Are you coming up on the big 5-0 and thinking that it’s too late to pursue your dreams as a writer?
Well let me tell you, it is never too late to start that freelance writing career you have always dreamed about.
Perhaps you are stepping out of the cut-throat corporate world, or have spent the last few decades taking care of others.
One thing I learned early in my freelance writing career is that, in order to gain experience and traction, I had to step out of my wheelhouse from time to time.
As a writer, I love writing blog content!
Especially for my sites where I can share information and stories to really connect with my audience.
Since the Pandemic, eCommerce purchases – buying things online – increased 42%.
More and more people are using the Internet to buy their groceries, clothing, toys and more.
Most of us call it “online shopping” but in the world of business it’s known as “eCommerce.”
If you’ve read any of my other blog posts on this blog, then you know it’s possible to make money as a freelance writer!
But saying “I’m a freelance writer” is sort of a broad way to say I make money by writing.
The truth is, as a freelance writer, you can make money through different types of writing!
Are you thinking, “what is the salary of a freelance writer?”
I know I did when I first became a freelance writer.
I had no clue what the average freelance writer salary was, and on top of that, how much do freelance writers make?
In 2014, I used my first job search site, and with a bit of hustle, I was able to land my first job as a writer!
Back then, using the Internet to do your job searching just wasn’t the norm. Instead, you relied on who you knew and your business and personal network to find a job.
Nowadays, though, using job boards online to search for dozens of potential leads is commonplace – especially if you are a remote worker or freelance writer.
Ever thought about expanding your skillset and working online?
These online editing jobs might be just the ticket to showcasing your skills but also to earning some extra income in 2024 and beyond.
Every day we hear about new remote working options.
According to Pew Research Center 71% of people are working from home.
The pandemic has made this a necessary option but more and more people are deciding to work from home for good.
Interest in cannabis is rising around the globe with CBD being the highest health-related term on Google!
People are becoming more and more curious about cannabis and businesses are starting to pick up on this trend.
With an increase in online interest comes the need for high-quality content so that cannabis businesses can attract more customers to their services.
Are you new to freelance writing?
Congratulations! You are on your way to having a flexible and rewarding career!
But getting started as a freelance writer isn’t always easy.
