If I had to close 10 new customers next week, I would prioritize these 3 tactics: 1. 𝐀𝐬𝐤 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 🤝. Your customers have positive experiences with you. I bet you will get at least 5 warm intros if you send 50 emails to your existing customers. (+ 📱 phonebook hack: scroll through your contacts and find potential leads) 2. 𝐔𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚 🔊. Go where the audience is. Post case studies on social media and communities (groups) relevant to your target audience. You should get at least 3 qualified leads per a great case study. No case studies? Create a no-brainer foot-in-the-door offer or pitch free audits. 3. 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐟 50 𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐬 📋 and reach out to them. Do not overthink how - do the research, pitch how you can help, attach an analysis or a case study if they are interested in working with you, and sign new clients. This is what I would do. What would you do? Let me know in the comments if you have any questions.  Let’s finish 2024 strong 🎯

Great one Maja Voje. spot on tactics. I especially love the emphasis on asking for recommendations, leveraging existing relationships can be such a game changer. And using social media to share case studies or no-brainer offers is a fantastic way to build credibility and generate leads quickly. Simple, but incredibly effective strategies! Thanks for sharing these actionable insights. Quick question: When you’re reaching out to your target companies, do you find personalized video messages/ written emails or what usually work better in getting a response? Curious to hear your thoughts!

Yes, ask for recommendations and referrals! 91% of customer say they're willing to make them, yet only 11% of sellers ever bother asking for them. Worst that happens if you ask is you get a no. Just send them this template: "Hey {name}, any chance you know any other {role} that would see value in what we do at {company}? Happy to send you a forwardable note if you know anyone I should be talking to, appreciate it!"

I could only go for the 3rd option. I am still business shy, so that makes me think like: "how will they see my email" - will it be laughed at & ignored? No matter if I work in a field that's having a buzz these days, it is still hard to get through.

I’d add one more: leverage personalized video pitches. A quick, tailored video can grab attention and show value. Plus, it helps you stand out and lets them feel your vibe—which, honestly, has won me a few clients too! 😎✨

For finding new leads, I love a pro-active and one-on-one approach for those small numbers. The easiest way is your own network for direct leads or intros to relevant leads. Don't be afraid to ask. The next is to see who actively are writing about having this problem on social media / fora. People who read a certain book and said it's great, left reviews on a competitor etc. Search for those! They're as warm as you can get them - it takes a bit of smart searching finding the person and their details, but it's worth it. Third is where an expert is writing about how to tackle a problem they face, and they interact with it. Qualified post likers/commenters.

Great list! If you are a founder and get people to connect with you after posting case studies, helpful content, etc., just sharing what you are working on and why you care is often more than enough.

The Core strategy for early customer acquisition! For 2) Go where the audience is. And this means that it is not necessarily on LinkedIn or Twitter. But identify the most relevant social platform(s) for your target audience and focus tons of efforts there.

It's hard to believe but when I joined Andrew Hancock I discovered that he has been operating his business for 10+ years without a website. All the business came from happy returning customers and referrals without even asking for them. Happy customers are the best strategy to scale.
