Ten Tips for Successful Freelancing
First Tip: Offer More Services in Same Price
It is one of the best ways to compete with your competitors that
you offer more valued services in the same prices as compared to
your competitors. You just have to use your mind and have to
create new ideas in this regards.
By doing such kind of things, you can easily compete with your
competitors. If you can’t compete on price with your competitor
then you can surely beat him by providing more quality services.
You have to offer some incremental kind of services to your client
so that your offer becomes more attractive. For offering extra
services, you don’t have to charge any more cost. You have to
present yourself in such a way that you are much better as
compared to your nearest competitor.
Here are some ways by which you can make your offer more
worthy
· You can offer free HTML formatting without taking any kind
of charges.
· You can make an offer of adding images to the writing
without having any extra charges.
· You may offer them a free article after every ten
· While book writing, you can offer to make a table of content
without any extra cost.
Second Tip: Get Familiar With Your Unique Selling Point (USP)
Unique selling point is something which is not offered by any of
your competitor. For a successful business, you must be familiar
with your unique selling point.
It should be related to the market in which you are working so
that it will be a big plus point for you. It should be a thing that
really makes you superior if compared to your competitors.
Below are some unique selling points from the perspective of
freelance writers:
· If you have a college degree in a certain area then it would
be helpful for you in getting work related to that field. For
example, if you hold a degree in nursing then you can get
medical related articles easily.
· If you have any kind of professional experience like if you
remain a veterinarian then it would be easy for you to get
articles related to pet care.
· If you have any kind of journalism experience then it would
be helpful for you in all respects in field of freelance writing.
· If you can write fluently in more than one language then it
will be big plus point for you as number of people required
articles in different languages.
· If you are attached to a certain group then you can write
articles more conveniently if you get a task to write about
others in that group.
Third Tip: Believe in Yourself
You can easily convince other persons if you feel that no one is
better than you. For selling services, first of all you should be
confident of yourself so that others can have confidence in you.
While selling, you are selling yourself instead of selling your
services.
Fourth Tip: Provide Premium Services
You have to provide premium services to your clients without
incurring extra cost so that you can earn business from that
client on repetitive basis.
There are numbers of ways by which you can make sure that you
are offering the best services
· You can offer revision of articles without charging any cost
· Finish your assigned task well before time
· Answers calmly about all the questions asked by your client
· Remove your mistakes if you found them at your end so
that your client can’t notice them
· Don’t lose your temper and remain polite even your client
bursts rudely on you
Fifth Tip: Have regular Communication
Your client has trusted you so it is your duty to keep him/her
update with the status of the work on regular basis. As he has
put his business, his money and his work on stake by trusting
on an unknown person so you have to provide updates to him
regularly.
They always feel better when you remain in touch with them.
They get the confidence that you will not ditch them.
If you remain in touch with your client then in case of any delay
in work wouldn’t bother your client. He wouldn’t object on it
unless he has a strict schedule too. So, it’s better to tell your
client about your delay unless he asks himself.
Sixth Tip: Go For testimonials
If you have testimonials then you will be more reliable in the eyes
of your clients as compared to others. Basically, Testimonials are
kind of a social proof that how much trust worthy are you?
You should try to provide URL along with pictures of the person
who is giving you testimonial. In this way, your testimonial will
give more real look and people will rely upon you.
Seventh Tip: Try To Get Business on Repetitive Basis
A new customer always cost more as compared to old one.
Retaining an old customer is always good for the progress of
business. There are number of things that should be done by
you so that you client returns to you more work.
· Send your clients regular mails by building a mailing list
· Send special discount offers to your regular clients and
other discount offers to other clients
· Provide discount offers to your clients on achieving different
milestones
· Try to give prizes or schemes to your loyal customers on
regular basis
· If you make a mistake or delayed the work then try to
compensate your client.
Eighth Tip: Provide Discounts On Articles Volume
Big orders always generate big portion of income so you have to
offer discounts to such clients so that they continue to work with
you. You should try to develop a long term relationship with
such kind of clients.
In this regard, you can play mind game with such kind of clients
as well. If you wanted to perform a task in $12 then price
yourself at $15 to $20. Then show them a special discount and
put $12 rate in the quotation.
You have to discourage such people who give small number of
articles to you so your discount slabs should be managed as per
your policy.
You have to save your time by taking one large order instead of
taking numbers of small orders. In this regard, you will waste lot
of time while talking to different clients which will disturb your
work.
Here is a sample of a scale that you can lay down for yourself.
Like if your lowest price for writing per page is $12 then your
scale should like
· Articles range from 1 to 4 would be charged at $20 each
· Articles range from 5 to 9 would be charged at $18 each
· Articles range from 10 to 19 would be charged at $16 each
· Articles range from 20 to 29 would be charged at $14 each
· 30 articles or more would be charged at $12 each
Ninth Tip: Always Encourage Referrals
The best way to grow your business is to get maximum number
of referrals. Your existing clients are the best marketing tool.
Many people do such kind of things at their own but on the other
hand many don’t do so.
Some people refer you just to gain any kind of incentive or a
percentage of commission. Some will not refer you as they think
that you will get too busy and wouldn’t give them their time.
Some don’t do this just because they don’t remember about it as
they don’t have enough time to remember these sorts of things.
Incentives are of different kinds like they may include some
amount of cash or they may include some percentage or you
might give an article free for every ten articles.
By offering such kind of offers, people not only refer you further
but also provide you courage to perform the task efficiently.
Tenth Tip: Prove Yourself Irreplaceable
If you provide your best services at affordable rates and that
services matched with the client’s requirements too then you will
become simply irreplaceable until anything goes wrong. This is
one of the best ways to gain maximum amount of business.
You have to offer best price but by keeping in mind that you
don’t have to make loss. You should try to return the completed
assignment well before the time. Try to do as friendly discussions
as possible.
Always price your services at reasonable amount. If you price
yourself at low then you are simply going to burn yourself. It
would put negative impact upon your business.
