1. Be visible.
People have to be able to find you, but first they need to know you exist. Make it easy for your prospective clients to know about you and what you have to offer.
2. Don´t wait for others to open the right doors for you.
There´s really never a good time to do anything. You just need to do it without judging yourself or over-preparing.
3. Take action.
Do something on a daily basis that will get people to know you.
4. Give valuable information.
Collaborate with colleagues, offer information to others, do
what you can to help others be successful. It all comes back to you. It truly does.
5. Market yourself without hard-selling.
There´s a difference between promotion for self-serving purposes and adding value to someone´s life.
6. Open up your space.
Creative flow cannot happen when you´re blocked for time, physical space, money, or other entanglements. Unclutter your life. Eliminate the non-essentials. Let go of the excuses.
7. Work with others for creative ideas.
Get all the ideas you can to move forward and then take
responsibility and move.
8. Give your efforts time to develop.
Allow yourself at least 90 days before you change course.
People don´t always respond immediately. If it´s not working by that time, modify what you are doing. Be careful to modify only one aspect of your plan at a time, otherwise you won´t know what it was that actually worked for you.
9. Follow up.
Don´t assume people will call you. Call them. Call them often enough to get noticed without being a pest. Always offer something of value to them when you call.
10. Let go of the outcome!
Put yourself out there and then let it go. No fretting. No attachment. Just keep moving forward.
