For a newbie, your profile is most important in attracting Buyers. Make an excellent description of your self and the services you offer.
Then create gigs - for services you can conveniently and excellently deliver. Upload appropriate gig images to the gigs. Having done all that, try and be regular on the platform.
Check Buyer's Request page often and bid for jobs you can excellently and conveniently deliver. Many jobs I handled at the beginning came from Buyer's Request bids I submitted. Best of luck.
I am from... THE WORLD...
Born and raised in Barcelona, Spain... a little bit from Costa Rica, a little bit Dominican, and with my heart in Naples, Florida.
I contacted customer service about this, as my husband wanted to open an account with a total different niche, and they said we can´t have two accounts under the same IP.
Something else that should be fixed in BR. I sent an offer through BR, client decided to purchase 10 months after! I was away on holidays when they placed the order… I contacted CS and they told me nothing could be done… so I had to do the job and deliver on time… There should also be a button to remove sent offers.
