How to Build a Client Base for a New Business
1Know your target groups. Who would be interested in your services? Focus on organizations whose membership belong to that group.
2
Offer to do demonstrations at meetings. Answer questions. Pass out fliers describing your service and its benefits. Be sure to put your name, address and phone number on it, so future clients know where to find you.
3
Be outgoing! Socialize. Strike up conversations with people at the supermarket or sporting events. You never know who you'll meet. Always carry business cards to hand out.
4
Offer incentives. Give discounts on a weekly basis or to certain groups. Hand out VIP cards or gift cards with your logo on them.
5
Enlist your friends and family. Have them wear t-shirts with your logo on them. Give them fliers or brochures to hang up on the bulletin boards at their office or school.
