This Guide is based on techniques that freelancers are actually using.

Like cold calling.

While it’s true that cold calling has a bad reputation – and the Guide explains why that reputation is deserved – it can be a very effective way to find buyers for your services.

In my freelancing business, cold calling has led me to a much more interesting and better paying clientele than I’ve ever had before. The Freelancer’s Guide to Finding Clients will show you how to do it too.

If cold calling seems a bit, well, cold, the Guide also covers warm calling. That’s reaching out to people you already know. Some of them might need your freelancing talents. And you’ll never know how many of them do unless you ask them, right? This Guide will show you how to do it.
