What You Should Offer to Your Client as a Freelancer

[Jasz]

When you're a freelancer, one of the most important things you can do is to your client and give them more. If you're an expert in your field, you can help them solve problems that they didn't even know they had.

This is especially true if they have a larger company or organization that they work with directly. It's easy for a large company to hire a new employee and train him or her on how things work. But what if they just need someone to make one simple change?

In this case, it could be more cost-effective for the client to hire someone who already knows how the system works rather than hiring an entirely new employee who doesn't already have any experience with the system.

If you're not sure how to provide value to your existing clients, here are some tips:

1. Be a valuable resource to your clients.

2. Provide timely and accurate information.

3. Identify opportunities for growth and improvement by looking at the bigger picture of your client's business, industry and market sector.

4. Deliver on time, every time, with precision and quality.

5. If you have a good relationship with your clients, they will come back for more of your services in the future.

If you want your one-time client to become a long-term client, you will have to offer more value with your services and products. When your clients are long-time clients, you will never have any dearth of work and you don't even have to continue working with the freelancing sites and incur a huge cut on your pay rate. Giving value to your work means you are giving more. For example, if you are hired to write 1000 words article, you can write 1100 words for the same pay rate, or you can offer your service for $9 instead of your standard rate of $10. When the client gets more than what he paid for, he will consider hiring you again. The second most important point is to always deliver your work on time if possible deliver as soon as possible. When your turnaround time is fast, the client will consider hiring you again.
