People keep asking me about freelance copywriting.
I don’t know if it’s the economy or what, but there are definitely worse ways to make a living than by writing ads (sure beats digging ditches).
Well, the first thing I suggest is specializing.
In other words, don’t be the general practitioner of copy.
Be the brain surgeon.
Or foot doctor.
Or dermatologist, etc.
What you specialize in is up to you (obviously), but here are a few things to pick from:
- Long form sales letters
- Video scripts
- Emails and auto-responders
- Speech writing
- Fundraising
- Catalog copywriting
- Newsletter promotions
There are more than that.
But if you simply picked one of the above to focus on, and excel at, and become known in the market as the “go to” person for that speciality, you will probably never have to worry about getting gigs again.
Instead, people will gravitate towards you.
And nobody else will be good enough for them.
What about how to FIND clients?
That’s a whole other ball of ear wax.
Many other people have created products on the subject (some good, some not so good). And I even recently wrote a Crypto Marketing Newsletter issue on the subject last month (back issues are available for sale only to paying subscribers).
So there’s plenty of info out there on that.
But the above should put you on the right trail…

P.S. One “how to get clients” product I recommend is Ryan Healy’s “Get Clients” report. Ryan has had some 70 clients in the past 4 years (give or take).
So he definitely knows how the game is played.
And (even more important) how to WIN it.

Plus, if you buy from my affiliate link, email me your receipt and I’ll send you a special MP3 I did with John Anghelache who’s no slouch when it comes to getting clients, either. In fact, he’s gotten gigs from the late Gary Halbert, Yanik Silver, Michel Fortin, Peter Stone, and other great clients who don’t suffer fools gladly.
Anyway, some awesome tips in this bonus.
And it’s yours if you buy Ryan’s eBook from my affiliate link and email me your receipt.
