    Are you listed on the freelance sites? Are you bidding on gigs on the freelance sites? Do you have a portfolio to show clients?


    Can you branch out and offer other skills as well as 'wordpress designer'? If the economy is not great the first thing people stop buying are the things they CAN do without. The easier it becomes to use WP ...the less need there is for someone to do it for you.


    Two months is a long time to have NO business. How long have you been doing this freelance work? Were you earning a good income in the past?

    Dear April: I don't want any trouble from you.
    January was long, February was iffy, March was a freaking dumpster fire.
    So sit down, be quiet, and don't touch anything.

    What it all comes down to is your strategy .

  • Here are your variabyools:

    Sales. World. Me. Clients.

    Also: your order in that pertickuler sentence.

    Mebbe it would help to rephrase your question.

    See bcs if'n you were FORCED AT GUNPOINT to start with Clients first ... how might your question play out?

    Plus also, what ansas would it invite?

    New businesses are not opening much. People have been spoiled by stock markets, cryptos, and simply sitting at home, etc. Market needs a crash (probably next year) to get everyone out of their comfort zone.

    Also, freelancers at low level jobs have increased due to the new "work from home" culture and lack of job openings introduced by COVID. So service providers need to enhance their skills to survive due to higher than ever competition.. Also, think about other business models where your dependency on getting new clients reduces.

    Hint: Money is in the list

    The market is getting saturated. If your product needs to compete with others, it needs to have an edge over others.

      Do you really think the market is saturated? I feel like there are many people who try then they give up.

      Where can I read more about "Amazon niche site template"?

    I am seeing you are creating websites for clients the first thing I would ask is where are you advertising your services?

    Remember is you dont advertise nothing happens nobody knows of your services and of course when word of mouth slows down you are in the position you are in.

    You could create a nice Amazon niche site template and then run a WSO to sell your template offering additional services.

    You have to get creative and remember advertising is the key you could also reach out and offer your services to some Warriors at a special rate if they need services.

    Are you going back to past clients to see if they need any additional web design features? Do you have a group of prospects that you can market to for the possibility of turning them into clients? Are you actively posting new content on your site that attracts people to your website? Does your service fee allow you to run paid advertising? Are you posting new services on the freelance sites?
