabiIity. When you're booked solid and going on a 2-week trip to the islands, pass on monster projects. There will be more big projects when your stress level is back to normal. vy F. China | Translator Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 12 2. Screen cIients as carefuIIy as they'II screen you. With so many opportunities on Elance, be selective in the businesses you choose to work with. f it's not the right match, you'll just spin your wheels and waste precious energy better used for other clients. A few thoughts: Find businesses who truIy want you. Browse the job posting to make sure you're what they're looking for. Check for the Experience and Skills they desire, as well as any Geographic Preferences. Don't ft? Move on. Find businesses with Veried Payment. Although it's not essential, it makes sense to frst seek clients who have a payment process in place. Look for the Verifed Payment symbol in their job post a dollar sign among the green icons. Section 4: (continued) Your ProposaI: The perfect pitch Find businesses with an estabIished Job History. Although great new businesses come to Elance daily, there is peace-of-mind in fnding clients with a solid track record. Find businesses with a high Award Ratio. The Award Ratio is a fair indicator of how serious the company is in hiring you. Your time is valuable, so use it wisely. Find businesses giving reguIar Feedback. Your status (see Your Reputation section) is based greatly on the Feedback clients leave. Look for partners who are quick to spread the word about your skills. Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 13 3. Now write a kiIIer ProposaI. After vetting clients and fnding a job that looks sensational, it's time to pounce. Act quickly and set those wheels of getting hired in motion. Naturally a great Proposal is paramount to getting noticed and sealing the deal. There's a lot to cover, so let's jump right in: Customize (yes, customize) your ProposaI. Clients can spot "cut-and- paste Proposals from a mile away (1.6 kilometers), giving you the axe instantly. Cookie-cutter responses stand out like a sore thumb and earn you a quick thumbs down. Ask questions too. As well as showing interest, it's good to begin a two-way dialog between you and the client. Write in a suitabIe tone. Much like your Profle Overview, your Proposal should be personable yet professional. Save your 16-letter words for Scrabble, instead explaining yourself in a warm and friendly manner. Make a friend and you'll get the job. Be succinct. Be a good editor. Brevity is vital, as clients may be browsing several proposals in a short amount of time. And please, no typos. Spellchecker is your friend. Show you're a good Iistener. Be sure to demonstrate that you've read the job posting. Ask good questions, and show interest and enthusiasm. HighIight the vaIue you bring. Don't rely only on your Profle. Be specifc about benefts you bring to this particular job. Spotlight relevant experiences you've had, how you tackled similar jobs and what unique approaches and skills you bring to the table. Section 4: (continued) Your ProposaI: The perfect pitch Ask for the job. Think of your Proposal as an interview. What would you say to make sure you get called back? Show your enthusiasm and let the person know you want to start the project soon. Oh, thank them for their time too. Showcase reIevant sampIes. Your Elance Portfolio should be full of awe- inspiring pieces demonstrating your talents, but why not pull some of the more relevant examples and include them directly in your proposal? This gives clients your best, most relevant work without having to search for it. Firmo S. ndonesia | Translator Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 14 4. Set a fair price. Clients are inevitably going to get low-priced Proposals from the desperate and uninspired, as well as outrageously high-priced Proposals from others. Don't worry about them. f you've proven your worth (see above) you'll get your fair price. Now, what exactly is a fair price? Here's a starting point to determine that: Factor in your time and effort. Carefully guesstimate all that's involved. Make sure to take into account the project's complexity, time-frame (any 16- hour days needed?) and total effort required. Research your market. Do your due diligence, deciding who you're competing against. Get an idea for industry pay averages, starting with Elance's very own Trends pages where we show you all the top skills being hired on Elance, along with average pay rates. Factor in if you're offering a premium skill that's diffcult to fnd. See things from your cIient's perspective. Are you just breaking into the market, or new to Elance and yet to build-up your standing (see Your Reputation section)? Or just the opposite, are you a proven expert with great feedback and ratings? t matters. And realistically, so does your potential client's past budgets. Look to see what they've spent for similar projects. Decide what you're worth. Estimate in all honesty what is a fair price for the job at hand. Don't sell yourself short, reacting to low-ball pricing. f the client wants quality work in a timely manner, they'll pay you what you deserve. Section 4: (continued) Your ProposaI: The perfect pitch 5. Consider submitting a ProposaI with no price. f you're not sure of the requirements, don't make a wild guess. t can come back to haunt you. nstead, on your Proposal check the "Will submit amount later box. n your Proposal be sure to ask specifc questions to get further clarifcation, and reassure the client that you'll fnalize a price based on that information. Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 15 6. Don't just sit there, foIIow-up. Once your Proposal is submitted, keep your eye on the ball. Check your My Jobs page or Watch List daily for status updates on your potential project. The client may be asking for additional information. f you change your mind or earn another job and can't ft this project into your schedule, be polite and withdraw your bid. You may well come across this client again, and they'll remember your courteousness. 7. Don't just sit there, send more ProposaIs. Although you want to be selective in the jobs you set your sights on, you also want to make sure you cover all of your bases. Your frst Proposal is just the beginning. Once that Proposal is submitted, start the process over and fnd another job that's perfect. And another. And another. As you build your online work reputation at Elance you'll want to give yourself lots of opportunities. Section 4: (continued) Your ProposaI: The perfect pitch 8. Negotiating your price. Often a potential client will like what they see, but not see eye-to-eye on pricing. This may be a straight-up cost issue, or the scope of the project may have changed. Either way, keep these thoughts in mind: AIways remain professionaI. No need to take things personally. You're a professional and you know what you're worth. Simply explain why you feel you're asking a fair price. Be wiIIing to withdraw your offer. f there is absolutely no wiggle room, walk away and thank the client for their time. Simply withdraw your offer and move on. If the price changes, update terms and miIestones. When fuctuations happen, update all related items in the project. Be especially sensitive to shifting end dates and scope. Do not work without job funding. While the early bird gets the worm, in some instances he/she gets burned. Don't be the one who gives away free work. Wait until funding is secured before you log hours. Next: Your Workroom Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 16 Congratulations! Your Proposal was accepted and you're now ready to create some magic. With every project you'll automatically be assigned a secure Elance Workroom where you and your client can collaborate. This is also where you'll track progress and ensure you get paid (yeah!). While there are many services and features, here are some highlights of your shared Workroom: Communicate and coIIaborate. You'll fnd tools for staying in touch (from email to video conferencing), as well as solutions for sharing fles and tracking work. Section 5: Your Workroom: Where jobs get tackIed Manage projects. Use your Workroom to keep projects moving smoothly. You can set and update terms, share status reports and have your timesheets submitted automatically if you're working on an hourly job. Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 17 Get paid quickIy. All the tools for getting paid are included in your Workroom. When objectives are successfully met, your money will be released and sent to you.

Elance has streamlined the process of getting work done, including taking many of the bureaucratic steps out of the process. Things happen automatically, intuitively and greenly. Mother Nature will thank you. Next: Your Reputation Esteban T. Argentina | iOS Developer Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 18 With all things being equal, clients will obviously accept the Proposal with the best balance of quality and value. But as we know, not all freelancers are equal in talent nor affordability. That's where your online reputation comes into play. Elance gives you several opportunities to distance yourself from others who may be interested in the same job. Here's some information on how to put yourself in the best light: Section 6: Your Reputation: Stand out from the rest 1. Feedback is important. No, criticaI. For each job you work, a client can (and should) leave Feedback ratings to share how great it was working with you. Just as clients can leave comments on why they enjoyed working with you, you can also respond with your own Feedback to their comments. t goes without saying that any comments you leave should be professionally worded.as other clients will be able to see them. Sometimes we see freelancers reacting poorly to Feedback received. Don't get caught up in the negativity. f you disagree with the Feedback left, be sure to remain professional and allow your response to explain the situation. f you feel that a client is pressuring you to change the scope of the work by withholding positive Feedback (example: asking for extra work you didn't agree to), give us a call. Coercion is a violation of Elance Policy and you deserve better. And remember, Feedback cannot be changed once it's posted. This is important to remember when asking for Feedback, and when Ieaving Feedback for your cIients. Sarah R. Puerto Rico | Writer Elance: A Freelancer's Guide | 19 2. Making sense of My Stats and LeveI. To help differentiate yourself beyond a Profle and price, Elance has several features for determining your online reputation.

We automatically prompt your clients to provide Feedback once a job is complete, but we can't force them to do so. f a few days go by and there's been no Feedback entered, be sure to gently nudge them as a reminder. t may even take a second nudge or more. Be persistent, but not rude. Remember, before accepting a job you can check a potential client's tendency for giving Feedback. Keep that in mind when sending Proposals. Respond professionaIIy to Feedback. Whether it's good or bad, remember that it's someone's estimation and respect their opinion. Plus, Feedback can't be changed once it has been posted. Also, your response will be displayed on your Profle. Do you really want potential clients to see a nasty remark you've made to a client? Use the EIance pIatform.
