Help Me Brand and Build My Business Please?
I would like to ask for a favor from all of my IBO associates.
I am trying to brand and build my own writing business and I could use everyone's help.
I have a blog right now that I can use as a reference point and also a few samples of my writing that have been published (Selfgrowth.com) and a couple links to articles that I have sold.
I am able to write in many different niche areas (any really) I am willing to research if necessary to complete the job.
I am able to write articles, blog posts, reviews, e-books, descriptions, recipes, essays, and much more.
I also am going to offer editing/proofreading as another aspect of my business, so if someone has their own content but just wants it proofread and edited/revised I am able to provide that service.
My prices are very reasonable, I obviously will have a lower sale price right now until I am able to A)Sell myself better B)Have more work samples to show C) until I build up my clientele.
I am also available as a ghostwriter, a guest poster to blogs and forums, all rights of my writing are given to the person that pays me, unless they need it to be a post/comment and it needs to be from someone else.
I keep copies of what I write for my portfolio and as work samples ONLY!!!!
I am currently working on a couple jobs through Elance as a writer. To view my profile you can go here
I have been doing a lot of research and so far I have been under charging and not getting what I am worth. My goal is to be making an average of $100 an hour, in a year. This may sound crazy BUT is very possible.
I am very serious about this, and I am in the process of applying for a few different freelancing positions. They pay well, one is a minimum of 10 blog posts a week @ 350 words for $15 a post ( I was told this was a good rate for a freelancer that is just starting) another job I am applying for (fingers crossed) is 1 post per week between 400 to 1000 words each and pays $80 to $100 per post. I am very excited.
My writing "mentor" suggests getting to a point where I write about 50 posts a month (sounds like a lot but really its not) and to have a minimum of 15 paying clients. This is feasible, since most will only require weekly or monthly posting.
I am working on a new blog (suggested by Bill:),..based on what I am doing) so that clients can be sent there as well as my other blog. Bill suggested a business blog, so I am going to have a business page in it to send people to and this will be basically an about me and I may put the links to my published work on it also or I may have a separate page for the links and call it links to my work and then also have several other 'tabs' about things such as earning a living writing, business opp reviews, freelancing site reviews, a "what I am up to" tab to keep people updated
All of my reviews will be honest reviews, the good and the bad about every biz opp, freelancing site, these reviews will also be wrote so they can be used as another work sample. This is because many people that need content are interested in seeing a personally written blog and most want to know that a person can write about a variety of topics, honestly and clearly.
Some people may want me to review their business or website and post it on my blog and this is the blog I will use for work related blogs etc...my other blog may at times, have some of the same content but isn't a business blog.
My blog; FYI: For Your Information!
This blog is already established and is about a variety of things. I would recommend you check it out if your haven't already.
My new Blog; Earn A Living Online~Tips,Tricks And Techniques
This blog will be up and running soon. I am in the process of setting it up and posting.
I want to thank you all in advance for reading this, spreading the word or possibly hiring me yourself. I am available short term, long term, per post, per job and can start right away if need be.
My contact information is margodjohnson@gmail.com please put in the subject line RE:Writer For Hire...... this way I don't overlook your email. You can also message me here:)
Again Thank you very much (sorry this was so long,..lol)
