Let’s get some real talk going for a minute. Nod along if you agree with the following:
- Finding work is the hardest part of being a freelancer
- You have no idea where to find quality clients you love working with
- You’re 99.999% sure you’re looking for work in the wrong places
If you nodded along to all three of these statements, you are not alone. In fact, I’m willing to bet there was a synchronized nod all over the planet for that.
Because, yes, finding freelance work and building out our schedule with a full load of client work is HARD. It takes time, effort, and a certain amount of luck.
You probably read a ton of freelancing blogs, right?
Every week there’ll be a new way to find clients, whether it’s job boards (did you see my post on that last week?), social media, or blogging.
There’s always something new to try. Always some shiny new technique that promises to make you the richest and most successful freelancer on the planet.
But really? The key to boosting your client load and landing consistent work is simple.
It’s not about how many Tweets you can send out in a day, or how many guest posts you can write for blogs that may or may not have the same audience as your target client.
It’s about creating a service that’s NEEDED and selling it over and over again.
That really is the basis of creating and building a successful freelance business.
Finding out what your target clients need and providing them with that service. When you can do that? You’ll never be out of business.
“Alright, it’s easy enough for you to say that,” you’re probably yelling at your screen. “But how do I know whether my service is needed and how the heck can I sell it over and over again if I can’t even sell it once?”
This is where my brand new training Client Boost comes into play.
The main problem freelancers face, particularly those who have been at it for a while, is they can’t seem to get a consistent workflow going.
They have clients, sure, but there are no on-going projects. Their income fluctuates month by month. One week they might be snowed under with work and are raking in the dollar, while the next week they’re eating beans on toast and praying that an email pops in their inbox finally buying their services.
This is no way to live. And I promise you, you don’t have to live like that as a freelancer (even if the media wants you to believe that!).
Client Boost is an extremely actionable one-off training session that outlines a simple and ridiculously effective way to land clients overnight (that’s no exaggeration).
Forget about bidding to the bottom on low-paying content mills. Forget wasting time going backwards and forwards with clients who don’t value you. Forget about scrabbling around trying to get enough money together at the end of the month.
In Client Boost, you’ll learn:
- How to come up with a highly-coveted service that clients can’t wait to get their hands on (and will pay over the odds for)
- A step-by-step system to sell that service over and over again (so you never have to take low-paying work to meet the bills again)
- Discover EXACTLY how to approach your ideal client (so they can’t say no to your service)
- How to use the tools and networks you already have to get booked out months in advance
This training is perfect if you need a boost in your client roster, if you’re struggling to get clients at all, or if you’re looking for a sound marketing tactic that’s simple, effective, and works a charm every. single. time. No joke.
Complete with an in-depth workbook to put each step into action straight away, this successful strategy is all you need to grow your business overnight.
Even better? Client Boost is just $29. Yes, really, I must be crazy to sell it that low. Just $29 to arm yourself with a system you can use every week, every month, or as and when you need it to give your client load a much-needed boost. Find out more here or click the button below!
I loved this! I have picked up clients fairly steadily, but I am trying to hone my skills and really focus on doing what I love AND offering a valuable service. This article was just what I needed to read!
So glad you liked this, Kim! Offering a valuable service is key – when you’ve nailed that, the clients will roll in.
Timing is impeccable! Loved this and needed to hear it! Great article!!
Thanks, Tommie! So glad you enjoyed the piece!
