One of the customers i got last year, i was able to win him over with just two things. First and foremost my price was way cheaper than what others usually charged him and my designs where quality designs. How did you win yours?
How did you win over your First customer?

I got my first client by referral. I offered my new client free trial service. If s(he) was satisfied with my translation, s(he) gave me the job.
Winning a client may be achieved by a mix of variables such as delivering a high-quality service or product, offering competitive price, maintaining effective communication, understanding consumer demands, and establishing trust. Offering a terrific bargain, a free trial, a demo, or any other comparable method will help you attract your first customer. Then, to keep customers coming back, maintain the quality of your service and create a long-term connection with them.
It takes a lot of effort to win over my first two customers because I had to convince him using different means
I remember the very first customer I ever got, I was able to win them over because I offered a small gig that would allow them to try my service and it would only cost them a little. This allowed them to see my work and decide from that if they wanted to hire me again. I as I always do, ensured that my best work was done and that I completed the order in a timely manner because of that they were happy and kept me on as a regular and that gave me a regular customer.
It is true that brand awareness is important in generating customers.
The most interesting answer to this question came when I started my offline business supplying computer systems and software for auto dealers to calculate, negotiate and print documentation for every sale they made. Back then, a very large protion of their profits came from selling financing and credit life insurance as an add-on and every dealership had trained F&I agents as the final person the customer faced. They were experts at closing sales and packing the profit with these computers. It was so profitable, that the agencies that supplied these policies would pay for the computer systems (often 4 to 6 workstations) if they would only sell their F&I Policies. How I got my first sale was one of these agents tracked me down and begged me to write the software and supply the systems exclusivly for him, which I did for the next 45 years.
bravo! You really make a killing from the deal.

Yeah, once you begin to treat your customers nicely, it is even possible to ask them about their family members and their well-being. I think these are some of the strategies of getting customers.
This is why it is very important for you to always be involved in extensive marketing when your business is new because it is the only way you can be able to get new customers.
