How To Make Clients Chase You (Instead of you chasing them)
Chasing down clients can be one of the most frustrating parts of a freelancer's life. Competition can be tough. It's a harsh reality that there are hundreds, perhaps even thousands of other people offering the same type of service that you do, so standing out and becoming more attractive to clients can be difficult. Now, having clients chase after you instead of you chasing them - is that even a thing? How is that possible?
In this episode of FLIP Chat & Chill, let's talk about some practical ways that you can accomplish this. We'll talk about the basic concepts of branding and marketing and discuss specific measures you can undertake whether you are a newbie or an experienced freelancer.

You need to have "GANAS" in life & enjoy every single thing that you do. Everything will follow through your skills, learning things, and your client will recognised by your client and or other people including your family.
"I can only afford this much" Not always true but the key is in the negotiation
Lowballer = buraot (hehehe)

You should be confident with what you have on your skillset as a newbie with the courage to walk the talk that you are willing to be trained and learn countinously.
one way to make clients chase you is that do your work well or the best you can,finish it on time of before the time, and be amiable or open to them.

May FVA ba na Architectural/Building Construction ang background?
Yes. Many come from the Engineering side.
The thing about freelancing is (unless you choose to) you don't belong to a specific box. Regardless of your past, it's a question of whether you can do what the client asks you to do.
Phoenix Jackson Sa cover letter palang siguro, need ko na to mention ung skills, jobs I can do plus samples if they will require.
Since competitive na ang field sa. Kahit ano niche, dyo suggest that we learn first as noobs, or bank on our current skill set na lang muna and be confident na lang muna?

Setting rate margins
The moment na mabulol ka sa sagot mo sa tanong na "Are you worth that rate?" magdududa si potential client kung confident ka ba sa rate mo
I am not worth that rate ...(much more actually.)but my work does! 😉
Sa pricing ba... Dapat set it a little higher para pag mejo tumawad si client ng mas mababa mejo nasa mataas na range pa rin?
Since Freelancing is a business, ganyan ang approach ng iba. I, for one, do not practice that since (as I just mentioned) may mga clients who will not haggle. They'll see your price and either say yes or no (which is also the way I buy things).
Find out what works for you. Depende sa pag-approach iyan eh. If you are skilled at talking, or if you can attract people the more you talk, then by all means, initiate a haggling scenario.
Or if you're like me who just don't want to be bothered by too much talk, go for fixed price negotiation.
Phoenix Jackson nice. Thanks. Helpful.
