Thanks for your questions. “How to make a client trust me without any review on my profile?”

The best way to show that you can do the job in the field you signed up for is to somehow prove that you’re qualified. It can be a challenge on sites like Freelancer where you’re only one in a pool of other similar workers, so the first few jobs can be difficult if you don’t have reviews or referrals.

That doesn’t mean that it’s impossible. Without reviews from previous clients, your pitch, or bid, to prospective clients can say a lot. If you’ve had some experience in your field, you can offer a link to other projects you’ve completed from the past (an online portfolio would come in handy if you’re a visual artist).

You can also build up your profile to give prospective clients an idea of who you are and what you’re capable of as a professional. Freelancer has a few ways to show off your capabilities without having to take on jobs first by taking the proficiency tests. Some employers do look at those to get an idea of what you know and what you can do.

Past that, you also have to show how well you communicate with prospective clients. Show that you’re a professional by being quick to respond to queries, and maybe try to bid lower at the start–never mind the money at the beginning. If you’re in it for the long haul, focus on gaining a reputation first.
