I don't know about you, but I can be a very trusting person...to the point where it's bad for my health and my business!

Have you ever gotten sucked into a business opportunity or working alongside a client, who promises the world, but never delivers?

I sure have...
And recently too!

So here are some tips to help you avoid those opportunities and those clients:

1. Ask for 1/2 your fee up front. This might not be exactly what the client wants...

I sometimes pass opportunities along to other copywriters.

For instance, right now I have a client who's looking for a third copywriter. He's looking for someone with proven copywriting skills and experience in the financial/investment niche.

If that sounds like something you're interested in, let's talk.

And even if it doesn't, you're welcome to add your name to my list for any other opportunities that come along.

Just send me:

My question for you today is: does your business run on clients or customers? The difference is that a customer is somebody who buys from you once, that is the only relationship you have with that person. This was my marketing strategy for years. Launch a product, they pay, and then I never speak to them again. You should not market that way. You need to blur the line between a client and a customer and never stop selling to them.

After people buy from you, get them on a mailing list...
