E-Course: Launch a Profitable Freelance Writing Career in 30 Days or Less Guaranteed!
How would you like to earn
$100, $150, $200/day or more working from home as a freelance writer, editor
and/or copy editor? Thousands are
and you can too!
If you can read and write, and
are willing to work hard, you can make a very comfortable living working from home as
an editorial freelancer. Easy Internet Riches
If you're looking for an easy way to make money, this course is not for you.
This is a REAL work-from-home
opportunity. You will not make $5,000 in 30 days and you will work more than
one hour a day. If you can make
$100, $150, $200/day or more, why
aren't more doing it? Simply put, because they don't know how and/or don't
believe it's possible. Many turn to the
internet looking for easy money, which most eventually discover doesn't exist. Quite frankly, this career will
probably not make you rich. Although there are those who routinely make $100K or
more per year. There's no "secret to success"
and no magic plan that will bring in thousands. It's just plain and simple work,
referrals and repeat clients that lead to success. No more, no less. This course will show you how to
get clients and referrals
hence, achieving success. A Way to Have a Life Again
What this career provides is a
way to have a life. You get to spend more time with friends and family, more
time in the comfort of your home, feel less stressed and gain a sense of
satisfaction in your career.
And, it can save you money
on commuting, dry cleaning,
daycare expenses, vehicle
maintenance, lunch, etc. All
of these are expenses associated with working away from home. Imagine how different your
days would be if you could work from home? No fighting rush hour traffic,
rushing to drop the kids off at daycare, squeezing everything in on the weekends
(eg, household chores; grocery shopping; errands; preparing clothes, lunches and
synchronizing schedules for the upcoming work week; etc.). By the time you do all of this,
Monday is here again and you don't feel like you ever have time to really just
enjoy life because your job dominates even your time off. It doesn't have to be this way. Make $30,000 to $50,000/Year
Pretty Seamlessly The demand is such that if
you're willing to put in the work, you can make a great living comparable to
most jobs that pay $30,000, $40,000 or $50,000/year.
If you put in the work, you will
reap the rewards
guaranteed! Replace Your Current Job
Make a Full- or Part-time Living as a Freelancer There are experienced
freelance writers, editors, copywriters and copy editors who make
$100,000 or more per year
every year. You have to build up to this, but if you're the average Joe pulling
in $30-$50K, this is a career than can easily replace the job you're currently
in. A Career for the "Every Day
Person" Age is not a barrier, income is
not a barrier, education is not a barrier. If you can read and write, you can
start this career. The best thing about it it's a
career you can have for years to come. A computer and a willingness to learn
basic marketing is about all you need to succeed. With no physical limitations,
you don't have to "retire," if you don't want to. The best part of this career?
The longer you're in it, the more clients you get, the busier you become and the
more money you make. You can start slow with no risk
because there's no office space to rent, equipment to buy or certifications to
get. You simply decide and you're in business. Work from Anywhere With a little guidance, which
this course provides in painstaking detail, you'll be well on you way to
building a career that you can do from anywhere. The beauty of working as
a freelance writer, editor and/or copy editor is that almost all of your work is
done remotely
via email and/or fax. With a laptop, you can literally
turn in projects from around the world! About The Class I hate to even describe this as

þMental
tips and tricks – 90% of every obstacle is mental. If you can master this
hurdle, you can get through anything. The work (10%) is easy. Getting over the
mentality of “I can’t/this is hard/I’m giving up, etc.” is what keeps most of us
from achieving goals.
I will
share with you some techniques that I use on a regular basis to help break the
ever-recurring “I can’t” mindset. How do I know they work?
On Thanksgiving Day (2006), I ran my first marathon after having been a runner
for over 20 years, never passing the 12-mile mark. When I first set a marathon
as my goal, I was scared to death that I would never be able to run that far
(26.2 miles).
Hard work (the easy part) and mental toughness is what got me through. And, you know what? It was easier (I didn’t say easy, I said easier) than I ever imagined it would be. Not only did I finish, but I ran the whole thing and did it in 20 minutes less than my target time!
Trust
me, developing mental toughness is as vital to your freelance success as your
writing skill.
þMuch
more which is impossible to detail here.
To paraphrase my mother, "If you want to do something, find someone who's
already doing it and copy them." Nothing is more helpful than first-hand advice
from a trusted source.
What Makes This E-Course Different from Others
Personal Experience: This course is based on my personal
success. Some jobs I got in what might be called a normal fashion; most I did
not.
While
there are many online writing courses you could take, there are two things you
should always look for a) honesty/trustworthiness/integrity; and b)
experience from the person giving the course.
Integrity:
If you're a regular reader of my blog (InkwellEditorial.blogspot.com) and its
accompanying site, InkwellEditorial.com, then you know that I tend to be
straightforward.
Via my directness, I trust that a sense of honesty (hence, trustworthiness comes through). I relay personal scenarios so that you can learn first-hand what to do, and perhaps more importantly, what NOT to do.
As a matter
of fact, before you sign up, I implore you to spend some time going through my
blog postings – you will get a feel for what I’m like and more vitally, what my
experience is. Speaking of experience . . .
Professional Experience: I've been around a while and am not
going anywhere. I've been in publishing since 1987, started freelancing in 1993
and ran an editorial staffing agency in New York from 1996-2004.
I've been on both sides of the hiring desk in the editorial industry so I
know what employers are thinking, looking for and what is more likely to get you
hired.
There are just certain mistakes that you're going to make unless and/or until
someone tells you why AND how to avoid them.
Being a business owner (I've owned two) added so much more to my freelancing
than being a publishing professional. In this course, you'll capitalize on this
knowledge.
The Technology Factor: My company has been in business since
1996; its blog has been online since February 2005; and its website has been around since 1999, for better or worse.
Although I freely admit that I am not the most technologically savvy person
around, I do keep abreast enough to be able to market effectively.
The reason this is important is because most, if not all, of your work will be
done remotely. You must, must, must have a website (which is why I included a
free one with this course) to be effective as a freelancer.
The most important reason being a little tech savvy is important
marketing to
clients. How can you effectively pitch a client on using you to write their web
copy when you don't even have a site yourself?
Freelance writers, editors, copy editors and copywriters must be
more than proficient wordsmiths; they must be effective on- and offline
marketers. Not only for
themselves, but to be able to educate clients (which makes a difference in how
much clients are willing to pay you).
Proactivity: This course is for those who want to make a
sustainable living from freelancing. To that end, it is PROACTIVE. Many courses
are reactive, eg, query and wait. This course sets a plan for you to follow day
in and day out
you're actively marketing all the time.
Target Market: I target the business community
not magazines
(where you have to query and wait for months to get paid); freelance job sites
(where the competition is so stiff and the pay so low that it's not an effective
use of your time); or tell you to subscribe to popular writing e-zines,
magazines, etc. to get jobs.
Location:
Whether you live in a small town, or a cosmopolitan city, it won't matter. You
can take the skills you acquire in this course and apply them from anywhere.
Work: If you're not prepared to do the work (which is not hard,
but is in-depth), then this course is not for you. Freelancing is work
and I
don't mean work on projects. I mean work to bring in the projects (eg,
marketing). But, once you know how to do this
it makes getting jobs so much
easier.
Personal Consultation: I will personally review each
participant's marketing plan and give advice/feedback.
Enroll
now.
Psychographics: This is simply how people think; what makes them
tick. One thing being an entrepreneur has taught me is that people buy based on
feeling, not price or experience or education.
In the course, I will explain why this is important and how you can use it to
bring in more business.
If you're really serious about finally making it as a freelancer, you won't find
a better course than this. I just can't say it more succinctly.
I hope
to see you enrolled and wish you a prosperous freelance career!
ENROLL NOW!
Enrollment: Upon
successful enrollment, you will receive an email from PayPal (Inkwell
Editorial's payment
processor of choice), which is your receipt for the class. Please keep this for
your records (remember, it is a tax write-off).
Class Procedure: The class
is dispensed in five sections. A section is emailed every morning at 8:00am (EST), excluding weekends.
You can work at your own leisure – that’s the beauty of email – I just promise
it’ll be waiting for you at this time.
The marketing portion of the course must be completed no later than two weeks after receipt of the last lesson. Why? Because I personally review this section of your course – giving you valuable feedback on what might possibly need to be changed, added, deleted, etc. to make it more effective.
If you don’t want to take advantage of this free consultation, you can complete this at your leisure.
All correspondence will be answered by me – and only me – during the course of the class. I will correspond to all inquiries within 24 hours (usually much less, as I’m online practically all the time).
To your freelance
success,
