Ever wondered how Upwork clients think and why they make the choices they do?Why do they hire other freelancers when you're more qualified?How do they search for solutions for problems, and what solutions do they really need?What about industry expectations, and how can you avoid upsetting clients without changing who you are?
In Upwork Client Psychology 1 we'll try to answer all of those questions for you. In this course I've done my best to share useful insights from my experience as a freelancer, psychology graduate student and professional personality profiler.
The goal of this course is not to make you an expert in psychoanalysis, nor is it to improve your Upwork proposal process. Instead, we'll focus on how clients think, decide and act. This is about getting inside their heads so you better understand how to engage, interact and communicate with each client for better results.
Consider this course the pre-cursor to Advanced Upwork Proposals II (coming soon). By learning a bit of client psychology you will have what you need to improve your proposal process, get more responses faster, and have better experiences overall.
Why learn basic client psychology? By learning some of the fundamentals of how clients think, you can tailor your solutions for their needs and deliver your services in the most effective ways possible. You do this because it's smarter than shooting at shadows in a room without light.
