Why is it So difficult find Clients?

If you're not getting the bids on the good projects because you lack reputation, consider doing projects for cheap in exchange for more reviews or samples. When I started out doing freelance web design back in the day, I did pro bono work for nonprofits and then used that as a sample to get actual work.

It also depends on what kind of process applied to search clients.

There are many reasons behind it-
1. cost- some work at very low budget price
2. kind of marketing methods
SEO
SMM
PPC
Traditional
3. Clients comes but unable to satisfy the solutions
Well to get an client is very tough process. The most important is to build reputation via social media and digital marketing s well as traditional marketing services.

6 Ways to Get Even the Most Difficult Clients on Board

1. Stand your ground.
2. Show the full process...
3. Leverage what you know.
4. Use data.
5. Make a personal visit.
6. Provide personal endorsements.

Lot of automation in this space now like LogoJoy. Also, Fiverr and Upwork have created a complete race to the bottom, so there's no real money left here.

Try B2B style marketing.

Market to businesses around you and even offer free sample work on how you can improve thier current design, and such.

Just gotta sell yourself. Not your service

As @underachieved said try the contacting the businesses directly some may reply some may not but keep trying

If I am allowed to add my grain of salt, I would say finding clients is the key to any business success, the main key. You can take care of all other things needed to run a business, but if you do not know how to find clients, the business can't thrive. The best people are so good at finding new clients, they constantly grow the business, and that growth is due to sales. Imo this is the number skill to have.

Yes, you must have a general understanding of sales, we're you build and maintain business relationships.

Learn to speak for your yourself. And be confident.

Read some books on the topic, take a look at Grant Cordone. Yes the man is a freaking tool, but I do approve of his methods. That man can sell.

Try to find clients on your own and build connections. People bring People you know! If you get enough clients on your own, you will decide to leave the freelancing websites, because probably you will not have time to waste on cheap projects there. People still prefer to pay someone they know, or just someone they have met rather than paying someone behind the screen they do not know who they are.

Have a site for your own service and direct customers to it. Think of it as a business, not just freelancing jobs. If you keep pushing it, it will work at some point

This. Create your own pipeline.

Strategize before you visit and know what you want to design or redesign. Make your initial contact with the prospect but don't show up to solve a problem, just try to meet and greet, state your purpose, and secure a second appointment. While on your first visit, identify other penetration opportunities by looking around and asking open ended questions using TED (tell me, explain to me, describe).

It's easy as fuck, honestly. You're selling a relatively tailored product. So what you're looking for is input. Sometimes that input will come in the form of an objection but objections are a good thing. They're the prospects way of revealing why they want you and why you're valuable.

Wrong.

There's one thing they don't carry... YOU!

Your consultative value is why they want to buy from you over the other guys.

I suggest you make yourself availalble thorugh as many outlets as you can manage. I found my artist though fiver. I spent a good amount of time browsing the different sample arts available down multiple avenues until I found an artist whose style I liked and fit my desired look. Art is a labor of love, so sometimes you'll have to make things just to get noticed, and then you can focus on the selling. But seriously getting your work seen is the first big hurdle, so make sure your sample work is best reflective of your style and your skills. Good luck out there.
