8 Tips to Becoming a RICHER Freelance Writer

Extremely good and insightful. Definitely worth a good read.
Cheers.

 

Excellent info dude,thanks for sharing.

 

I don't understand the last part, about rethinking your strategy. Are you saying we should sell it for $500 or so? Because that person has no idea how much money they will make from that product down in the long run.

 

I agree with #5.

Listen, outsourcing and high rates are NOT mutually exclusive. We have deals with American writers who outsource their bulk work to us while they charge PREMIUM RATES. They edit/spotcheck the materials. We revise (if needed) until they're happy. Win-Win situation.

 

Good tips where do you get these high rates though (obviously not at digital point) can you share some places where to get adequately paid for your work

 

ill keep this guide with me all the time

 

Very informative, I been doing some articles/blogs in hard trying. Got some inspiration here. Thanks..

 

Thankyu for this Good sharing

 

Great tips. A greenie for you!

 

Great tips

 

i am, unfortunately, in a third world country. that's why we tend to accept low paying writing gigs. but perhaps one of these days...things will change.

thank you for sharing these!

 

What a great list of tips! Making yourself stand out is so necessary...fortunately with the bad quality of some of the writer's out there, it isn't that hard to be a the cream of the crop.

 

I have to disagree with the comment that writing e-books does not make a client a significant amount of money. I have written several e-books for a client and he has significantly increased his practice by giving them away for free to a very targeted group of potential clients. I haven't spoken with him this week, but last week alone, he signed two retainers worth $4,500 with more money to come in from those clients once the retainers have been spent (he's an attorney).

 

these tips are definitely helpful. although i've started making money from my writing, i would really love to have consistent money and this information is really wonderful. i'm researching more potential clients right now! thanks for sharing.

 

Thanks for sharing. Great points that every freelance writer should read and follow before writing their first article. Too many writers sell themselves short and in the end, make it worse for us all.

 

Great tips right there! I really appreciate your taking time to tip newbies like myself, especially at a time when the market is congested with competition.

 

A lot of info in store in this thread. I learned a lot. Many of us know what all is written here, but we don't pay much attention to such things but when we read them, they hit us better!!!!!

 

Awesome work, my friend. That's a resource that every freelancer should be forced to read.

 

Great tips! The one thing that I try to avoid is outsourcing. This can get you bogged down with tasks that are non-writing related. Additionally, you never know what type of work your contractors will turn in!

 

Personally, I don't outsource because I actually want to write. Why would I sell work away to someone else? I agree with the previous poster who said outsourcing just takes up time that you could be using to write. It depends on your underlying reason for freelancing. Is it all about the money? Or for the love of writing?
