So what happened just now is ridiculous. After reading @SinisterLex thread on copywriting on Upwork, I decided to take action right now, dug up my lost profile and went on to find my first client.
I decided to take the first one as it was someone new and needed descriptions for his awesome looking portfolio items. Of course, I decided to impress him by doing the first one for free (1/11) and charging him for the rest. Plus embed the text right into his website and send him a screenshot.
Well that took me half an hour and when I came back to write the proposal by the time I hit the send button it went private!? WTF?
I wasn't going to give that easily, so emailed the guy through his website and told him what happened also offering my service if he is interested.
Let's see what happens next


Decided it is something interesting to share.
