Do you know how to write a pitch?
I know it can seem a bit tedious at times, but I tell my course students that knowing how to write a good pitch is the best way to quickly land consistent and decent paying jobs.
It’s how I first got started with freelance writing.
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.
Are you a new freelance writer struggling to find a writing gig that actually pays?
You ask, how do I start freelancing and get freelance clients?
Or, are you stuck working for pennies and want out?
When I first started freelance writing, finding a high-paying writing job felt like a full-time job.
Cold emailing is one of the very first skills I had to figure out when I became a freelance writer.
I still remember the day in 2014 when I wrote my very first client email pitch (after my horrible stint with content mills).
