As a freelancer, your productivity is of essential importance when it comes to finding work. The more work you do, the more work you will get; It is as simple as that.

Truelancer exhaustively supports its freelancers by providing them with numerous tools and techniques which help build a productive environment and generate more interest towards you. This comes in handy as you save a lot of time and effort which would have been spent if you had to take all the initiative yourself.

So here are our 5 tools which help you to be more productive.

1. Following the right people

 

Follow those people on Truelancer who do similar work like you or are prospective employers for the kind of work you are looking for.

This increases your chances of getting work and thus, increases your productivity.

As you follow people, your ratings increase and you become easily available to others.  Employers want less time and effort to hire somebody and following the right ones can just do the trick for you.

2. The Add Favourite option

 

This is a good tool for both employers and freelancers.

By adding a favourite to your list, you can directly reach him/here without taking the effort to find the person first then approaching them.

This reduction in time and effort increases your chances of getting hired and thus increases the amount of work you get, increasing your rankings and building your credibility.

It also creates a sense of goodwill which increases your brand value and people start liking you more.

3. Endorsements and Feedbacks

 

Endorsements and feedbacks as shown in these images are a great way of increasing your productivity and gaining more prospective clients on Truelancer.

After you complete your projects you should politely ask for endorsements and feedback.

The moment you receive one, your productivity increases and your chances of finding work increase manifold.

 

As a freelancer, it took me 2 months to find my first work on Truelancer, which happens everywhere but after the first work, and the consequent feedbacks and endorsements, I got 2 more jobs in the coming two days.

 

Hence, don’t underestimate their importance and ask for them in the most humble manners. Your skills should not make you arrogant or else they are not your skills.

4. The Sell Service Feature

 

The sell service option allows you to directly promote what you are willing to offer and for how much. This sends a clear message to specified people and the time which is spent on negotiations and bargains is almost nullified.

Truelancer also provides options like the discount feature which is a brilliant concept to attract prospective clients.
