Are you interested in finding freelance writing jobs to help you make money writing?
The thought of freelance writing sparks your imagination, but you have absolutely no clue how to start, where to look or how to do this successfully.
Well, I’m here to tell you that starting as a freelance writer is possible, and easier than you think.
A New Year!
Excited and looking forward to seeing how successful you’re going to be as a freelance writer?
I know I am.
Are you a freelance writer in your first or second year?
I’ve been a freelance writer for five years now and have been going through the Christmas holidays for a few years now.
While I usually pick up client work in December, when the holidays are officially over, I get stuck on “vacation mode.”
I’ve been a freelance writer for a little over a year and I recently posted my goals for my business.
I’m pretty private with my goals. My husband is the only one who knows my business goals and personal goals. I’m definitely not a blabber.
But, this past summer I was ecstatic to take my business to the next level and I wanted to include my readers in on my journey.
December can be a slow month for many freelance writers.
Bloggers, entrepreneurs and companies slow down for the holidays, leaving many freelance writers with very little work.
This isn’t always the case though. My last December turned out to be a great month for my business. I landed a couple of freelance writing jobs and had consistent writing all month long.
For many new freelance writers, landing a client and earning consistent pay is a top priority (even for seasoned writers too!).
The life of a freelance writer isn’t always predictable and to make it longer than 6 months freelancing, you need to have a solid plan to earn more writing.
Sometimes that can mean re-evaluating your pitching process and coming up with better way to pitch.
Thinking about becoming a freelance writer?
Heard you can make full-time living from this and you want to give it a go yourself?
Freelance writing is a great choice for stay-at-home moms, bloggers, aspiring writers and anyone who just wants a change from their typical 9-5 job. I started freelance writing when I was a stay-at-home mom and needed to find a way to continue staying home and raise my twins.
Are you pulling your hair out because you just don’t get it?
You’re a new freelance writer so you know you have to hustle to land that first client.
You know you need samples, so you got to it early on.
What does a successful freelance writer mean to you?
Does it mean being able to live comfortably from writing alone?
Or, does it mean trying to find ways to make more money and diversify your business?
Raise your hand if you’re a journalist and any writing portfolio pieces you have are in print?
You want to transition or moonlight as a freelance writer, but you have no proof online that you can even write.
You’re stuck and have no clue what to do, even though you have years of reporting background or experience writing news stories for your local newspaper.
