People sharing your posts or tagging friends in the comment section shows that they\u2019re really engaging with your content, and this is a great way to both recruit new clients and keep existing ones connected to you.<\/p>\n\n<p>Make sure you encourage this kind of engagement\u2014people love when their comments are liked, or they get tagged in a response. Perhaps it\u2019s time to attempt some social media promotions or giveaways too, like a draw for a free makeup application if someone shares a post? This costs you very little, and the promotion is free!<\/p>\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Referrals_are_Pouring_In\"><\/span>Referrals are Pouring In<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<p>Referrals mean more than just an extra booking.

Referrals can have a snowball effect too: if your current referred client loves your application, she\u2019ll tell her friends about it too, and it will just grow from there! <\/p>\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_Portfolio_is_Huge\"><\/span>Your Portfolio is Huge!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<p>When you were first starting out, you were begging friends to let you try different looks so that you could build up your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/online-makeup-courses\/portfolio-development\/\">portfolio<\/a>. Now, you have so much content you\u2019re able to get picky. High fashion, bridal, teen, mature clients\u2014you\u2019ve done it all! Having lots of different looks to showcase is a sign that you\u2019ve been working lots, and doing diverse and interesting applications. Your makeup career is taking off!<\/p>\n\n<p>Make sure you\u2019re updating your portfolio regularly to show your best, most recent work. Your skills are improving all the time, and you\u2019ll want to reflect that! Choose looks that not only reflect your skill, but also the kind of jobs you\u2019re hoping to book. It will be tough to branch out into high fashion if your portfolio is dominated by bridal makeup, and you\u2019re at a place in your makeup career where you can afford to be selective!<\/p>\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"High_Profile_Jobs\"><\/span>High Profile Jobs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<p>Getting to where you want with your makeup career isn\u2019t just about booking jobs, it\u2019s about what kind of jobs you book.
