Proposals are not getting viewed. Need Help!
It looks like I am just wasting my time and money. My proposals are not even getting viewed on Upwork. I am using Claude for writing proposals. Today I just posted my profiles on reddit and everyone was saying one thing Ai Generated __ Ai generated. I really need help, I don't have enough money to use. For now, I am stopping bidding on the jobs until I feel that clients will view my proposal. I start with: Hey there, I recorded a quick Loom video for you: https://loom.com/ -------- ---------------- ----- Let's connect. Best, Shahzaib. Q: How to start my proposal's first 2 lines so they get viewed at least.

@Kayla Brick extra without payment. And I didn't ask him for any milestone because he is my first client and I want 5 star review, even i need to pay for that.
Does my profile looks good on Upwork ?
Hey my name is Shahzaib, I am full-stack web developer. I joined this community yesterday, And I am pretty excited to start the Upwork. I have 500 bucks that i saved in 6 months to start the Upwork, I know you might me saying seriously 6 months, but yeah it is true. And don't laugh if I make grammar mistakes in this post. Here is my Upwork Profile: https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~01f111c45d418698af I will be very glad if you click on the link and see my profile, how it looks, how it speaks to client. My Profile is not completed yet. I have 2 more projects to list into my portfolio. I need 1 testimonial to start my journey on the Upwork, once i get one more testimonial I will start bidding on jobs.

@Kayla Brick Thanks so much for making that video! I watched the whole thing and honestly it was super helpful. So about the description, you mentioned removing the emojis. I actually looked at other successful profiles in my niche and got some different opinions - seems like having 3-4 emojis is pretty common and works well. So I decided to keep a few. I did remove the clear communication skill tag though, that made sense. I was also wondering if you could give me feedback on my profile picture? And if you get a chance, check out my portfolio projects. I added 2 special sections in each one - a testimonial video section and one for certification proof. Also, I noticed that testimonials from mentors or community leaders really help beginners stand out on Upwork. Since I've been part of your mentorship and applied everything you taught, would you consider recording a brief testimonial about my work ethic or learning progress? I completely understand if you're too busy, but it would genuinely make a huge difference for my profile credibility. And hey, if there's anything I can help you with - whether it's a website project or any dev work - I'd be more than happy to contribute for free. Just let me know! Thanks again for everything!
