Finding clients can be one of the most tricky parts of being a freelancer. Here’s a tip I’ve learned through the years - spend a few hours in your day searching job markets. Another way to find clients is to join social media groups in your target niche in order to get referrals.

I had to learn this lesson the hard way - There’s nothing wrong with holding on to the project until it’s been paid for. In fact, you shouldn’t do any work until it’s paid for. The deposit is for the thinking work, then another disbursement should be scheduled before production to cover that work, and the final payment is more a courtesy for the client.

This works every time. By keeping the conversation on ROI, you can make sure you’re advocating for the client’s successes even at this stage. As a freelancer, it is important to focus on helping clients define their priorities and understand the value you can bring to their business.

Don’t make the mistake of emailing your budget after discussing a project with a potential client. Be in the room for the conversation and be ready to address any concerns they have. Money talks are just as important as any other area of the projects success.
