Pro Copywriters

Nick Brighton · 09-06-2009, 07:24 PM

Hi folks,

Naturally, I've always been interested in negotiating and setting up royalties with my clients.

Obviously, I know it relies on your credibility and ability to prove your skills. But I'd also like to know how other pro copywriters go about negotiating this kind of arrangement over a flat fee.

Do you just drop it into the quote as an option?

If the client agrees, on what terms do they agree? And ultimately, how do you physically set it up so you know you're getting your royalties as agreed?

I really appreciate any advice in advance,

Nick

Thanks Mark, I thought he probably would have! I'll check his archives.

Would these articles on my blog be of any help?

Michel advertises a great course on his blog, too, about positioning... but the link took me to a different product (one by Bob Bly).

Is the product you're creating with Angel available now, Michel? Has it been moved to a different link?

Kind regards,
