Helllooooooo!
How have you been?
Last week was crazy! (LinkedIn wise)
One of my posts crossed 93k impressions and I gained 475 followers since last Friday.
Now this was because I made two bold claims.
I sent a ‘Why NOT Work with me’ DM to a client and it worked in my favor.
I find clients on LinkedIn.
Now, if there are two things most people struggle with, they’re outreach and finding clients—especially on LinkedIn.
So when I said I’ve been bold and doing both, it caught traction.
TBH, I didn’t expect it even 1%. But that’s the thing with LinkedIn—you never know what’s going to work.
Which brings us to today’s edition.
"LinkedIn is golden for finding clients? I’m so confused."
I addressed the first part and shared the outreach DM the next day, in case you haven’t seen it, here it is.
How I go about finding clients on Linkedin?
Short Answer.
I stalk companies I wanna work with, check if they work with freelance writers, find the decision makers and send them a DM.
I also stalk me fellow freelancer writers, check which companies they are working with, and DM them.
And I post regularly on LinkedIn which brings inbounds and referrals.
Long Answer (THE HOW)
My Formula That Works:
Find the right person + get straight to the point + have patience.
Want to know if a company even works with freelance writers? Go to their company page, search for people, and filter for "freelance" or "freelance writer."
