Length is one thing. Want a proposal that actually wins?
Score me freeHow characters are counted
Every letter, number, space, punctuation mark and line break counts as one character. An emoji or an accented letter also counts as one, the way you see it on screen.
Why the length matters
Most freelancing platforms cap the length of proposals, headlines and profile overviews. Clients also tend to skim, so the first couple of lines do most of the work. Check the count before you hit send, not after the form cuts you off.
