Hello experts, after having long 14 years of experience, I am starting consultancy business. I was wondering if you offer your expert advice on how to get first client?
I would start by doing some things locally. I got my first client while I was still working a full time job using Upwork (or whatever it was called before). However, I get most of my clients by word of mouth, and by them searching for SharePoint and my state. I come up in search results because I speak at my local user group, and am active online. Also lots and lots of networking. Join any organizations you can.
Thank you Mark for your reply. Will try all the suggestions. I am very sure for myself that if I serve any client only for once, he/she will forever with us.
Lets see….
Ideally, you need contact that you can pull upon to get your first gig. If you don’t then consider doing a small project at low cost / free in return for a case study. Then there’s the obvious ways like tendering for gigs..
