Your profile is how you present yourself to the Efrelance community. We encourage you to highlight your expertise and present yourself professionally.

If you're selling for the first time, go to Start Selling.

Create and Complete Your Seller Profile As soon as you've completed the onboarding, you can create your seller profile.

Note: You'll need to complete a minimum of 65% of your profile for your seller account to be published. One linked account is required, and phone verification must be completed at the end.

Steps 1 & 2: Personal and Professional Info

Step 1: Personal Info

  1. Fill in your full name.
    • Note: This information will remain private.
  2. In the Profile Picture section, add an image of yourself.
    • Your profile picture must be an original image of you, or your company logo/image that represents the service you provide.
    • Your profile picture must not be an image of someone else, a celebrity, or a misrepresentation of your service.
    • GIFs are not acceptable profile images.
    • Note: Ensure you own the picture you upload.

Step 2: Professional Info

  1. Under Occupation, select your expertise and checkbox your relevant skills.

    • Note: Up to 2 fields, and up to 5 skills.
  2. Under Skills, add your skills to let clients know your expertise.

    • Note: These may be skills gained through previous jobs, hobbies, or everyday life.
  3. In the Description section, write a description to help introduce yourself to the Efrelance community.

    • Note: Highlight your expertise, projects you're proud of, or anything else you'd like to share on your public profile.
  4. Under Education, select when and where you attended college.

    • You also have the option to suggest your diploma if it's not listed.
    • Suggestions will appear as "pending" on your profile until approved.
    • Note: Suggestions are periodically reviewed and will not be automatically added.
  5. In the Languages section, select the languages you speak and your level of fluency.

  6. Under Certifications, list your awards, certifications, and honors.

    • This section can help you stand out from other sellers.
    • You also have the option to suggest certifications.
  7. Under Personal Website, enter your website's URL to share your portfolio or other works.

  8. Click Continue.

Step 3: Account Security

  1. In the Email field, click Verify now and follow the prompts if you haven't verified your account yet.

  2. In the Phone Number field, click Verify now and continue the process.
