#218: How To Use Social Media To Start ATTRACTING Clients (Instead Of Chasing Them) | With Chris Smith


Listen Later

The most difficult part of freelancing is attracting high-quality clients to you (especially early in your career).

Most people resort to two main "desperation tactics" when their schedules thin out...

Desperation Tactic 1: They start sending cold emails/DMs to people who don't have any idea who they are.

Desperation Tactic 2: They start publishing desperate-looking "hire me" posts on their socials. Things like "50% off THIS MONTH ONLY. HMU".

While they're chasing leads down like a starving troglodyte desperately hunting for food, there's a better way to market your business as a creative.

So what's the better way? That's what Chris Smith—our guest this week—wrote the book on...

While the book is called "The Conversion Code", the tagline says it all: "Stop chasing leads and start attracting clients".

No one wants to be "hunted", but most people want to be attracted to something/someone.

In this episode, Chris breaks down how to use social media to start attracting more clients instead of resorting to desperation tactics.
