Step 3
A number of our members have paid for leads through other services, and they look at GigX as being successful if they get a few leads – whether they become clients or not. They see GigX as part of their multi-channel strategy to grow their business, not as a silver bullet.
7. What does success via the GigX platform look like for you?*

Step 5
Many of our GigX members have learned to talk about themselves differently, and this is opening up new types of conversations and opportunities.

A good example: GigX members who used to refer to themselves as "Consultants" are now positioning themselves as "Fractional CxOs".

This approach seems to elevate the conversation, and it allows a prospective client to see the GigX member in a new, more attractive light.

Over the past few months, we've been focused on building our social platforms, offering relevant blog posts, and enhancing our SEO.
