If you haven’t listened yet, here are Part 1 and Part 2 of our replay: 7 Ways to Land Clients.

Landing clients as a freelancer starts with visibility that feels genuine. When you show up with purpose, speak your clients’ language, and stay consistent, opportunities start finding you.

This is Part 3 of our live event 7 Ways to Land Clients, featuring freelance marketers from our Digital Marketer’s Workgroup. They’re sharing exactly how they position themselves online with Facebook groups, lead follow-ups, and peer referrals—without the burnout or “pick me” energy.

  • Brittany Gardner shares how showing up consistently in Facebook groups led to a 1,766% ROI, steady word-of-mouth referrals, and clients who now come to her.
  • Liz Cruz breaks down her strategy for following up with warm leads and positioning herself as the go-to expert, resulting in over $10K in booked client work in a single month.
  • Keri McDonnell brings insight into building long-term relationships and staying visible in the right communities, proving the power of genuine connection and consistency.

Listen to learn more about:

  • How to show up in Facebook groups and attract clients without sounding desperate
  • The “long-game” strategy that turns community engagement into steady referrals
  • Following up with warm leads and position yourself as the obvious choice
  • The secret to client retention and referrals through professionalism and consistency

If you’re ready to stop chasing clients and start attracting them, this episode shows you the proven, human-centered way to do it.
