Short advice from a creator to get clients: produce as many short-form videos (reels) as possible, send those finished pieces to prospective brands as proof of work (offer a low-cost test package if needed), use that content to build trust, then upsell to monthly/full-price packages. The speaker emphasizes that a bit of upfront work converts skeptical prospects into paying clients.
I would max, I would, I would maximize the amount of reels you can get out of it. And then send those pieces to other brands if you're not already working with them. Show them what you can do, start a conversation and then do the same thing. Do a test package if you need to and then close them on the monthly. It's just like it's so easy to close somebody when they, you've built the trust, you've already sent them the stuff. And yes, like, it's a little bit of upfront work in the beginning, but when you're just getting started, like, that is the best way to get clients. It really is. Because it's like, I don't trust you. I don't know who you are. You create this content for me and you crush it. I'm like, oh my God, this is amazing. Now I feel like I owe you and then you can upsell me to your full price packages.
