Nice video content! Forgive me for butting in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you ever tried - Chireetler Healthy Sport Rule (google it)? It is a smashing one of a kind product for making money as a freelance copywriter even with no experience minus the normal expense. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my friend at last got cool results with it.
This was great, thanks, been searching for "looking for a writer" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Mennaphew Coinspin Expertise - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my mate got great success with it.
Kudos for the video content! Sorry for chiming in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Tarbbatigan Imaginable life Tip (should be on google have a look)? It is an awesome exclusive guide for making more money on the internet without the headache. Ive heard some great things about it and my close friend Aubrey after a lifetime of fighting got astronomical results with it. 😎👍

Winner of a video, I've been looking for "ehow freelance writer" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Fiyyan Freelance Fraternity - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my m8 got cool results with it.
I’ve been passively looking at information on becoming a paid writer for longer than I’d like to admit. Your video is THE first piece of content that I’ve come across that has truly given me a non overwhelming how to guide on getting started. Incredibly grateful for the work you put into this. My hand hurts from the note taking 😊 excellent video. Thank you thank you thank you. Subscribed!
There’s no other greater joy than having financial freedom and a life free of debts, all thanks to Mr Nicholas, for his support that help me gain financial freedom, through stock trade, He has helped me a lot with his trading strategies which helps me to earn $22,550 weekly. I really appreciate it and can't help but let others know about it Mr Nicholas Strategies that kills the market, you can reach Mr Nicholas on Instagram @nicholas__fxtrade. for more info.
Did you ever make that leap getting started?
@@ronald_trunk1704 no
Your video here is the first CZcams video in my search of freelance writing that I have watched. Great presentation. At 63 I’ve been in the trades for 40 years, self employed for 30 years, my current service is lawn mowing and driveway snow plowing. As a much, much younger man I was pursuing a creative path in the arts, but I needed to eat so I began a very long detour as a house painter, a carpenter, a tree and hedge man, and so on till my pinnacle was reached as a suburban PRO zero turn rider. Well my wife is not confident that I can do this gig into my wee old years, and so after filling our house and our camp with my artwork from decades of unsold work, I’m looking at my other creative passion…..writing. I’m sure it will be another lesson in perseverance like all the other creative venues I’ve explored in my free time but at least it’s a different sell than the visual arts. It’s easy to create a cool hunk of artwork and have rave reviews but pulling out the cash roll and peeling off a few, no so.
I’m in. I’m a student of this freelance thing. I already have a sweet camper van, and some amazing places to sit with a laptop and “work”. I just have to actually learn and follow instructions. I’m motivated after a long career of physical labor, I can only hope I have enough mental capacity for writing…time will tell, sincerely George.
Good luck, George from Pakistan.
I love your story, George! It really inspired me!❤️
@@tissanhoward Thanks for the good vibes! Now about a year since that comment to your video, I have sort of dropped the notion of chasing after freelance writing. The tech challenges and internet skills are too complicated for my old dog mind, I will always write none the less. Creatively, my true call is as a visual Artist and the last 10 years as a wood sculptor/carver feels like the path before me.
As I have aged after a lifetime of pursuits that typically are solo pursuits I have gotten to where helping others with their goals as an encouraging outsider is filling the void that I had thought writing might fill. Time will tell….I will continue to write but not be concerned with where it takes me.
Go get ‘em, George!
As of today I looked into freelance writing as a side hustle and I found your channel. The information on here was so good I subscribed and turned on the notifications bell. Exactly the information I needed. Thanks!!
Yeah!! Glad you're finding it useful! Keep me posted if I can help with anything.
6 months later. Did his tips help?
Winner of a video, I have been researching "freelance copywriter definition" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Fenrianna Subconscious Framework - (do a search on google ) ? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for discovering how to become an in demand freelance copywriter with no experience without the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my m8 got amazing success with it.

You're totally right. In the past I thought I had been through so many bad writers, but in reality I wasn't niching down enough when selecting experts in the specific fields.
This is helpful. I am an expert in Economics, business, finance, and statistics. If you need a writer, I will be glad to offer my services. Thank you
Bravo! I seriously thought I would be bored with this video after watching so many tutorials and motivational material. You had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. Brilliant. Thank You.
This video is extreamy helpful, especially the way you broke it own, aong with important resources in the info box! Thanks so much and am happy to be a new subscriber!!
Thank you! So glad you got value out of it, and hope you enjoy the upcoming videos :)
Proofread your comments before posting for spelling errors. I'm not trying to be rude, but I find it ironic that you're interesting in writing and yet, you have so many spelling errors in your comment.
Sean, some weeks and videos ago, you said that the way to get a career started is to go and do the cold approach (which I warmed up slightly) and see the people you need to see to get the work. Well, I did that! I took my 3 samples to a restaurant, talked with the company officer, gave them to him. I will be checking back with him this next week to see his reaction. My business card was included with the samples, but I am going to get back with him this week. Having the guts to approach took some, but I did it. Doing follow-up will take some more, but I know I can do the work.
I know I can write well, but I don't feel like I have the qualifications or knowledge about any one industry/niche
same
Use your life experiences
I also feel the same. I hope you do great! 😅
Well then learn about things. Not that hard I think to start off
Same here 😅
Thank you Sean! I am taking my first steps into freelance blogging and this has pointed me in the right direction as to what to do. In addition to these steps you laid out, I am also seeking a coach on this topic. So I have a lot of work to do, and look forward to it. Always looking out for contacts when I can. Thank you for your detailed information!
This is what I needed. Just put in my 2 weeks at a miserable call center job and I am super passionate about sports media, so I’ll be starting my own freelance business in sports content writing. I’ll be referring back to this video several times
How has it been goinng for you? !
Choosing a niche is one of the best things to do to improve the numbers of readers you have. People want to read about things that aren't already being written about, so once you find your niche, stick with it and be consistent with your message.
"How to Become a FREELANCE WRITER in 2021"
Me: *laughs in 2019*
Been watching your videos since 2017! Anytime I feel stuck or just need a bit of boost that I'm doing the right things in my writing business, BOOM! a video I can dive in to! Thank you :)
I started about a month ago, made about $400 on fiverr. Just today realized that if I up my skill level I can start making real money.
hey Rafael, How did you make such mone, I'm currently having a hard time.
@@Emma_sesh Hey Emma. It was a combination of a few things. Firstly I spent lots of time completely optimizing my gig. I literally looked at every single variable I could control about my gigs appearance, words and SEO . For example, I did keyword research and studied the keyphrases of the best selling gigs in my niche(500+ orders, with many orders in queue) in order to find the best ones. I used keywords combos that multiple best sellers in my niche used. I did essentially the same thing for the SEO meta data. Other things would be to get an attractive gig cover image. I made my own at first, but my gig impressions to click ratio got MUCH better when I paid a professional a few bucks to make me one. Again I studied the best selling and highest ranking gigs in my niche . I noticed that they mostly used a very simple, clean image simply stating their services. The results were dramatic. The first day I had a 100% impression to click ratio, although it's dropped to a more natural 25% since. I could go on and on, but let me know if you want more advice. The first sale is the hardest, so I would also consider getting a friend or family member to purchase a $5 package to get the ball rolling. What kind of work do you do?
May I ask what your name is on Fiverr?
@@rafaelrondon63, wow! Thanks for this, Raf. You've really outlined what newbies like me needed.
I just signed up on Fiverr, created my first gig but haven't got any orders yet.
Is there a way I can connect with you?
@@Claudius.a Hello! I'd be happy to connect and share resources about this journey.
A few questions:
* What is your experience level?
* How did you learn copywriting?
* What books have you read on the subject?
I am in the middle of "The Copywriter's Handbook" by Robert Bly... and it's been absolutely game changing. Let me know where you're at and we can talk more, maybe connect via skype.
How do you know if there is money to be made in writing for a specific industry?
You've given us real value! Thank you!!
I am still struggling to find projects... can you shed some light on how to bag a project and to get connections
OMG!

Wow! You’re awesome. I’m jazzed. Thanks for this to-the-point info. 🙏🏾
Thank you for the video. Its very helpful and you gotta playful character. Glad this video had a spice of life and not a boring teacher demeanor to it.
I have been writing since I was 3. I psych myself out letting people read my books. I want to publish my books but I have to pay for professional editing and find an agent and establish a social media platform with a huge email list. I want to write articles but they want a portfolio with experience, so that’s an endless cycle. I’ve had multiple blogs. They’re boring. Now, I feel overwhelmed. I have 3 books on ice. I have like 20 articles on ice. I’m trying to start a blog. I’m trying to use Instagram, Pinterest, TikTok, CZcams... I don’t have money and time. I’m trying to get a RedBubble store going to help raise money. I’ve done a lot of reviews on Yelp, Influenster, and GoodReads. I’ve had multiple blogs. I’ve done a lot of ghostwriting and proofreading and tutoring. I really don’t want a website. I feel like I am going around in circles and I am stressed and exhausted. It’s overwhelming.
Thank you for a very in-depth, interesting and informative video on content writing. Will definitely watch more, my feet aren't even wet yet.
Am just beginning in article writing, I have to do this because I have just been blessed with two children. I have to see them grow.Where do I go?
Best video ever on the subject. Thank you!
How will AI affect freelance Copywriters in the near future? Will you use it as a tool or will sites and orgs simply just use the AI instead of the writer?
That's a crystal clear information as the glass of water you're drinking..🔥🔥👍
Just what i needed . with quarantine and all i really need money
My mom told me to think of the write now and practically said that i cant write my book because i wont get anything from it...
I told her I'm gonna become a journalist. She's pissed.
(Im not doing this without experience, i had 3 years in journalism at my high school and was the chief editor my senior year)
Super stoked about getting started as a writer, thanks for your charm and motivation. Writing + travel this couldn't be more perfect for me. Liked & sub'd thank you person with such a fun sense of humor!

Thanks for the information.
I just subscribed to your channel. Thank you for being informative and concise.
I want to write because the flexibility aka How much time I work so I can have freedom to do others things I like but I guess I'll have to upgrade my english level actually my mother language is spanish
This has been very helpful , am considering freelance writing as a side hustle
Oh my god I'm also watching this video at around 12.30 in the afternoon 🤩😁
Please help me and answer.
After some time I think I have found my niche to write about. However I'm not sure if it's an actual niche
Do you think writing based on football is a niche? Articles, blog posts and writing based on football. Is it a niche in your opinion?

I agree that we should have a website but, what happens when we don't have a website yet? What could we do? Thank you!
Thank you for the breakdown 😊
I'm thankful 🥺
Thank you excited to get started!
But how will they hire you when they ask you for your experience in this industry and you have to say you have none?
Thank you for your video, Rebel! It was very helpful! Thank you for your time and effort!

Thank you for this excellent content. Very, very helpful.
My story is unique and while I know I’m sitting on a ton of content and am a strong writer, I need guidance on what I should work on first. I need 30 mins with someone experienced in content creation to hear my wild and unique story, what unique material I have and just point me in right direction. Where do I find that person? 🙏🏼
That was WONDERFUL.♥️
Thank you Monsieur.
Thank you for the clear outline of how to go about this journey. I really appreciate the simple yet thorough approach! I will let you know how my journey goes =)
Technically, water is a cocktail mix of two different elements.
Is freelancing your full-time job? Is it possible to live off of free-lancing?
So grateful..love the energy
Wonderful, very informative and motivating. Thank you.
You sound fun and yet very informative. Great job
yes
I think it's apt to mention on a video about marketing and freelance business that viewer interactions helps people like this immensely! If you got value from this video, it's only right to show your gratitude with a like and a comment. Right? PUMP THOSE NUMBERS UP THOSE ARE ROOKIE NUMBERS
