Hey freelance writers!
This is day two of my 5 Days of Facebook Lives on Freelance Writing Tips. For this Facebook Live I dive deep into the four main ways to stay efficient as a new writer.
If you missed the first day, I talked about the 4 Skills Profitable Freelance Writers Posses.
Did you catch me live in my Facebook group? I’m in the middle of doing five days of freelance writing tips over in my Facebook page and I’m loving it!
Okay.
I’m not the best presenter or speaker, but I’m showing you that I’m actually doing it. I’m scared, anxious and I totally messed up and say um a lot. But, I did it. I took action and did something new.
Face it:
You’ve been trying this whole freelance writing thing for three months, and you haven’t landed a freelance writing client.
Sure, you’ve gotten a project here and there, but nothing recurring and nothing more than a few dollars.
Is writing all you need to land some side hustle jobs?
For a lot of people, that’s what they focus on when they try to land a writing job. If they can get A’s in school, then surely they can be a freelance writer.
But, they soon wonder why they aren’t landing consistent work.
What are you doing right now? I hope you’re changing your hobby writing passion into a money-making profession!
Becoming a freelancer is the hot thing right now.
This is a good thing because we have the ability to set our rate and find new freelance clients.
The big question a lot of new freelance writers ask is how the heck do you get consistent freelance writing work?
For a lot of you, you’re sick and tired of writing one-off pieces never to get an email from your client asking you for another project.
I have very few ad hoc clients and that’s because I need regular clients to make a living writing.
Wow, another year has gone by in my freelance writing business and so much has happened for me! I have no idea where to begin. It seems like everything is jumbled in my mind right now.
The person and the business in January took a great pivot in the summer and is taking another turn for 2017. I think the big change in goals occurred when I started Twins Mommy.
So, to say that my mind is wrapped around that new platform isn’t an understatement. But, that doesn’t mean this blog or my freelance writing business is taking a back burner.
Tis the season to be sick.
I’ve been a freelance writer for two years and a mother for almost four years. And guess what? I’ve been sick only twice during this time and three times in my entire life.
Now, when I say sick I don’t mean going to the hospital with IVs or having some emergency in the middle of the night. No. I just mean the flu. But, hell, the flu kicks butt and it literally zaps the life out of you.
Do you want to be a freelance writer but have no clue how to start?
Or, are trying to make some money as a freelance writer and all you’re getting are one-off content jobs for $20? Navigating the world of freelancing can be a challenge if you don’t know where to find jobs or how to have steady work.
I started freelance writing over two years ago. My twins weren’t even two years old when I landed my first client. I was new and made a lot of mistakes.
I have hit a dead-end with my freelance business. I am not getting any new prospects.
Is that you?
I get a lot of emails every week from new aspiring freelance writers and those who have been moonlighting as a freelance writer for a while.
