People will hire you to SOLVE A PROBLEM. Find businesses/clients that have a problem that you can solve.

Well it looks like you need to hit the pavement and do a little cold calling. If you have been dry for three months you might want to reconsider the services you are offering and the price you charge. You need to set yourself apart from your competition and offer your clients something extra that no one else offers. And offer it for free the first year or so. Getting started is always the hardest time, but you have to show prospective clients a reason to use you.

the following is an celebration that people ought to not imagine of. a chum of mine runs a million of three dry cleansing shops in a small city. The business enterprise is nicely worth a touch over $12 million. That takes into consideration the a lot they are on, the homes and the machines in the shop. they don't look to be wealthy with the help of any ability. They worker type of 30 people. yet even as his moms and dads die the authorities will be entitled to 40 5-fifty 5% of the cost of the business enterprise. they don't have that type of money accessible to pay the tax. So wager what is going to ensue. they are going to ought to close a minimum of one shop and lay off 10 people. How will that income the economic equipment? Oh, that's proper. which will positioned extra people on the unemployment and welfare making them extra effortless to regulate.

Maybe you have already tried this, but what about offering your services free for a period of time?
For example, you agree to manage their property free for three to six months with no obligation on either of your parts to continue the relationship. But, if they like you, they keep you and you make money after your free period is up. In the least you will get a few references, but ideally you will do such a great job they won't think about going back to their old property management firm, and they may even send you referrals. ;o)
