You'll get the clients Lily, it just takes time
You're so motivated and you have such great energy. Keep putting yourself out there, it will come.
All of my clients tell me what they need generally, too, which is great...but the things I'm aiming for here are the things they don't yet *realize* they need, or could benefit from. Or things that have crossed their mind but haven't come out in conversation yet.
An example I guess would be newsletters - I discovered Vertical Response and realized it was great for creating custom designed newsletter templates, so I just sent around a little email letting everyone know it was available, that I was familiar with it, and how it worked (rather, how I could manage it for them), how much it would cost them to use VR and my services respectfully...and from that I now have three clients who need newsletters once or twice every month, plus the work of having designed them in the first place
I think of it as 'internal' marketing...marketing your own expanding services and knowledge to existing clients.
So those few questions also just kind of help get them thinking creatively as well...
