5๏ธโƒฃThings Every New Freelancer Must Do Before Applying on Upwork ๐Ÿšฉ

Most beginners create an account and start sending proposals right away. Then they wonder why nobody replies. The truth is that clients check your profile before they read your proposal. Get these five things ready first:

1๏ธโƒฃ. A complete, professional profile
Upwork shows complete profiles more often, and clients trust them more. That means:
- A clear, friendly photo (face visible, good lighting, no selfies)
- A specific title like โ€œFlutter Developer | Mobile Apps for Startups,โ€ not just โ€œDeveloperโ€
- An overview that opens with how you help clients, not your life story
- Skills, education, and languages filled in


Aim for 100% profile completion before your first proposal.

Buying Connects without a Visa or Mastercard ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡น

If you want to buy Connects, pay for Upwork Plus, or subscribe to tools but donโ€™t have an international card, use the Bybit virtual card. Last time I checked, it worked on Upwork. ๐Ÿ“ฑ

How it works:
1. Download the Bybit app and sign up.
2. Verify your identity (passport or national ID plus a selfie).
3. Deposit USDT through P2P, from a friend, or from another wallet. $15โ€“20 is enough to start. ๐Ÿ’ฐ
4. Go to the Card section and apply for the virtual card.
5. Keep your USDT in the account the card spends from (usually Funding).
6. On Upwork, go to Settings โ†’ Membership & Connects โ†’ Billing, add the card, and buy your Connects. ๐Ÿ›’

Tips:
โ€ข before depositing many usdt make it works as of now
โ€ข there is no p2pa s of now in ethiopia so find a loyal seller
โ€ข Keep a little extra balance for temporary payment holds.
โ€ข Use trusted P2P sellers only.

Another option: Grey (grey.co) ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡น

If you donโ€™t want to go the crypto route, Grey is the most stable alternative i dominantly use it. It works in Ethiopia and gives you a USD virtual card for Upwork and most other platforms. ๐Ÿ’ณ

How it works:
Go to grey.co and create an account.
Fund your balance.
Create a virtual card. Itโ€™s a one-time payment of $5 per card.


Why itโ€™s a good choice:
The card works on most platforms, not just Upwork: subscriptions, tools, domains, and more.
It supports multiple currencies, including USD, EUR, and crypto(USDT,USDC).
You can withdraw to Ethiopian banks, Telebirr, and M-Pesa (Safaricom).
You get foreign account details for receiving payments from clients. ๐Ÿ’ฐ

3๏ธโƒฃ Build a portfolio, even without clients ๐Ÿ’ผโœจ
No past work? Thatโ€™s normal when youโ€™re starting. Clients donโ€™t care whether a project was paid. They care whether you can do the job. So create the proof yourself.

๐Ÿ›  What to build
Build 2โ€“4 high-level sample projects that match the exact work you want to be hired for.
If youโ€™re a developer, build real apps, not simple practice projects
If youโ€™re a designer, redesign an existing app or website and show the before and after.
If youโ€™re a writer or video editor, create sample articles, scripts, or edits in your niche. even create social media account and post some.
Pick problems real businesses have. A โ€œdelivery appโ€ or โ€œbooking systemโ€ is better than a โ€œto-do app.โ€

๐ŸŽฏ Quality over quantity
Three strong, polished projects beat ten half-finished ones. A broken demo link or messy screenshot can cost you the job, so test everything before you upload.

๐Ÿ”„ Keep it updated
As you finish real client work, replace your sample projects with actual results. Your portfolio should grow with you.
