Building an online reputation

To achieve maximum success, a freelancer needs to grow as a specialist, because this is the only way to become a professional in a certain field and forget about the competition at the initial stage of work. In the online world, at the initial stage of building cooperation, you are deprived of direct communications with a potential customer, which means you need to use a strong weapon – your reputation.

What does a freelancer’s reputation consist of?

The main criteria are experience and professional skills, the ability to communicate with clients, the quality of work and feedback on cooperation, the opportunity to get acquainted with examples of work. These factors influence the customer’s decision on further cooperation, therefore, in order to successfully build a reputation on the network, a freelancer needs to go from six months to a year of hard work.

How to successfully create a personal brand?

Love what you do and choose tasks based on your tastes and preferences. You should not do everything in a row and agree to do boring, cheap work. Focus your maximum efforts on a few projects that arouse your interest and desire to do quality work, which will help you realize your plan within the agreed time frame.

  • Before accepting a job or submitting a request for it, you need to study the nature of the job and understand if you can handle it. Study the essence of the task, pay attention to the complexity, nuances of writing, deadlines, and only after that take on the project.
  • If you already have several projects, check your schedule and to-do list before taking on another one. This will help make sure that you have time to complete the work and do not let the customer down.
  • You will certainly face competition, because many interested freelancers are registered on the freelance exchange. Your main task is to convince the customer that by choosing you he will get quality work and will not make a mistake with the choice. Use your portfolio for this, customer reviews of previous transactions, and communication is the main lever of influence.
  • When discussing the assignment, study the client to better understand how he sees the finished work. If you have questions, feel free to ask them, and it is also very important to enjoy communicating with a person, otherwise it is better to stop cooperation.
  • Being objective about your own time will let you know how much work you can actually get done.

If at the initial stage everything went well, the customer made a choice in your direction and you are ready to start a new project, you should follow a few simple steps for proper communication with the customer. You can call the client to once again discuss the deadlines and the final result of the work, after which you can safely proceed to the task. During the conversation, you can clarify how it will be convenient for the client to work with you, perhaps he wants to receive finished material at each stage of its readiness, how you can send a report and what time is more convenient to contact the customer so as not to distract him from other matters.

Be sure to specify the deadlines for completing the task, they can relate to both the phased delivery of the material, and the completely finished work. Check if you have prepared everything to get started, if you have questions on the technical task, it is better to clarify them before starting. If suddenly you have difficulties, you understand that you will not have time to hand over the work on time, it is better to immediately inform the customer about this so as not to completely let him down.

Interaction with the customer during the project

Do not be afraid to take the initiative and inform the client about your progress, the status of the work. Your activity is just a manifestation of interest in the quality performance of the task, as well as a method to build the client’s trust. You can talk forever about the deadlines for completing the task, because this is really a key factor in productive cooperation. It is very important not to let your customers down, and if something goes wrong, inform the customer in a timely manner. It is better to ask several times if you are in doubt than to redo a huge piece of work twice. The speed of response is also part of your reputation, since the client does not have to wait long for you to answer a simple question. After the transaction is completed, do not forget to remind the customer to leave feedback about your cooperation.

After the end of cooperation, you can get a profitable offer for long-term cooperation. In any case, you will receive positive feedback, maybe even a recommendation, work for your portfolio and a good experience. A request for feedback will be appropriate at the time of delivery of the project, especially if it meets the expectations of the customer. Do not be afraid of criticism or adjustments to the work, because you and the client have different views on the same things. If the client expressed his dissatisfaction, you need to listen to his opinion and take the comments into account. But if you do not agree with the final outcome, do not be silent, but correctly argue your point of view. To avoid such moments, it is very important to be able to listen to the client and do the work according to his vision.

If you find a new client on the freelance exchange, ask him to complete the project after you receive confirmation of the delivery of the material. The project completion function often involves the creation of a client feedback on the work received and cooperation with this contractor. Perhaps the client wants to continue cooperation with you and with one click invites you to a new project, which has a positive effect on the reputation on the network.

What your CV should look like for a client:

  • experience and examples of work in a particular area
  • Efficiency in communication, providing information about their services and answering questions
  • interest in completing the task, finding out all the nuances for writing the task and communicating with the customer in the course of cooperation
  • reviews from previous clients
  • indicating the exact deadlines and the price of this type of work

When, after many sleepless nights, the diploma is finally ready, I want to pass it and forget it. But the university will not lag behind the student so easily. After all, the full text of the diploma was read only by the supervisor, and a whole commission will gather to evaluate it. Therefore, in many respects, his assessment depends on how the student defends his diploma.

So what is a successful defense?

  • Competent protection text
  • positive diploma review
  • confident answers to commission questions

In the introduction to the course it is necessary to indicate many important points. One of them is methodology. The student is required to indicate what methods he will use in the study of the topic. This is not the easiest task, and often students cannot cope with this task themselves. In this case, you can contact us. Our experts will write you a paper of any complexity, and you can discuss the price with them personally.

Speech structure

Of course, what exactly to say in the defense depends mainly on the topic of the thesis and on what exactly is written in it, but there are general recommendations that are suitable for everyone.

  • First of all, we need to greet the members of the evaluation committee. (“Dear members of the attestation commission! Your attention is presented to the final qualifying work on the topic …”)
  • Introductory part. Here you need to reveal the topic and identify the issues that are raised in the work.
  • Relevance of the topic. At this stage, it is important to prove the relevance of the chosen topic and the degree of its development in other people’s works. Indicate the subject, object, objectives and purpose of the study.
  • Theme disclosure structure. Here you just need to list the paragraphs that are in the work and briefly describe them.
  • Problem statement. To confirm the relevance of the topic, it is necessary to state the problem and indicate the debatable opinions on this matter.
  • Conclusions. At the end of the speech, the commission should hear the conclusions that the student came to in the course of writing the diploma, in which there are ways and methods for solving the stated problems.

On the one hand, it seems that it is much easier to write a graduation speech than the diploma itself. However, high-quality speech is a skillful squeeze out of the work, as well as its competent presentation. And it often happens that a diploma is written with the highest score, and a student gets a worse grade. Therefore, if there is a lack of self-confidence, you can order a speech on our website. And then the probability of failure due to bad speech will disappear. After all, we give a twenty-day guarantee for the work, and if something does not suit you, you can demand that the author finalize the order for free. We make sure that students are satisfied, so if the final version of the work does not meet the stated requirements, you will get your money back.

Formal requirements

When writing a speech for a thesis, you must also take into account that there are purely formal requirements.

  • Time. Do not forget that there are many students, but the commission is one. Therefore, the time for a defensive speech is regulated and ranges from 5 to 7 minutes. At the same time, you should remember about the time that will be spent on commission questions.
  • Intonation. Where, no matter how on the defense of a diploma, is it important to win over listeners? Therefore, it is better not to read the speech monotonously, making accents with intonation.
  • Style. When presenting a speech, it should be remembered that the main goal is understanding on the part of the commission. Therefore, you should not be too smart, but you can’t switch to colloquial speech either. In this matter, you need to observe the golden mean.
  • Pronouns. As in the diploma itself, it is important to remember during the defense that although the author of the diploma is clearly spelled out, there are a lot of true owners of knowledge reflected in the work (the authors of all the sources the student relied on plus the supervisor), so first-person pronouns are not appropriate here.
  • Questions. After the end of the speech, questions from the commission will inevitably follow, and you need to be ready for them. Suggested questions should be written down in the course of writing the thesis, work through all the questions that arose during the pre-defense, and you can also look at the questions at the end of chapters from textbooks on this topic.
  • Pre-protection. In such a matter as defending a diploma, it is better not to be presumptuous and neglect pre-defense. On it, you can practice giving a speech and write down possible questions from the audience. This will allow you to feel more confident in the official defense.

Of course, these are only recommendations, and no one forces you to strictly follow them. However, the rejection of some positions during the defense will create additional questions from the certification committee, which is not always loyal. Therefore, it is best to think through all possible questions and answer them in advance in a defensive speech. Then the teachers will have a minimum of questions, and they will be grateful for the saved time.
