The first things to think about if you're looking to showcase your work through client testimonials:

1. How will you get them? 🤔
You could try automated routes like LinkedIn, a review collecting service, or automated emails. If you'd prefer a more DIY approach you could email clients directly or create a survey

2. Exchanging reviews 🥰
Contacting people in your network and asking them to exchange testimonials is a great way to build up a body of reviews, especially if you’re new to freelancing and don’t have many clients yet. Use LinkedIn for this!

3. Decide where you want to show your reviews 💻
On you socials, website, or through a review service such as Trustpilot or Feefo

Get started! The more reviews you get, the more people will trust your services...https://bit.ly/3Avyraq
