Wow, you’re an overachiever, Luke!

I’ll be writing about making repeat sales (or in our case, projects) in FreelanceFolder.com – watch out for it!

Great ideas Alexis. I’ll be doing points 1,2,4,7,9. I’m also starting a blog, but not to get clients for my freelancing.

One that you might’ve missed, is making repeat sales. Similar, but slightly different to upselling.

I’m not sure if this applies to writers so much, but for web developers, there are always opportunities to add features or content to client’s websites. Sometimes, just identifying an opportunity for the client and recommending it to them is all it takes. And since you have the client’s trust already, there’s not much selling cost involved.

I would say that once you’ve got an established client base, identifying opportunities within that can be more profitable than looking for new clients.

1. So far so good with this one.

2.Yeah that does have me kinda nervous, I want to but….

3.SEO is what I love, but the WordPress Install and Customize is what usually gets me to upsell the SEO service. Good here.

4. See number 3

5. I’m pretty targeted, local small biz without or who need a better online presence. Check.

6. This is one of the biggest points IMO, education never or should stop.

7. Very much need to work on.

8. I’ll try, when I first got into affiliate marketing, blogging wasnt a problem, now it’s a little more challenging because of time. If I can do it at least 3 times a month I’ll be happy.

9. I’ve been thinking about doing some niche affiliate marketing on the side, extra money wouldn’t hurt at all.

10. Yeah your preaching to the choir, one of my top goals in 2010 and on for that matter.

Very, very good list Alexis, I have some things to work on. Happy New Years to you and yours.
