    In this video I break down the three main ways I find new consulting clients for my analytics consulting agency Silvertone Analytics. Getting your first analytics client is going to be a major challenge... but don't worry! Once you get your first analytics consulting client under your belt, it's much easier to land your next client. 

    I've been consulting in the analytics space for about 4 years now and have had a lot of experience pitching new clients. I actually have a handful of clients who have hired me for multiple projects. Before you get to this point though, you need to build up your experience as a consultant which is very different from working as a full time employee. In this video I walk through the three main ways I use to bring in new analytics consulting clients.
