Hi all 
I've recently started up a freelance graphic design business in Devon, but I'm really struggling to find clients. I have been really pushing Instagram to a good amount of success, and I'm doing my best with Facebook but with less success.
I've avoided cold calls and emails up to this point because I have no idea how to do them effectively. Is this stupid? Should I be doing them as part of an effective marketing strategy?
I'd be really interested in how you all got your first clients if anyone would be willing to share? Thanks!
