BYP 15 – Initial Client Acquisition Strategies

by Mike Kim 4 Comments

How do you land your first clients? What do you do if you haven’t yet “established authority” … but need to get some paying work?

In today’s episode I cover my initial client acquisition strategies.

A Quick Preview of the Podcast:

These are the strategies I used to land my very first clients. From there, my client acquisition snowballed. I talk about the Google principle, what I did to “cold contact” potential leads, and share the one thing you need to BE in order for others to send you referral clients.

I also share how I got on the radar of bigger influencers in my field … and ended up speaking at conferences, getting writing opportunities, and more.

Special thanks to Jon Harrison from the Classically Trained leadership blog for leaving a review this week!

Other folks mentioned in today’s episode:

  • Jared Easley from the Podcast Movement conference
  • Ray Edwards, one of my mentors and favorite podcasters
  • John Kramp from the Riverstone Group, my favorite leadership blog
