Become a Freelance Web Designer Getting Clients From Jennifer Kyrnin, your Guide to Web Design / HTML Clients are the backbone of your business. And you should focus a portion of your time to getting new clients. Many Web designers get most of their new clients through word-of-mouth. In other words, your current client tells her friends that you were great to work with and then the friends call you. So your first priority should always be to making your existing clients as happy as you can make them. But one thing I've found is that clients don't always think to recommend you. So ask them for recommendations. If they like your work, they'll want you to be in business in a year when they do their redesign, and getting you more work can't hurt. But once you've asked all your current clients for recommendations, your next option is advertising. And there are ways to do that cheaply as well. Awesome Tips for Finding New Clients Finding new Web design clients can be scary, but if you follow these tips you'll soon have more clients than you know what to do with. There's more to it than just networking, but that is a primary part. Learn how to look good and keep your existing clients happy so that you get more clients. The Best Ways to Find New Clients These are suggestions from other Web Design readers who have found clients with these tricks. If you have your own suggestions, you can submit them too. 10 Ways to Run Your Own Advertising Campaign - Ads @ About Small Budget Advertising - Advertising @ About.com Creating Ads and Managing Your Budget - Web Search @ About This email is written by: Jennifer Kyrnin Web Design / HTML Guide Email Me | My Blog | My Forum   Missing a lesson?
