THE SUM OF OUR FLAWS OR OUR SUCCESSES?

Do we look at ourselves as the sum of our flaws or the sum of our successes?

Do we look at others as the sum of their flaws or the sum of their successes?

Are you living up to your values or someone else's values? 

When you stop and take measure of yourself, when you reflect on who you are, do you see the flaws or the successes?

In the piece Why You Should Make Time for Self-Reflection (Even If You Hate Doing It), Executive Coach Jennifer Porter notes that when leaders are asked to stop and reflect, they balk. "Most leaders quickly dismiss the noted strengths and dislike the noted weaknesses." 

In this, the last issue of FundsforWriters for the year, I could ask you to approach the world with a more positive effort. This year has been such a Debbie-Downer for so many, myself included, and the adversarial nature of people has all but exploded. But I'm not all knowing about the world and don't seek to tell you how to live, so I'll limit the suggestion to writing.

Approach writing with positive energy. You don't have to feel cocksure, but you can certainly think productively. We can look at other writers, successful and not, with a camaraderie air rather than competitively and adversarially.  

But we cannot always change how others treat us. However, we can amend how we react. I leave you in 2018 with the following, and hope that it takes root and serves you well.

“The man of courage is not the man who did not face adversity. The man of courage is the man who faced adversity and spoke to it. The man of courage tells adversity, ‘You’re trespassing, and I give you no authority to steal my joy, my faith or my hope.’” —Kiese Laymon, How to Slowly Kill Yourself and Others in America 






NOTE: Freelance writing guru Carol Tice of Make a Living Writing, currently has a survey going on about the rates that freelance writers make. Feel free to take the survey here - https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/writer-rates . She intends to announce the results in mid-January, and I'm eager to see them! You should be too!

SUCCESS QUOTE

SUccess Story

Dear Hope,

It's a great pleasure each Friday to find 'Funds for Writers' in my mailbox. Sometimes I wait until Saturday to read it, just to prolong the pleasure. I love your editor's notes, take inspiration from reading about how you've morphed from a previous career to the writing life, and admire your perseverance through difficult times looking after your parents. I appreciate the balance you achieve in being open about these topics while keeping the focus of the newsletter on writing. 

I also want to share a FFW-related success:  a short story of mine, 'Copacetic', will be published in Reed Magazine ('the oldest literary magazine west of the Mississippi', apparently) all because I entered it into a contest I found on Funds for Writers (the John Steinbeck Award for Fiction). The story did not take the prize, but the editors liked it enough to include it in the same issue. 

In short, thank you very much for your work and imagination in constructing and distributing the newsletter. 

Sincerely,

Leslie Carlin.

Featured article

Cashing in on Local Copywriting Gigs

By Stephanie Chandler

When I began freelancing over a decade ago, I greatly enjoyed the challenge of pitching and achieving payment for writing magazine articles. But since the assignments weren’t easy to come by and patience is not one of my top virtues, I decided I’d rather target copywriting opportunities in my own backyard. 

My first step was to learn about search engine optimization (SEO) so I could attract clients to my website. That meant creating pages on my site for keyword combinations like “Sacramento copywriter” and “Sacramento freelance writer.” I also targeted a wider area with pages for “Silicon Valley copywriter” and “California freelance writer.”

I decided that I would specialize in electronic newsletters, which included writing, creating, and managing them with Constant Contact. I planned to target my favorite local day spa as my first potential client, but I couldn’t find an email address for the owner (and I was too chicken to pick up the phone). So, I typed up a letter letting him know I was a long-time customer of the spa, as well as a local copywriter and marketing expert. I said that he was missing out on business opportunities by not publishing an electronic newsletter. The day the letter arrived, he called and hired me on the spot.

I wrote and managed his electronic newsletter for $1,100 per month—a contract that went on for several years. And that client referred me to several other day spas nearby where I landed more newsletter clients at similar rates. (Hint: Day spas are used to spending big money on advertising.) 

While my newsletter business grew, I joined several local networking groups, including two women’s business groups and the Sacramento chapter of Business Networking International (BNI). Referral groups like BNI and LeTip International conduct weekly meetings where local business owners share details about the services they offer. Among the many real estate agents, insurance brokers, and life coaches, I stood out as one of the only copywriters in the area—at least the only one who was showing up to those events. 

At one of the meetings, I met a website designer. He said his greatest challenge was getting his clients to write the copy for their web pages, which caused his projects to slow to a grinding halt. “If you can write the web page copy for them, you’ll make my life so much easier.” I agreed, and he referred three clients to me that first week.

I charged around $200 per page, with a five-page minimum. The pages usually included Home, About, and several services pages. I taught clients that listing their services on individual pages with focused keyword combinations was good for their SEO. This allowed me to bring additional value to their businesses while also expanding the scope of my projects. 

I would usually meet with the clients in person or by phone, interview them for an hour or so, and request any available brochures or other marketing collateral. Because most of them didn’t want to write their copy anyway, they rarely requested many edits or revisions. After we finished the project, I would often up-sell them on electronic newsletter services.

It wasn’t long before I began attracting clients outside of the area, thanks to the SEO I’d applied to my website. Several Silicon Valley companies hired me for various copywriting projects. One company actually hired me to write a unique greeting for the company holiday card. Just two lines of text, billed at my minimum project rate ($500)! 

My copywriting business grew so quickly that by the end of my first year, I stopped attending all those local networking events because I couldn’t handle more business. A good problem to have. And aside from all the business I generated, I made a lot of local friends along the way—including many who are still part of my life years later. 

If you’re hungry for new ways to boost your writing business revenue, consider getting out in your local community. There are more business networking events than ever before. Aside from those I’ve already mentioned, check out your chambers of commerce, service groups like Rotary, and groups organized on Meetup.com. With a little effort and a dash of luck, your business could grow quickly, too.
