Pro Tips for Upwork + Google Sheets

Track Your Win Rate

Add summary formulas to understand your freelancing performance:

• Total proposals sent: =COUNTIF(E:E,"Yes")
• Interviews: =COUNTIF(G:G,"Interviewing")
• Jobs won: =COUNTIF(G:G,"Hired")
• Win rate: =Jobs Won / Proposals Sent

Cross-Reference with LinkedIn

When evaluating clients or freelancers, check their LinkedIn profiles for more context. Add a LinkedIn URL column to cross-reference professional backgrounds.

Save Job Descriptions for Proposal Writing

Select the full job description and save it to a “Description” column. When writing proposals later, you’ll have the complete requirements in your sheet — no need to open the Upwork tab again. This is especially useful for saving text content you want to reference offline.

Extract Contact Information

If freelancer profiles or job postings contain email addresses or website links, use the email finder feature to extract them automatically.

Compare Across Job Platforms

Track freelancing opportunities from Upwork alongside jobs from Indeed and LinkedIn. Add a “Platform” column to see where the best opportunities come from.

5. Continue scanning the job feed
