Why Your Readers Don’t Respond
Have you been writing marketing copy? Are you getting little or no results–even though you can tell from analytics that your pages are being read?
Your headline is hot. Your writing rocks. Your topic fits–yet none of your readers ever *do* anything at all. Why not?
What could be wrong?
Rediscovering the Joy of Writing
I might have been a bit moody as a teen. I remember dragging a notebook around (it wasn’t really a journal–just an ordinary composition book) and jotting down poems and other thoughts as they occurred to me.
Why would I do such a thing?
I attribute my early scribblings to something many of us who are professional writers seem to have forgotten–the joy of writing.
Why Accountability Is Important for Freelance Writers
What holds freelance writers (and especially new writers) back?
It’s a fact that many new writers do not live up to their potential as a writer. Even experienced writers sometimes fail to meet their true potential. (Of course, few writers want to admit this fact, let alone discuss it.)
Writers not living up to their potential is a serious problem. It’s a problem that can derail a freelancing career. Fortunately, it’s also a problem with a solution.
I’m convinced that the answer to this problem is accountability.
Don’t Let Poor Writing Skills Hold You Back
Headline after headline proclaims the sad news–writing skills are deteriorating.
Blame the texting. Blame social media. Blame the schools. Blame whoever or whatever you want–it doesn’t really matter. The facts are the same.
The sad truth is that if you can’t write well you’ll have fewer opportunities in life. Communication skills are key to success.
Product Review: AWAI Accelerated Copywriting Course
“How can I earn more money as a freelance writer?”
This is probably the number one question that other freelance writers ask me. My answer to them is always the same.
My answer is this–write for the business market. You may not get a byline, but the pay for commercial copywriting is much better than the pay for blogging or writing for magazines.
