Why Most Upwork Proposals Fail (And How to Stand Out)

Most freelancers are using AI to write their Upwork proposals. The problem? Most proposals sound like they were written by AI. In this video, I explain exactly how I use ChatGPT to help me write proposals that still sound personal, natural and human. I cover: Why you shouldn't apply to every job. How I train one long ChatGPT conversation to learn my writing style. Why I personalize every proposal using the client's own words. How I choose portfolio samples for each specific project. Why I always ask questions to start a conversation. How video introductions help build trust before the first meeting. AI is an incredible tool, but only if you stay in control of it. Used well, it can make you faster without making you sound like everyone else. 📚 All my books https://tinyurl.com/paudet 📖 Crossroads – My free interactive guide to reinvention https://patriceaudet.com/pages/creati... 💬 The Crossroads Sessions https://patriceaudet.com/pages/crossr... 🎲 My board games portfolio https://patriceaudet.com If you're interested in freelancing, Upwork, entrepreneurship, reinvention after 40, and building a business around your creative skills, consider subscribing.
