Hey Makers!
Here's the quick video I've recorded to show you exactly how to do this. I wanted to quickly share a strategy that has been working really well for me in increasing my response rates on Upwork applications.
As many of you know, I've been following Nick’s daily schedule (Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, etc.) and submitting about 10 applications a day. However, I realized that clients are more likely to respond when we showcase real-world scenarios that are directly related to their job description.
Let me give you a quick example:
- Scenario: Let’s say you’re applying for a job to automate a process, like splitting a story into sentences and generating AI prompts for each one.
- Action: Take that specific requirement, go to Make.com, and use the AI to generate the scenario for you. Then, in your video, show how that scenario works.
Tip: You don’t need to walk through the exact interface; just explain the process clearly: Step 1, Step 2, Step 3 and focus on how your solution saves time, improves efficiency, etc.
Results:
By using this approach, I’ve already received four responses, and I might close a couple of them soon! Some prospects are still in the interview phase, but this method has definitely improved my odds.
I just wanted to share this with the community in case it helps you too! If you’ve been struggling to get responses, try incorporating this approach and let me know how it works for you.
Lastly, a big shout-out to Nick for building this awesome community! Let’s keep sharing our updates and supporting each other.
