And...how to apply it to getting more freelance clients
[A THREAD]
Things like,
* Likability
* Charisma
* Uniqueness
* Confidence
all play a vital role in getting whatever it is you want.
* Inflate others ego
* Focus on the value you're bringing them
* Focus on them in general, make it all about them
* Be a ballsy MFer, exude massive amounts of confidence
* Don't say what everyone else does, be different
* Make the person feel listened to
* Be a whopping pussy and communicate like you're helpless
* Blow them up, there's a difference between persistence and annoyance
* Focus on yourself and how good you are at something
* Criticize the other person
* Be boring, having no flare and no self-respect
The premise of freelance outreach is really one thing:
Cold emails or DMs
Sure, you can cold call, but I think instant messaging works better.
You want to use psychology in your favor...so you want to:
* Focus on the client's pain points, agitate em' a lil' why not
* Be confident in your services and act with outcome independence
* Use curiosity to get the client interested
* Be ballsy
Wait a bit to respond
Show slight interest, don't fully commit
Again, can't stress this enough, be confident in your response
All in all?
Be slightly hard to get
The former works beautifully, latter rarely does.
Now, when you get them on the phone...this is where the real magic happens hehehehehehehehehe
Nah
Be Mr. "Oh yeah, I have a few other clients right now, so I'll try to fit you in my schedule...oh, by the way, how does $1000/month sound?"
Let em' know YOU are the prize.
Yes. You.
Get em' excited. Crack a joke, get their emotions all riled up, express all your benefits and print a vision for them. It works.
Then, with the biggest pair of BALLS you have got (I know, they're still kinda small)
Close. Hard.
"Well sir, it looks like I'll be doing x,y,z for you, and you know no one in this world works for free. But, since you're such a great (friend, person, guy), I'd like to cut you a deal. $1000/month for all of this. I usually charge double that, but its you"
Personalization
Look at you. You've got a new freelance client.
Wait...no you fuckin' don't, you're still reading this thread.
GO TAKE ACTION.
Do me a solid.
