How long do you need to spend to create an effective Elance proposal?
Wouldn’t it be simple if this question came with a single, definitive answer?
Like: “18 minutes, 45 seconds.”
Then you could just set your stopwatch and type madly until the timer went off. Easy peasy.
Unfortunately, the real answer is a little more complicated. But it’s well worth taking the time to refine your proposal-writing strategy to minimize the amount of time you need to spend on this unpaid activity.
