Слайд 3Why Use Social Media?
Increase brand recognition
When you’re a freelancer, your

name is your brand recognition. By giving potential clients more doors to access you, you increase the likelihood of them finding your work.
Increase brand loyalty
Social media only works when it’s a conversation instead of a one-way broadcast. A Texas Tech study showed brands that engaged enjoyed a higher rate of loyalty.
More opportunities to get business

Слайд 4Why Use Social Media?
Establishing authority
Establish yourself as an expert in whatever

area of communications you specialize in. Share the knowledge, but don’t give away the product.
Increase inbound traffic
If your website is your main marketing tool (and it should be as a freelancer), almost all of your posts need to push back to your site.
More affordable marketing costs
Compared to traditional marketing offerings (newspapers, magazines, radio, television, etc.) social media is a much more affordable option.

Слайд 15How to Get Started
Be a resource, not a sales pitch
People do

business with people they know, trust, and like. The old idea of how the sales pitch works is fading away.
Establish yourself as a source of knowledge in your field, and people will be attracted to your online presence.

Слайд 16How to Get Started
Find your voice and sell with it
Find what

it is about your work that sets you apart.
Don’t just copy what others are doing.
Your voice is your brand.

Слайд 17How to Get Started
Optimize Your Social Profiles
Don’t leave your profiles blank.

Make sure you’re utilizing all areas of the Facebook page, Twitter profile, etc.

Слайд 18How to Get Started
Make it Easy to Get Ahold of You
You

want to turn these efforts into business, so make sure people who want to hire you actually know how to get ahold of you.

Слайд 19How to Get Started
You Don’t Need the Newest Tech
You don’t have

to have the newest technology to get a dedicated following. If you want people to engage, you don’t have to have tens of thousands of dollars of equipment. Your camera does great, what matters is creating quality contact.

Слайд 20How to Get Started
Follow the Rules and Be Patient
Social media, just

like any other marketing effort, takes time to build up a dedicated base. Make sure you’re not taking short cuts, and you’re being patient.
Followers will come as you establish your brand your voice.

Слайд 21Putting it into Practice
Create your own web page or blog –

you need an online home for your portfolio.
Create a Facebook page for your freelance business and invite family, friends, and former/current clients to like it and share it.
Twitter – Listen (err… read) for the first week or so. Learn what people are talking about, how and when they engage.

Слайд 22Putting it into Practice
Get. On. LinkedIn.
Get involved with freelancer groups. Engaged

in conversations. Connect with companies you want to work with
Use the job boards to see who’s hiring for what. These are great times to pitch your services in the stead of a new employee.

Слайд 30What Not to Do
Don’t attack potential, current, and former clients, customers

and employees.
A local Dodge City restaurant has TWICE held profanity-laden angry exchanges with customers and former employees
One told a customer to never come back because she was a b****
Second one (about a year later) accused a former employee of theft
Both stayed up for several days before the owner took them down.
