Copywriting for free again!!!

Mubarak Waseem · 09-23-2008, 01:32 PM

Hey!

Im a newbie copywriter, but have been commended on some of my work (eBooks, websites ect)

Im looking to build up a portfolio atm, so if you have any small-medium sized copywriting tasks let me know by PM or reply and ill get back to you ASAP

You do not have to pay me unless you want to keep my stuff!!

i understand that it is hard to get into copywriting so heres the deal:

you give me the info on whats to be done. We agree on a fee. ( im trying to be as cheap as possible at the moment!!)

you ONLY pay me if you LOVE what you see, otherwise, no fee nescessary!!

That way you dont need have to deal with the risk of hiring a newbie, and I know if what i write just isnt up to scratch.

PM or reply if interested!!

Thanks

Saq3m it's not hard to break into the type of copywriting you're talking about at all.

Post a WSO with a decent sample or two and you'll likely get more than enough paid work to keep you busy.

You said you've "been commended" for ebooks (plural) and websites (plural) which would indicate you have at least 4 samples you could show.

Kyle Tully is right. You do have at least 4 samples of your work.

And if it's samples you need, just pick a product and write copy for it. Hone it till it glows - then use it as a sample of your writing. This is a great way to practice your copywriting skills and to get your work examples at the same time.

An added bonus - the more you "practice", the easier it becomes. And the more you discover your own copywriting "voice".

For example, I wrote a practice sales letter for a litter of dachshund puppies that our dog had. Several people wanted to buy one of the l'il cuties. Only one hitch - our dachshund was spayed before we got her! That's right, no puppies. Just good writing.

This could possibly make or break you. Keep your writing hand in good order so when you do get clients, you know exactly what to do.

Hope this helps,
Dot

	Thought About Offline Consulting? Fiona - $5,500 + $600/m 1st Week... Anthony - $7k + $594/m... Liz - $12k 1st Month... Rob - $7k + $800/ 1st Month... Scott - $45,000 in 3m... 20/yo Jock 6-Figure Client 2nd Month Don't you deserve the same unfair advantage?
