How do you find social media clients?

I found businesses who are small>medium size work best along with restaurants and other high traffic (retail) locations. You have many service related businesses that work too but you have to find your niche that you are comfortable with.

Think of what makes them unique then make it work for others.

You can look for clients by checking their social media account and offering them a service that they wont refuse. Also you can go to the SEO forums and introduce yourselves with what you do.

There is a specific section for social media jobs in sites like freelancer, odesk. You can place bids there to get social media related jobs. Facebook and twitter jobs are greater in number.

Go on craigslist or linkedin, there's a lot of people that do social media. I don't know much people that deal with social media but I'm trying to get in the hang of it.

Small-medium businesses are common clients that you can offer such services, you can compile a list and contact them either via mail or by calling. Give a good introduction of you and your company, then present the importance of your services and of course your rates.

Join related group pages. Build a good name first before introducing your service. By joining such, you will be able to see other members and their profiles.

This is a damn good question, I started the hunt for my first client last week and this is what i plan to do.

1. Start gathering raving clients, I have offered select groups on facebook free google authorship and connect setups. Im hoping because they are already on facebook and im setting up google+ profiles then i already know that they can leave a great comment on a speficic intro post on both fb, g+ and my website for potential clients to see.

Get potential clients to see those raving clients comments. After researching the competition i have realised most social media companies have reputable seo backgrounds so rather than try and compete im taking the old fasioned route with an introduction marketing letter.

The marketing letter will be delivered initial by hand, starting with shopping malls and main cbd. Later i'll expand internationally using telemarketing with the sole purpose of getting a contact name and postal address and post them out the same letter.

Sorry bout the novel, thats exactly how I plan to find social media clients, feel free to use this yourself, more than enough clients for everyone.

You can check the social media accounts of your clients and invite them.

Well, i think there are plenty of technique to fine social media client.
1- LinkedIn is going to be the best tool in your tool box when it come to finding big clients so make a good profile and that must be the profile of a Social Media Expert.
2- You can find potential clients from Freelance websites. Where people are searching for quality and professional social media experts.
3-When you get a potential client you should connect with the other people in his friends circular and ask them if they required social media services
4-Design a very simple and attractive website having well written content about social media services. This way people can easily access to you. those are searching for social media services.

Actually it's really hard to get this type of job.
If you are new in this sector then try to join on freelancer.com and tor to get a job like that.
