what can you do? is there a way to attract clients and stay shy or private?<\/p>\n
the answer is maybe. in any case, a mind shift needs to happen.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
you might be surprised to hear that i am extremely introverted (a nicer way to say i am shy). and i am fairly private, but only with certain things. yet i have hundreds of thousands of followers and thousands of customers.<\/p>\n
so here are some random thoughts about how i handle and cope with \u201cputting myself out there.\u201d<\/p>\n
\ni hate being a best-kept secret. <\/strong>many of you are \u201cbest-kept secrets.\u201d this does no one any good. what\u2019s worse is people who are a bit more extroverted will end up helping your clients even if they are not as good as you. and that should make you mad enough to get a little braver.<\/li>\ni hate it every time i have to push the send button to send that email to thousands of people. <\/strong>yes, it scares me every time i send an email to masses of people. i\u2019ve learned many things from having many followers; namely, you can\u2019t please everyone. and if you are pleasing all of your clients, you are either too cheap, vastly underutilized or not marketing hard enough. in all cases, you are definitely leaving money on the table. you haven\u2019t really become an entrepreneur if you haven\u2019t received negative criticism.<\/li>\nam i selfish? <\/strong>i could make a case for me being selfish when i do not put myself out there because then i am hiding my skills from people who could really use my help. i don\u2019t want to be selfish. i want to help as many people as i can. so, therefore, i need to put myself out there.<\/li>\ni can control what i keep private. <\/strong>i choose to keep my religion and politics private. that way, no one can judge me for those things. i\u2019m fine if you want to use those in your own marketing. just know in some cases, it will limit your clientele.<\/li>\nit\u2019s not bragging if it\u2019s a fact.<\/strong> you should be proud of your experience, education, certifications and memberships. put those out there to build your credibility. better yet, get others, like your clients, to brag for you.<\/li>\ni used to be afraid of asking for testimonials.<\/strong> i have a feeling that many accounting professionals are somewhat afraid of their clients (or maybe simply people in general \u2013 it\u2019s more common than you might think). it could be the lack of control over what they think or when they will pay you. otherwise, why are so many of you reluctant to ask for testimonials? please do ask your clients for testimonials. and display them prominently. you might be afraid of their words, but most of them will think you walk on water. even if they don\u2019t, you will be able to take care of any issues that arise so you can correct the problem and keep the client happy. plus, you might get valuable feedback that will allow you to become even better at what you do.<\/li>\nget your ego out of the way.<\/strong> there are a lot of ways to do this, but for me, what works best is to put myself in the shoes of my clients. when i focus on others, i don\u2019t focus on myself. that gets me out of the way of myself! after all, there are 7 billion of us. it\u2019s not like the world is going to suddenly start looking at you.<\/li>\nbut what if i get too many leads?<\/strong> a lot of you use this as an excuse! if you get too many leads, you can pick and choose your clientele. i can\u2019t think of a better world. the top movie stars like it; why wouldn\u2019t you? you can also share them with your peers and friends. you can even sell them and keep a finder\u2019s fee. but really, when i hear this excuse, i think there must be something else that they are afraid of.<\/li>\nso what are you really afraid of?<\/strong> only you will know for sure. it could be success itself. one powerful exercise is to ask yourself what the worst outcome would be if that fear were to come true. keep asking the question until you drill down to get to the root of the fear. only when you can get past the fear of putting yourself out there will you be able to become successful at marketing so you can earn the level of revenue you desire.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"are you afraid to put yourself out there?<\/strong><\/p>\nby sandi leyva<\/i> \nthe complete guide to marketing for tax & accounting firms<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1345,"featured_media":53032,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2271,3120,3002,2295],"tags":[79],"class_list":["post-105852","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-marketing","category-pro-member-exclusive","category-special","category-solo","tag-marketing"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nnine thoughts on self-marketing for the introvert - 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间<\/title>\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\t \n\t \n\t \n \n \n \n \n \n\t \n\t \n\t \n
