Freelancers send out hundreds of letters of introduction or queries, and most rarely hear back from potential clients. Today, guest Leslie Lang provides her insights on how you can turn that no reply into a paying client. Drawing on her experience, Leslie shares that the secret often lies not in the initial contact, but in the persistent follow-ups. It's not about being ignored; it's about understanding that people get busy, and your message might get lost in the shuffle. It's time to equip yourself with the Boss Responses you need to master follow-ups and sign clients!
