If you picked "getting projects you love," you're not alone! Colleen Sheehan, one of our talented freelance designers, felt the same way. She shared some tips to break free from taking just any project that comes your way in one of our blog posts. Here’s the cliffnotes📝: ✅ Build the foundation: Identify your ideal target audience and preferences. Then, find the right platform to let your potential clients know about you. For Colleen, that’s Reedsy. 👀 See what authors see: Explore the marketplace the way an author does to see what their journey on the site looks like and make your profile appealing to your desired clients. 💡 Pro tip: Use a tagline to specify who you want to work with and your specialization. This is not a place to be vague or clever (unless you have a lot of faith in your copywriting skills). 💼 Client focus: Highlight what you can do for the client and what they can expect to receive if they hire you in your profile. 💫 Consistency is key: Keep the rest of your profile content clear and consistent. If it doesn’t help you whittle down your potential pool of people and excite your perfect clients, then don’t include it. 🔖 Reinforce in offers: Use templated responses that align with your profile's theme. Your offer should reinforce your specialties and go into more detail about how you’ll help them achieve what you promised in your profile overview. 👉 Read more in-depth about Collen’s experience and how she executes these tips with examples! - https://lnkd.in/gxk8JRDe 👉 Want to hire Colleen for your next book project? - https://lnkd.in/gkA5pmed 👬 Want to join Colleen and our incredible roster of publishing professionals on Reedsy?
