Tips for new freelancers

Try to implement these best practices to increase your chances of improving your freelancing business on the website.

Make a good impression. Present yourself professionally, and tailor your proposal to what the project requires. State what you will provide, and how long it will take you to deliver.

Propose Milestones. Work out Milestone Payments in parts, especially if the project involved will require a lot of work. Use Proposed Milestones to request for the scheduling of payments for every chunk of work done.

Background check. Employers consider several factors when deciding who to work with, so it is only fair for you to do the same to them.
