Agorum offers a streamlined alternative to platforms like Thumbtack, Fiverr, and TaskRabbit, giving you the tools to connect with clients for your creative services.
While Agorum makes finding clients easier, maximizing your booking potential comes down to three things: the quality of your portfolio, how you describe your services, and offering relevant deliverables.
Let’s break down what clients are looking for, the responsibilities of creatives on Agorum, and practical tips to help you succeed.
When clients browse Agorum, they’re usually asking these five critical questions:
1. Professionalism
Clients want to know they can rely on you. They’re asking themselves: Will this photographer or DJ show up on time and meet expectations with professionalism?
2. Competence
Your skill level matters. Clients need reassurance that you have the technical ability to deliver high-quality work.
3. Style
A strong personal style is essential. Clients want a photographer whose aesthetic aligns with their vision or a DJ who can set the right vibe for their event.
4. Availability
Event timing and location are top priorities. Clients need to confirm that you’re available on their chosen date and willing to work at their location.
5. Pricing
Clients want transparent pricing. They’re looking for services that are fairly priced and meet their budget.
To put it simply, clients are busy planning their events, and they value platforms where they can book with trust and confidence. The more easily you meet their expectations in these five areas, the higher your chances of getting booked.
Clients want to feel confident that they’re hiring someone who understands their needs and will deliver an experience they’re excited about.
Here’s what they’re looking for:
Putting yourself in their shoes helps. Many clients may not be familiar with hiring creatives for their events, so they rely on what they see and read in your profile. Make it easy for them to feel like they’re making the right choice.
1. Portfolio Organization
Your portfolio is your calling card. An organized, easy-to-navigate portfolio helps clients find the exact style or example they’re envisioning. Aim for clarity in your presentation.
2. Communication Delays
Rapid responses build trust. Avoid lag in communication, and leverage Agorum’s chat feature to respond quickly and set clear expectations around availability and pricing.
3. Stylistic Clarity
Clients want a clear vision of what to expect. If your strengths lie in a particular style or genre, make that clear in your profile description. Help clients see you as the best fit for their event by setting realistic expectations from the start.
Understanding what clients need is step one. Here’s how you can go above and beyond:
By meeting these client expectations and demonstrating reliability, you’ll increase your chances of connecting with the right clients on Agorum.
