Making a winning bid secret
Bidding on freelance site is writing proposal to the project owner as the rate of your chance and
data of finishing the job some jobs may be continues/permanent. (Note) never write your bid
details through the "make bid" link given by the freelance site because other freelancers will use
your bid details to know how to approach the bid and knock you out.
You can simply write please view pin through the make bid link. Then you send your bid details
through pin.
Secret that the Guru’s in freelancing won’t tell you to do when bidding
no of bids: If you are just starting your freelance career, don’t bid for a project that has more
than 2 bids, because the project owner may have started communicating with the bidders
It is always advisable to bid for "Today’s project / Recent project" as the owner may still be
online, once you bid and pm lin, he will reply you and start the job at once (The secret of how I
won two bids in 2days)
state what you will do in appreciating forwarding you the project
don’t stop at one message you send to the project owner when bidding, send two to three
message about your willingness to work for him
State that you re willing to work extra hard, if you are awarded the project
Set your bidding price. For example I personally use 55% of the price range as a starter, but
when you have been rated well you can raise it to 65-75% of the price range.
Do not price too how, as some project owners will think you don’t have quality service
In freelancing, be fast because every seconds count
Send your portfolio that contains the best work as a prove that you can do the job and you have
enough experience.
Have an attractive username like letting lance and your username e.g if your name is Thompson,
you can use tomlance as your username (This is a secret you will not get somewhere else I get
this by experience)
Have a special email like Tomlance @yahoo.com
State the reason for the project owner toward you the project.
