If you've ever looked at a job board for freelance writers, you probably thought to yourself…
"These people are insane. They are paying practically nothing, and they have huge demands!"
And you're right, they do.
Most of them don't know any better. They are cash-strapped and stumbling around in the dark, trying to figure out how to do business online.
In truth? They are crappy clients.
But if you are interested in becoming a freelance writer, you should still work with them. Here's why:
- You'll gain portfolio pieces, client testimonials, and overall experience – all of which help you raise your rates for future clients.
- Once they see how good you are, many will happily double or triple what they pay you. They just need to be educated about what goes into good content.
In other words, it's a stepping stone.
What are the rest of the steps?
