Ask HN: Freelancers, how do you successfully expand to new markets?

2 pointsby ax0arabout 1 year ago
As a freelancer, I&#x27;ve worked on 100+ projects, including some for billion dollar US companies through an agency. Those clients were very impressed with my work.<p>I&#x27;m now looking to build my own client base in the US market. I have the skills and expertise, as evidenced by my track record.<p>What strategies have worked for you to land new clients in a different market, leveraging past successful projects? I&#x27;m interested in tips for marketing, lead generation, networking, or any other approaches that could help freelancers make this transition effectively.

Not to take your candies off - wish you very best and hope you make it.<p>&quot;through an agency&quot; - is completely different situation than on your own from buyer perspective.<p>&gt; Those clients were very impressed with my work.<p>Ask them to hire you directly as freelancer or ask them to refer (you can also optionally compensate for referral) you some work. Easy to make and effective.<p>Good luck
