Never just sit back and wait for success. Be proactive. Figure out what action you need to take, and go out there and make it happen.

Also, a bit of wisdom: Don’t just plaster your links on social media. That’s not likely to return any results – unless the people you are connected to are also the very people that need your services. Posting links that only your friends see on social media is generally wasted action. Target your potential customers. They are the only people that will purchase from you an make your gig successful.

Figure out who your target customers are, do some research to determine where those customers are located (online and off), and then go to those places, and tell those customers about your services. How you choose to tell them is what we refer to as marketing, and there are hundreds of ways that you can target your message to your desired customers. You will, however, have to do the research to figure out what works best for you, and then infuse creativity into the strategy you choose to take.

As much as I would like to help you, you’re going to have to figure out your marketing strategy on your own. Your strategy, your target customers, and what they are likely to relate to the most are not the same for everyone else. Your marketing choices will have to be as unique as you and your services are. Your business is your own. Research and self-analysis is required.

If you need creative marketing ideas, you can do some searching online, and hundreds of ideas are available out there to inspire you.
