Becoming a doula is not an easy thing, even though it feels like it is a very simple task. You may think that a doula does not have to do anything special, except for taking care of the would-be or new parents and the infant, but the truth is that it is quite a major responsibility. It is something that you need to be sure of doing and unless you are sure, do not get into the field.
If you have already thought of becoming a doula and have read a lot of articles on how to be a doula, you might want to learn about the top ways to promote yourself as this professional individual.
The very first thing that you need to do is create your very own page on Facebook. This social media platform has given a lot of chances to a lot of professional beings and thus, you can create a page, mention everything about your services and let people know you exist with this sort of a service for them. You can go for a paid promotion as well.
Secondly, try spreading the word through your loved ones and friends. If they forward your message to the others in their contact list or any free messenger they use on their cellphones, it is easier for you to grab the attention in the market.
Thirdly, ensure to get feedback from everyone you work for. Once you have given your services to a specific mother or new parents, you can request them to leave a textual note for you, rating your services. That is something you can promote on your social pages. You can make it a story on your messenger, Instagram profile and Facebook profile as well. You’d get more enquiries for your services, then.
