🚀 Your Upwork portfolio can be the difference between landing a job and getting overlooked. Here are three game-changing takeaways from this week’s Ultimate Portfolio Playbook session:
✅ Eye-Catching Thumbnails Matter – Buyers skim! Use high-quality images, faces, and bold visuals to make your portfolio pop. A boring file icon won’t cut it.
✅ Strategic Samples Only – Showcase work you WANT to do, not just what you’ve done. Create mock samples if needed—AI makes this easier than ever!
✅ Optimize for Engagement – Add compelling descriptions (not just one-liners), include skills tags, and use Upwork’s portfolio link feature to share your work outside the platform.
💡 Pro tip: Aim for 3-5 solid samples—too few looks empty, too many overwhelms.

JOB OF THE WEEK
💡 Coach Ruth’s Job of the Week: UGC for
50+ Women! 💡
This week, Ruth handpicked a unique job—a User Generated Content (UGC) project specifically for U.S. women ages 50-65! 🎥 Why? Because it’s rare to see jobs that call out this demographic—but expect to see more! 🔥
Key takeaways:
✅ UGC is in demand—Brands want real-life content, not polished ads. Simple videos talking about a product!
✅ No experience? No problem! 🎬 Create a quick sample—record a short, natural video about any product you love and add it to your portfolio or simply attach it to your proposal.
✅ 50+ is a powerful market! 💰 Brands are targeting this demographic because they have the spending power.
💡Has an intriguing job caught your eye? Send us a screenshot & the link—yours could be featured in an upcoming Tuesday Night Call! 🚀✨
