Hey bhw,
I am pretty good at editing YouTube videos, creating engaging posts, growing TikTok/Instagram/Facebook pages, I can edit podcasts and a lot of other thinks. And I am really good at this.. I know that there are many people that are searching for someone like me, but I can find them.

What is an easy way to find clients?

:) maybe you can give us some review copy , we see and review your work.
 
Why dont you build a community around what you do. You could create a facebook group around what you do and pitch from there

Firstly it's against the rules to try selling here like this so that won't get you far. If you want to sell on BHW you'll need to start a BST or watch the HAF section for people looking for editing.

Assuming you're looking for an actual answer then UpWork is probably your best bet. Fiverr and outreach is full of competition for SMM so it's not going to be an easy answer.
 
Create your own website where you showcase your work , that combined with marketing on social media and forums will do the trick.

Hi. From what I see you can grow accounts . With this skill alone you can make a great living. Just for inspiration you can check what another bhw member did using pinterest accounts to make money: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/is-socialgrowth-social-legit-i-see-a-few-ads-with-them.1266001/#post-13629050

I tried Fiverr, I got 4 sales within 2 days and all 5 star reviews and than nothing... for a week now. I am changing the description and I am working on a Gig video so I can get more impressions.

I didn’t try Upwork, I will try it today. Thanks!!
 
Reach out to them directly and avoid Freelancing portals like Fiverr. For instance, LinkedIn or mail lists.
 
Be active on all freelance websites.

You can start your youtube channel and show your skills with link to your fiverr gig.

Finding clients, marketing and sales *is* the core of what someone running their own business does.

If you can't do this, and you have skills, then your best bet is looking for a job using your skills. Why don't you apply to some digital marketing agencies? If you can do lots of things then you are valuable.

If your skill is sales/marketing, then business is for you. Or if that's something you would enjoy and are willing to learn.
 
You need to reach out to the customers yourself and do it actively ALL the time.

Don't wait for people to come and reach out to you, because it won't work that way. Not in 2020, because there are literally millions of different "service providers" trying to make it online.

I'm saying this simply because I was in your exact situation for a looong time. Now, I do shit differently. Online or offline, I offer my services everywhere I go. I just say something like: "I do [this, that, etc.]. If you ever need something, hit me up anytime. 20% percent off for you because I like you." And this stuff works.

Same stuff online. Post the stuff you do literally everywhere. Go for more followers, more exposure. If that's an option, boost whatever you post. For example, on Fiverr, don't be afraid to use their new Promoted Gigs option.

Put simply, you just need to do more self-promotion than others and be more shameless about it. Make this your hustle, and once the workload becomes too much for you, outsource. This is how you "make it".
