Should You Boost Your Proposals??
“Should I be boosting my proposals?” Yes. You absolutely should. "Why?" When you submit a proposal on Upwork, the client only gets to see a small preview of it. And all the proposals are stacked on top of each other. You can see what it looks like on the client’s screen here. If you boost your proposal, you’ll show up in one of the top 4 spots on the client’s screen. Which means your proposal is WAY more likely to get viewed. And the chance that you get hired goes way up. If you don't boost your proposal, Upwork randomly assigns you a spot starting with #5. And as some jobs receive 50, 60, or even 70 proposals, that really hurts your chances. That being said, you don’t want to boost one million connects and waste your money – you need to be tactical about this. That’s why I only boost my proposal if I can boost it while spending less than 24 connects. Unless I have a unique advantage, like industry experience. In that case, I'll spend more. That’s the strategy – use it and watch your views skyrocket. Speak soon, Nico P.S. You can check your views by clicking on your profile picture, then 'stats and trends'. P.P.S.
