Ask HN: How to find a remote client based in the US?
We have a small software development company based in Europe, about 10 developers with 5-10 years of experience in mostly fullstack product development projects, JVM+React/Angular tech and customer development with lean methodologies. We are thinking of looking for clients outside of Europe, mainly in the US. Not for any particular reason other than interest in what US has to offer. What would be the best way to start gathering leads? Any good sites or communities to look for? Hit LinkedIn and UpWork and try your luck. Initially, both projects and pay would suck. But, with more experience (that includes soft skills and business wits) and as your network gets bigger, you'll fare better, will find new sales channels, and higher quality clients and projects. Reach out to me if you have any particular questions. Thanks for the answer! Our initial assumption was also LinkedIn, didn't know about UpWork.
