Episode 281: AMA – How to Market Your Services on Social Media and Find the Right Contacts

Welcome to the sixth and last episode of this year’s AMA. I do these episodes occasionally, and I love your questions, so thank you to all of you who submitted your question. If you have a question you would like answered, please reach out to me.

Today I will be talking about marketing our translation services on social media (LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook), and give you some tips on how to find the right person to reach out to.

I do have a whole course course and a workshop on how to market yourself online, using your website and social media. Social media is also a great tool to attract ideal clients to your platform and your services. The most important ones I have found are LinkedIn and Twitter. But this can vary depending on where your target clients are most active. Look at which social media tools your ideal client is using and focus on 1 or 2 of those.

Finding and connecting with prospects and clients on social media can sometimes be hard. However, this becomes much easier when you know WHO you are trying to market to online. Focus on really getting to know your ideal client. That makes it easier to find them, follow them, learn about them, and connect with them online.
