I literally saw this at the PERFECT time! I JUST launched my SMM company a few days ago and got my first client but was wondering how I can put together a portfolio with only my own growth as an example. Thank you! Also, just bought all your templates (& joined your community) and it’s the BIGGEST help! Thank you so much for everything! 💚

[@sugarpunchmarketing]

Talk about perfect timing! 💖 Congrats on launching your company and getting your first client! I have a video on onboarding clients that you might like also, but it sounds like you're already ahead of me by joining the community and grabbing the templates! Happy to have you here! 😊

Really helpful

[@hellenarboledaquintero9210]

Hello, thanks for all your videos, they are very helpful for me as a beginner. I have a question, can the portfolio be attached to the service catalogue?

[@sugarpunchmarketing]

Yes, it can! You can either stick it at the end, or have a link inside your services document that opens up separately to the portfolio.

What is the best website builder/place to build a client portfolio

[@claymationmedia6961]

I heard Adobe portfolio's website is great, and I believe it's free.

Hi, If we got a client they want to hire us and spending so much time to send us a contract almost 15 days then what we do he do not said that he do not want me he said he want but beign late and it is original company and have great reputation

[@sugarpunchmarketing]

Sounds like they might be busy, but definitely don't do any work until the contract is signed and payment is made.
