BIP #12 How I'm going to acquire clients

As a new freelancer, I need to be at the top of my game when acquiring clients. Clients are the lifeblood of any freelance business 'cause without them, there's no cash flow and without cash flow, there's no freelance business.

These are methods I intend to use in acquiring freelance clients (I've started implementing some).

The first thing I'll do is decide on my target audience (industry, niche, platform and so on).

Then I'll get on freelance platforms like Fiverr.

I'll also start building my social media presence (doing this already)

I'll pitch my target audience (cold and warm pitches).

Finally, I'll pitch freelancers whose services are vertical to copywriting to gain initial traction: web designers and email marketers.

What do you think?
