    How Do Freelancers Onboard Their Clients

    The onboarding process is you explaining to your client what your workflow is: what tasks to expect to be completed when those will be completed, deadlines, service price, payment type, how and when to reach you; what is required from them before you start the work. This is a great way to determine your customer’s goals BEFORE you start working on the project because they can let you know in a hurry what they expect to achieve, but when they see it all written down they start to filter what is important and what’s not so important for them. In this episode, you will... Understand the importance of a strong onboarding process Learn what your onboarding process should include Know how to get returning freelance clients with a successful onboarding process Insights: Never assume that your client knows what you have to do. Explain to your customer what they can expect at every step. The most successful client-freelancer relationships work best when you understand each other's workflow and perspective. Impressing your customers with an onboarding process will help you do your job better. If you don't show your customer from the start that the process will run smoothly and easily, they will find someone else to bring them clarity. Tips: It should take you no more than 20 minutes to conduct your new onboarding process. Have your onboarding process as a presentation or a PDF File.

    How to Find Freelance Clients on LinkedIn

    And do you know what Google, Apple, and Netflix have in common? They all recruit contractors on LinkedIn. LinkedIn is one of the best ways to find clients and it served as an effective lead magnet, it’s like a non-stop shop where potential clients can find you, as long as you have your profile optimized for search. With more than 722 million users worldwide, LinkedIn has no shortage of potential customers. Compared to all the freelancing platforms out there, LinkedIn is not so crowded and this gives you an advantage. In this episode, you will… Find out how you can optimize your LinkedIn profile as a freelancer Understand how to send cold messages on LinkedIn Learn how to find freelance opportunities on LinkedIn Insights: Freelancers are hiring freelancers and this is called outsourcing. This is why your fellow freelancers are not your competition. A big reason for you to integrate LinkedIn into your business it’s because even if your clients find you on freelance platforms, they will still check your LinkedIn presence. Tips: Your headline is searchable! You are wasting so much space on LinkedIn if you do not update your headline properly. What you should have there is the keyword ''looking'' or ''seeking''. For example, ''Graphic designer looking for the freelance project'', boom! You have three keywords: designer, looking, and freelance. And this is important because people like me, recruiters, this is how we differentiate the active and non-active seekers on the platform and we are approaching those who show the intent of jumping into a new opportunity. Same with companies that are looking to hire the next freelance team member Once you know who your ideal client is, start networking with them. Build your network, make connections. Spend at least 20 minutes a day from Monday to Friday, commenting on posts that are in your niche, comment on your ideal customers’ posts. Congratulate people on their work achievements.
