One of the topics we often discuss on this podcast is doing client work. If you haven’t yet considered it as a way to supplement your income, I encourage you to think about it.
When you’re starting with freelance writing, how do you get that first client? This is a critical question because getting that first client is very important. Once that happens, you have more confidence and momentum.
I’m excited to have two guests on this roundtable episode who share some expert tips on getting that first client. The first is Lynn Smargis, who is a freelance writer in the area of health and fitness, gluten-free lifestyle, education, science, travel, and educational technology. She is also the host of the Gluten-Free Travel Podcast.
The second Leo York, who is a Leo is a copywriter who specializes in commercial screenplays. He is the copywriter who popularized using evolutionary behavior as a baseline for content. Leo is also the co-host of The 13th Floor Podcast.
In this conversation, we tackle why you should consider freelance writing, how to choose an area of specialization, how to find your first client, how to sell yourself, and much more.
Even if you are already doing client work, you’ll benefit from this episode. Plus, these guys are a lot of fun. Here’s my conversation with Lynn Smargis and Leo York.
