Getting Clients

I hear the same question from aspiring VA's time and time again. "How do I find clients?" Fortunately, it isn't as difficult as it seems. However, it does take work and time. Here are a few strategies to help get you started:

• Set up a website. Make sure that it is easy to contact you through your website, too.
• Network, network, network. Tell everyone you meet about what you do.
• Start a pay per click advertising campaign.
• Try websites like www.guru.com, www.elance.com, www.genuinejobs.com, www.ifreelance.com, etc. to help get you started.
• Reduce the risk for prospects. Guarantee your work.
• Ask existing clients for referrals. Happy clients are the best type of advertising!

While building a clientele base doesn't happen overnight, you can grow your business effectively by being proactive. It's all about finding new ways to promote yourself.
