Assalam o alaikum, so in today's session we'll talk about, how you can get orders using social media

this video is going to be so important, especially for newbies or if you struggle

in a freelance career, or if you are in any business, if you struggles

then use this technique. Like if i recommend this to a new person, then'll say

before joining any freelance market place, first go to the social media and create your accounts

and practice to find the client on social media, let me give you an example regarding this

let me ask a question, does fiver has more traffic then facebook?

obviously, facebook has a huge traffic

now if you're using facebook as a seller

then the buyer is also using facebook

go to the facebook and join different groups

you can find different groups there, just for example, just like my group

different freelancers are working there

so whenever anyone faces any issues, they post it there

different freelancers comment their, and tries to give the solution

now what happens due to this? this helps you to create a community

and secondly, you can find buyer in these types of groups

so if you search on facebook, wordpress developer

so the people who've mentioned this keyword in their profile and groups will be visible to you

then check them out one by one and join them

you'll be graphic designer,a digital marketer or anything else join these groups

follow those pages, go to those profiles, send them requests and have a talk with them

and the best technique is to join the freelance groups

reason is, there's already so many freelancers having orders in quantity

and they hire different freelancers to out source these orders

and what happens there,fiverr takes 20% of the budget initially

so they want to find a small freelancer, who can deliver them order in less price

As soon as they post the job, you can comment below,

But there is a lot of spam in the comments, he just select any individual

but what you can do , send him a request, inbox him directly

make friendship with him, build a relationship with him

even you didn't got that job he posted

but if you somehow manage to build relation with him, atleast you know this is a man getting orders

and he needs outsourcing

now you've made a relation with him, now what will be the benefits?

number 1, if you face any issue, you can contact him

you can ask him, that I am facing this issue, will you help me?

if you face any problem or difficulty, he can guide you as well

number 3, if he ever needs outsourcing, and you've built a good relation with him

then he'd not outsource anyone else, he'd give it to you,so like this you'll get initial review

so like this, you can get so many benefits from him

So besides this, don't stuck to them only, find your clients too

People are told to share their gig in other social media platforms

I also say share it in platforms, but this method of sharing is totally wronge

that you've created a simple post, pasted the link in the post, and shared it

you've to sell your service, who are the viewers of your post? your parents? your relatives?

your neighbour? Are they going to buy your service? Ask this question to yourself once

As I am promoting this service, do they really know what this service is?

will they buy this service or not? then you'll get the answere, they are not going to buy it

So promote your service, in the area or groups where it is demanding

where people talk about your service, where people post their jobs and where people bid

other freelancers will be also there,and the best aspect is you'll learn many things

if you'll face any issue, then make a community, or simply make a whatsapp group

take their number create a whatsapp group

if you ever need to outsource, or if you want anyone's help, post your problem in that group

help others too, this'll increase your experience

If you know someone who's in trouble, and you can help him, then definitly you should provide him the solution

you'll also learn something from him, your experience level will increase

you'll gain experience by helping others,

you'll come to know that such problem also exists,if you help him,by the time you'll in trouble he'll help you too

so build a community like this, use linkedIn, make an attractive profile there

linkedIn is not used for uploading wedding and tour pictures

LinkedIn is not used for this purpose, it's a platform for big companies that can hire you directly

So make a professional linkedIn profile,just like your fiverr upwork profile,where you uploaded a professional image

where you have a professional description,you enlisted your education history and your experiences

mention everything on linkedin too, keep yourself active there

you can find different groups on linked in, join them

you can get sales from there as well,

so use Facebook and linkedin, you can get high sales from here

personally I recommend new freelancers to use social media

suppose if, no fiverr , no upwork even no freelancer market place is left

and you are told that freelancing is your business, how'll you do it then?

if you're dependent on these platforms, then lets suppose

you're a top rated seller on fiverr and upwork too or anywhere else

you made a good profile, but your account was suspended for any reason

What will you do to them? nothing

but if you know marketing, and you know you can make your claints

even if don't get a single order from fiverr, i'll make my own clients

then you'll become a good freelancer, and then you can work for a longterm

if you are dependent on the sales of a platform

then soon you'll fail

you're dependent on that account, if it's gone, means all my efforts gone

don't do such mistake, use Facebook linkedIn

and make your clients from their and don't deal them privately, ask them to place order on your profile

your reviews will boost up

your profile will flourish even you'll give 20% to the platform

but the biggest advantage will be

that if you managed 10 clients towards fiverr, and 20% was taken by the fiverr

but you'll find a client, who'll fulfill everything

and you'll start getting profit

I am not talking about a single client, you'll find others too

you made a client on social media, derived it to fiverr, upwork or any platform

to that profile, ask him to place an order , took reviews

if you use this technique and use social media correctly then your orders

will not finish inshaAllah
