Freelance writing is by far the best way to make money real quick.
There’s a problem though: Today, it’s not easy to break through freelance writing like it used to be five years ago – strategies that worked before may not work for you today.
And that’s why you need to take a different approach if you’re serious about succeeding with your freelance writing career.
What is one piece of advice everyone tells you when it comes to gaining more high paying clients?
Get testimonials from your happy clients and showcase them on your website.
Have you ever wondered how people get to the front pages of Behance, LinkedIn or even Tumblr for that matter? I’ve always been fascinated by freelancers who can seemingly pick who they want to work with from the number of messages they receive on the daily. What separates the greats from the rest of freelancers and bloggers who put just as much effort into their work? The answer to that question comes down to two simple words – personal branding.
Clients who find their freelancers online are rarely interested in the “you” you. Instead, they are interested in the image, personality and brand you create for your work.
You’ve tried crappy content mills, online job boards, and even cold emailing – but you’re still struggling to bring in more clients.
If you’re trying to jump into full-time freelancing, building a solid client base can be a steep challenge to overcome.
Constantly pitching to job boards can help, but relying on these tends to be unsustainable due to the constant effort it requires on your part.

When I first started freelance writing, I had no idea. I already had a blog so I didn’t understand why I needed a writer’s website on top of it.
If you’re a bit in the red this month then you may be looking for a way to earn some extra cash and pay off your debts.
The internet is aware of this, and there are all kinds of dodgy-looking schemes that promise we can earn X amount in X days, but how do you separate the sensationalism from the real deal?
