Complete your user profile
Customers are more likely to initiate contact with vendors who are transparent with accurate and updated details in their bio, nature of services, work history, experience and a photo gallery that showcases their work. Doing this helps boost visibility for your profile to potential customers and prompts them to discover you faster to request a quote, possibly leading to some conversion for you.

Respond quickly to enquiries
Customers like to hear from vendors as soon as they have found a potential match for their needs. Be sure to respond to their requests for quotes or messages as soon as you can. Remember there are other vendors who also meet the customer’s search criteria, so speed is a valuable asset for you.

Ratings and Reviews
Most people are drawn to profiles with high ratings and mostly positive reviews, as they are often a reflection of quality service and high customer satisfaction. Make an effort to leave a good impression on customers from when contact is initiated to when the task has been completed.  Reviews and ratings boost your profile score and significantly increase your chances of being contacted by more customers on the platform.
