If you want to make money writing – whether it be a one-off thing for extra money or a full blown freelance writing business I’ve got a post on The College Investor today that will show you how.
This post covers:
- 10 Blogs that Pay Anywhere From $35-$800 per Guest Post
- How to Break Into Magazine Writing
- Freelance Writing Job Boards to Check Out
- Getting Unique Gigs From Craigslist
- Cold Pitching to Build Your Own Roster of Clients
Here’s a preview:
Freelance writing is the ultimate side hustle. It’s flexible, it pays well, and it’s enjoyable.
In fact, freelance blogging helped me go from earning $1,600 per month to earning more than $5,500 per month. This profession was my golden ticket to bigger and better opportunities.
The flexibility and sheer amount of opportunity that comes along with freelance writing makes it a fantastic side hustle for anyone who enjoys to write.
Do you think there is still a demand for it. It seems like everyone is now doing writing and VA work??
Absolutely! I turn down a job just about every week because I can’t handle any more work. This type of work will only grow and grow in demand. And although it seems like a lot of people do freelance writing and VA work I don’t really see too many stick with it long term. You’ve really got to stick with to make good money doing it. Everyone starts at the bottom.
But yes if you can specialize in something (even as specific as running FB pages for Dentist offices 🙂 ) then there is a TON of opportunity. I’m constantly referring other people to the jobs I get offered. I think this type of work will massively grow in the future so getting your foot in the door now could lead to something amazing down the road 🙂
Thanks Alexa. 🙂
