Many people dream about high-paying writing jobs. I found them. For the past year, I have earned one hundred dollars for every hour I write.
This is not a secret trick. It is a real job you can do. If you want to stop earning low rates, this guide will show you how.
Stop Selling Words. Start Selling Answers.
I changed my mindset. I stopped selling articles. I started selling solutions.
Businesses have problems. They will pay you to solve them.
Their problems look like this:
Google can’t find our website. (They need SEO help.)
People visit our site but don’t buy. (They need better sales writing.)
No one understands our product. (They need clear explanations.)
When you solve problems, you become very valuable.
You Don’t Need Fancy Experience
Do not worry about a perfect resume. Clients care about one thing:
Can you help them?
I started with no portfolio. I built one myself.
I chose topics I liked, such as “easy gardening” or “best apps for small business.” I wrote great blog posts about them. I published these samples on a free blog like Medium.
Now I had proof of my skills. I could show clients my work.
Where To Find Clients Who Pay Well
Good jobs are not on most public job boards. You need to look in the right places.
Small Marketing Agencies: This is my favorite source. Agencies have clients but not enough writers. They will pay you to help. Find them online and send a nice email.
Companies You Like: Think about the brands you use. Visit their website. If their blog is old or boring they need you. Tell them you have a concept for a brand new project.
Use LinkedIn: Make your LinkedIn profile say “Freelance Writer.”
Talk to marketing managers. Be friendly and helpful in your messages.
What To Say In Your First Email
Be helpful, not desperate. Do not just ask for work.
Use this simple example:
Subject: A blog idea for [Company Name]
Hi [Name],
I saw your website. I liked your article about [Topic].
I think your customers would love a post about [Your New Idea].
I am a writer who helps businesses like yours. I write clear content that gets readers.
Here is a sample of my work: [Link to your sample]
Are you interested in seeing a draft of my idea?
Thanks,
[Your Name]
This email shows you did your research. It focuses on helping them.
You Are Worth $100 Per Hour.
Charging this much feels scary at first. You will wonder if you are worth it.
But when your writing brings a business more traffic and sales, you are worth every penny.
Start by raising your rates for each new client. Your confidence will grow.
This path is real. It takes difficult paintings. You ought to be a problem-solver, not just an author. You can do this.
