you need to stand up to be seen...
make the right sounds to be heard...
touch in the right way to be felt.
Heres a story on ODesk about a lady from the Philipines wanting to break into the freelance scene and getting her first interview.
Soon, I realized that these buyers are not willing to invest on a provider who seemed to be less serious in taking a job. With so many providers applying for a particular job in oDesk it seemed to me that I was left out to providers with proven track record in oDesk.Although freelancing is different to a "time-and-materials" style contract there are some important things to do that are in common.
Are you thinking like this brand new freelancer seeking to be seen, heard, noticed?
How could you use her story to pinpoint areas to change
