    Couple of ideas -

    Go back to your clients and ask for referals

    Focus on a niche (for which you have got good experience and results) and start helping local businesses within the niche, or focus on a location and help businesses in that location ...

      Go to organizations like your local Chamber of Commerce, BNI, or other networking organization. There are plenty of potential clients that you could talk to. I've had great success landing new clients simply by talking to business owners and learning more about their business and explaining how I can help them.

      I think this is a very good approach. Business owners are generally part of a network and good testimonials from past owners goes a long ways to finding new clients.

        Start a newsletter offering some SEO tips, but don't give away your secrets. I still laugh at a client of mine who is a roofing contractor. He wrote a small book, "How to Repair Your Own Roof", and advertised it for free in local newspapers. Many people scoffed at this idea, thinking it would hurt his business since they would be able to do it themselves. But shortly thereafter his business really took off because when prospects saw just how difficult it is to repair a roof, they called him before anyone else. LOL!

          Malik,

          Become a War Room member, it's a one time fee,
          and get this report http://www.warriorforum.com/war-room...ntact-you.html.

          It's just a matter of targeting companies that have
          the budget for your service.

          With Gmail, you have extremely cheap phone calls to the US and UK.

          All the best,
          Ewen

    Set up some JVs with companies that do business with your target market. Make a brief presentation and offer solutions. You'll get clients.

    Go to your past clients and get testimonials and then target other businesses in that niche but not in the same area as your current/past client.

    For example approach another business (using an approach letter with the testimonial included followed two days later with phone call, this is the method I use) 20km or so away and leverage the success that you have had with that past client.

    I hope this make sense. It's 5.36am here and I have been up all night, time for bed.

    Hope it goes well for you.

    Guys thanks for the feedback.. but right now My problem is I am not a USA based so finding clients is soo different for me.. I have the ability but.huh!!

    but what Im thinking is to contact local service provider's and ask them to outsource some of their work to me. As this way they get commissions and I will do the work. Suggestions ?
