A dedicated Upwork bidder for freelancers and agencies in Vancouver.
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Improvexus is an Upwork bidding agency. If you're a Vancouver freelancer selling video & animation, game development and web development, we pick the jobs that are worth your Connects, get to them while they're new and write each proposal to the client's brief.
What Vancouver is known for, and what it means for your bid.
Vancouver is known for film, television, visual effects and animation, and it has a strong games and software scene. It's on Pacific Time, so your day lines up with clients in California, and you're well placed for Asia-Pacific clients later on.
Video, animation & creative production
What clients screen forA reel in the same style and length as the brief. A client who wants a 30-second product video won't sit through a wedding montage.
How we open the proposalLink the one piece that's most similar. Say what you need from the client, such as footage, a script or brand assets, and give a delivery date along with the number of revision rounds.
Game development
What clients screen forA playable build or a shipped title in the same engine. Studios and solo founders both judge by what they can see running.
How we open the proposalName the engine and the platform and link something playable. Keep the first milestone small. A prototype of one mechanic is easier to trust than a promise of a whole game.
Web & software development
What clients screen forA finished project in the same stack, and some sign that you read the technical brief properly. Clients in this category have often been let down by a developer who said yes to everything.
How we open the proposalName the stack and the hardest part of the brief in your first two lines. Link one build that's close to it and say what the first milestone would deliver.
When Upwork's clients start work, in Vancouver time.
When clients on the US East Coast start work at 9:00 am, it is 6:00 am in Vancouver. That's before most people have started work, so you usually miss the first hours of a new posting.
