Re: Need more energy

It could be that you're doing TOO much. I've had to learn to take days off.

I worked so long and so hard that I developed medical problems. It was nothing for me to work 16-18 hour days. This time...

Re: How Do You Market Your Copywriting Services?

Peter Bowerman's books are great. If you write to him, he'll personally answer your e-mail.

I, too, stayed busy for a long time and neglected my own marketing. I stayed busy, busy, busy and then,...

Re: Why spelling is poor on the internet?

This issue bothers me too.

If a client pays me, it is my obligation to give him or her copy that is error-free. It amazes me how many people will return a product to the store if it does not meet...

Re: Collecting Final Payment from Client

Thanks, everyone. I have been paid.

Re: Collecting Final Payment from Client

Steve,

I've consulted an attorney who specializes in copyright law and Internet marketing cases. I don't want it to go that far, though. I'm just asking for feedback from people who have...

Re: Collecting Final Payment from Client

No, newbyr, they do not own the rights to the copy. I know a little about copyright infringement. Remember your dreaded English teacher who was a stickler against plagiarism? I've got a decade of...

Re: Collecting Final Payment from Client

I'm a little frustrated with the "just move on" advice. This isn't how the business world operates. I get a stack of bills in the mail every month from businesses who want me to pay for the services...

Re: Hopefully, this doesn't happen to the Warrior Forum... Michel Fortin's Copywriters Board closes

Janet,

I think that when the forum closed, a lot of us felt a twinge of guilt, wondering if we contributed to its downfall. I know I felt guilty when I saw the issue about monetizing the forum as...
