A reaction to Monday's "Burn Notice" email...



"Ben I was intrigued by your 'Michael Westin' business model. Would

love to be a freelance copywriter while marketing my own products

too but I don't know where to begin getting clients. Thoughts?"



It's a good question.



No, freelancing isn't everyone's cup of tea.



But in a screwy economy it can put food on the table if everything

else goes to hell in your business.



As for thoughts on getting clients?



Yeah.



Take Earl Nightingale's advice:



"Look around at whatever

everyone else is doing

and do the exact opposite..."



No joke.



Most freelancers haven't clue what they're doing.



They don't know how to sell.



And they struggle BIG time.



That's why this week I decided to focus on helping people get

clients (whether freelance copywriters or any other kind of

service provider) and start 2013 off right with Daniel Levis's free

webinar last night for coaches, consultants and freelancers.



Wait a minute...



What????



You missed it???



Worry ye not.



It'll be up for the next couple days at:



http://www.daniellevis.com/QILsettle_replay.html



(My affiliate link)



But you can't dawdle.



This sucker comes down in a couple days.



After that?



Well, you will have missed out.



Ben Settle



P.S. Remember, if you buy from my affiliate link I'll send you

those two MP3 trainings on how to get booked solid with clients.

(And virtually ALL of it applies to coaches & consultants, too.)



Tips include:



* How to get paid top fees for your services -- even if you're

brand spanking new.



* How to get 100% of your fees upfront. (World class copywriter

Peter Stone uses this "trick" all the time. Now you can, too.)



* How to get clients even if you have no experience.



* Why copywriting is the least important skill you need in order to

get booked solid with clients.



* How to get started if don't know a soul in business now.



* Where to find clients who are already looking for YOU.



* A secret way to use your local library to find dozens of high

paying direct response copywriting clients in a single afternoon.



* How to "position" yourself as an expert, high-value copywriter,

even if you just hung up your shingle yesterday.



* Why having a portfolio of your strongest samples can actually

HURT your chances of getting freelance assignments.



* How to collect testimonials if you haven't done any "real"

jobs yet.



* Why you must NEVER "optimize" a website selling your copywriting

services.



* The two best (and easiest) ways to get paying clients almost

overnight.



* Bob Bly's "big secret" to getting booked solid with paying

copywriting clients.



* How to instanly position yourself as an "expert copywriter" --

even if you're just starting out, with no name recognition,

contacts or track record.



* How to know what clients are willing to pay BEFORE talking to

them.



* How to make money even from clients who don't hire you.



* And a whole lot more.



Again, here's how to get these bonuses:



1. Listen to the webinar replay at:



http://www.daniellevis.com/QILsettle_replay.html



(that's my affiliate link)



2. If you buy the product Daniel sells, I'll send you the goodies

above.

Yes, it's true.



Rattling off all those "mouth watering" benefits can hurt your

chances of landing new clients (and this goes for ANY kind of

client -- coaching, consulting, freelancing, yada yada yada). I

know this goes against established goo-roo orthodoxy, but I

speaketh the truth about this.



Prove it, you say?



OK, take my early misadventures for example.



Back when I was first trying to get copywriting clients, I would

come out "swinging" with would-be clients on the phone trying to

sell my services.



I'd pour them benefits on THICK.



I'd trumpet my guarantees.



Make big claims.



And ooooooze benefits all over the place.



The result?



I'd rarely ever get the gig.



"Uhm, we'll get back to you, thanks..."



Ouch.



But I don't blame them at all.



Pitching those benefits was stoopid.



All they did was create MORE objections.



Then one day, I changed my tune and started asking questions,

instead of pitching benefits. Instead of saying, "My copywriting

can increase your sales by 50%!" I asked things like, "how

are you guys doing with sales, getting good response?" or

"What makes you think I'm the right guy for this job?"



And then I just let them talk.



The difference in results was night and day.



And it was just basic salesmanship.



No fancy "ninja" marketing tricks.



No psychological joint manipulations or "choke holds" necessary.



And guess what?



This is the type of information Daniel Levis is teaching tonight on

the webinar I'm hosting for him.



It's called:



"The 7 Hell-Fire Commandments

of Internet Riches -- And the Systems That

Support Them"



It's 100% free to attend.



And it should be a wild ride (to say the least).



Plus, if you register with my affiliate link at:



http://www.daniellevis.com/QIL_settle



... and if you buy the product Daniel is offering at the end...

I'll give you two advanced MP3 trainings about how to get booked

solid with paying freelancing or coaching clients (this info works

for most any kind of service) in the next 30 days or less.



It's not as complicated as it may seem.



And these secrets work even if you're brand new.



Here's where to register:



http://www.daniellevis.com/QIL_settle



(This is my affiliate link)



Be there or be nowhere...

Burping along with my coaching & freelancing tips this week...



Today's is a real doozy.



And, it's a pity most will brush today's tip off since it's not a

"bright shiny object" or anything like that.



But, it CAN get you clients.



And it can also impress the shizzit out of the ones you have now.



Plus, it can make you the ONLY person people want to hire.



Anyway, what's the big tip?



Punctuality, baby.



Sounds boring, doesn't it?



Mayhaps it does.



But if you read Dan Kennedy's magnificent "No BS Time Management"

book he makes a brilliant case for the power of punctuality.

Specifically, how people are already (even if subconsciously)

"sizing" you up by your punctuality (or lack thereof). And how

being punctual gives you a lot of power in a world full of

undisciplined wannabes who can't be bothered by such trivial

nonsense as doing WHAT they say they'll do, WHEN they say they'll

do it.



Scoff if you must.



But I've found this to be 100% true.



You stick out like a glowing thumb respecting people's time.



Especially since most people don't.



Many times, people are even purposely late or miss deadlines to

show they are in control or whatever.



Dumb.



Anyway, what's the bottom line?



If you want clients who love and rave about you, be punctual.



It truly separates the men from the boyz.



Also, a reminder:



Tomorrow I'm hosting a webinar for my colleague (and master at

building 6-figure coaching & freelancing businesses) Daniel Levis.



It's called:



"The 7 Hell-Fire Commandments

of Internet Riches -- And the Systems That

Support Them"



Sign up with my affiliate link at:



http://www.daniellevis.com/QIL_settle



... and I'll give you two advanced trainings on getting

copywriting clients you can normally only get from my $297

Copywriting Grab Bag product.

But virtually ALL of it applies to coaches & consultants, too.



Like, for example:



* How to get paid top fees for your services -- even if you're

brand spanking new.



* How to get 100% of your fees upfront. (World class copywriter

You don't have to buy anything.



Daniel is giving some powerful tips away you can use (immediately),

whether you buy anything or not.





OK, that's it for today.



Laters...

Tuesday, 1 January 2013

The magic question is asked over and over by coaches, consultants

and freelancers...



"Ben, how can I build a thriving business

in this whacky economy when no clients

want to spend money?"



It's a great question, too.



And very timely.



Especially since, in a screwy economy like this having clients can

put food on the table if everything else goes all to hell in your

business.



So, maybe this'll help:



Ever hear the term "pay yourself first"?



It's an extremely wise wealth-building principle to live by.



And it's also a wise CLIENT building principle, too.



Here's what I mean:



Back when I did client work, no matter how dire the deadline... no

matter how many impatient client calls snuck through... no matter

how stark raving frustrated the client would get... the first hour

of every day belonged to me.



For MY personal projects.



For MY long term financial security.



And for MY business.



Oh... how some clients would weep & gnash their teeth!



I'd drive some clients crazy because I'd refuse all phone calls and

ignore all their emails until 10 or 11 am my time (which was

afternoon their time if they were on the east coast), because I was

busy doing my stuff first every day.



Did this ever cost me business?



Ever get me "fired"?



Or ever put me in hot water?



Never.



Not once.



In fact, it got me MORE business.



It sent a strong signal that I control my business.



That they'd respect my time or find someone else.



And that while I do what I say I'll do (when I'll say I do it), I

won't be nagged into living by someone else's erratic schedule or

mid-afternoon brain farts.



In other words...



They knew I didn't "need" them.



And so, in a weird way, I was MORE valuable.



(Who really wants a pushover freelancer or consultant?)



More:



I was building my own side income streams along the way, which I

believe every coach, consultant or freelancer should be doing now

more than ever. This further reduced any neediness and, thus, the

likelihood of getting trapped into letting someone else's crisis

become mine.



Anyway, what's the moral of the story?



Pay yourself first, my friend.



The first hour belongs to YOU.



Doing so will bring you more financial security.



Better clients.



And less headaches.



By the way...



I'm going to be talking about this a lot over the next few days,

and I'm going to do it for two reasons:



1.) It's mucho important



(Especially with this crazy economy)



2.) I'm hosting a webinar about this Thursday for Daniel Levis.



The webinar is titled:



"The 7 Hell-Fire Commandments

of Internet Riches -- And the Systems That

Support Them"



It's 100% free to attend.



And Daniel Levis ("the man" at building coaching or freelancing

businesses -- it's one of his specialities) is giving away some

cool tips (you can USE right away) for building your business.



Yes, there will be something for sale at the end.



That goes without saying.



So if you think pitches are the devil, don't bother.



In fact, don't bother being in business at all.



And before you ask...



You'll still get some great (usable!) tips either way.



(Whether you buy or not.)



Plus...



If you register for the webinar with my affiliate link below

and purchase the product Daniel offers at the end, I'll send you

two extremely valuable lessons on getting clients you can normally

only get by purchasing my $297 Copywriting Grab Bag product.



One of the trainings is by Ryan Healy.



And the other by John Anghelache.



Ryan has gotten well over 60 clients in the past few years (I don't

know anyone else who even comes close to that track record...) and

John has used his unique client-acquisition skillz to nab all kinds

of major league clients (including Michel Fortin, Yanik Silver,

Gary Halbert, Joe Vitale and more...)



Both trainings are 100% hardcore "how to" info.



And can show you how to build your business lickety split.



(Whether you're a freelancer, coach, consultant, etc).



Anyway, here's my naked affiliate link:



http://www.daniellevis.com/QIL_settle



See ya Thursday.
