Aks HN:I'm searching for new clients for a WEB-Dev Company
2 points by koprivarov 4108 days ago
Hello, I started working in a WEB-Development company as an account manager. To be honest I don't have experience in this field. My mission is to find clients for the company but I'm stuck. I will be happy if you lead me to some places or give me advice how to find and interact with new customers. Thanks in advance, Koprivarov

I would recommend visiting local businesses who do not currently have a web presence or have a very bad portal.

Bring along some samples of work and show them what your firm is able to do. Perhaps client testamonials or stats showing how it will ultimately benefit them.

Thank you kifler. This is one of the steps I have planed. I hope to find customers abroad because the market here isn't quite good.
In addition to kifler's comments, don't forget to service your existing clients. Repeat business is some of the easiest money you'll make. The client is already sold on you, you just need to continue to take care of them and upsell where applicable.

Also, you can't beat a referral from a trusted friend or colleague. Perhaps offer your existing clients x% off their next invoice for any success referrals, or figure out some similar affiliate scheme.

The previous customers had their job done and of course I keep in touch with them but their projects ware big and now they are focused on marketing etc. Probably won't be making any new projects soon. Thank you KhalPanda
