James: Do you ever feel guilty writing sales copy? Writing sales copy is noble and necessary. I think this is the thing writers don’t get when they’re thinking about freelancing. Most freelancers just give up too soon. Telling the truth is always easier and more effective than spinning a lie.

Most freelancers have enough trouble scrapping together money for the rent without having to worry about paying another couple of tens of thousands. You’re a freelancer. People want to see your portfolio, your testimonials, and your professional-looking website. Especially since no one cares about your degree. That’s right.

Your web copy can’t afford the same passive indifference. That copy is supposed to get you clients and sales. Your freelancing lifestyle depends on your copy being read. This isn’t about grabbing the first freelancer that catches your eye. Get your sales copy read.

Allow me to demonstrate in a fictitious piece of sales copy targeting my teen: “Dearest daughter of mine, Imagine it’s the end of summer and the last day of work. Well pack your web copy full of emotions that get them jumping out of bed and practically throwing their money at you. That rockstar feeling?

Written by James - 69 Comments Many freelancers have university degrees. Many freelancers don’t have to send their resumes to people anymore, so those degrees don’t see a lot of action, but they’re there, collecting dust on our walls. That fascination is one of the reasons why I’m now so interested in sales and marketing.
