Been getting client requests lately.
I don't know why, exactly.
Maybe it's the whole "people want what they can't have" thing (in
my case, I am not currently taking on any client work).
But just not interested in clients right now.
Too little freedom, and too much drama.
In fact, the drama of working for copywriting clients is almost
like being Jack Bauer in "24." You're trying to do your job (within
a VERY tight deadline) and make things happen despite a plethora of
people (some with good intentions, others with bad intentions, and
some who are flat out trying to sabotage everything) working
against you.
It's not always that bad.
But it can get crazy sometimes.
And the more fingers in the pie, the worse it is.
That's why I suggest freelancers of all stripes (copywriting, or
any other) being your OWN client.
Create and sell your products.
Keep all the money.
And deal with none of the drama.
No, you may not make as much up front as you would from some pimp
daddy client... but there's no law saying you can't take a client
on while doing your own stuff, is there?
So why not get started today?
Create a product.
Start building a list.
And shoot it an email every day.
It's shocking how fast it can build from there.
For ongoing guidance (including an advanced training book) showing
you how to both write emails and ways to build a list (for free),
check out the "Email Players" newsletter.
No, it's not for everyone.
And it IS expensive.
