Social Media Marketing: How exactly can I get clients for my monthly social media writing service?
GB

Grant Boyd answered:

Hello,

I think that this a problem that can easily be worked around to suit your skills. I myself, am also sort of an introvert. For finding new clients, I have always found that going online and finding businesses that I would want to have as clients, has worked for me the best.

After learning more about their business, you can 'cold email' them. I have found that this a good approach for me because I can effectively lay out my service to the potential client and it allows them to respond to me on their own time; whereas forcing them to accept a cold call. The same approach can work by finding social media accounts for businesses that are lacking and then Tweeting/Messaging them about your business and how it can benefit them.

I believe that offering someone a reward for finding clients for you is a viable option, but I think that you can still be an introvert and be successful in finding clients.

I hope that these were some options that you will consider, if you have not already. If I can help in any other way, please do not hesitate to contact me.

-Grant
