oxford comma 在 張堅庭頻道 Facebook 的精選貼文
oxford comma 在 Dan Lok Facebook 的最佳貼文
Everyone says you need to be a good writer to get paid well.
They think knowing how to use an Oxford comma or getting an English degree is the difference between a high salary and entry-level pay as a writer.
How ridiculous is that?
I’m here to break that myth.
I’m a college drop out.
English is my second language. People still say I speak like Jackie Chan.
And trust me, my English skills were far worse a few years ago than they are now.
So naturally as a writer who’s trying to make money based on my writing skill I had a hard time.
Now, what would people tell me to do so I can earn more as a writer?
Go to school, right?
Get an English degree.
But I knew there had to be a faster way than going to school.
I thought to myself, “What would it take for me to make more by writing even if I suck at it?”
And that question changed everything for me.
I realized that the reason I was being paid so little is because I was competing on experience and skill, rather than on results.
What if I could make clients money with my writing?
What if I could write blog articles that help my client get their message in front of more people?
Who cares if I’m not the best writer if I could help my client make money?
If I could make just $1,000 for my client by writing an article, wouldn’t they be happy to pay me $100 for it?
The path that these questions took me on lead me to where I am today.
I struggled to get clients for some time.
I felt like a complete failure and a loser because I couldn’t support my mom for everything she did for me.
She came to this country with no skills, she couldn’t be hired, and she didn’t know much English. She sacrificed everything to take care of me - even after the divorce.
So it was up to me to be the man of the house and finally take care of my mom.
It wasn’t easy.
I did a lot of cold calling.
Faced a ton of rejections.
And lost a lot of money making stupid mistakes (which I hope to share with you soon so you don’t make similar errors).
Once I started getting into the groove, I was able to earn 6 figures in my early twenties as a writer.
And I wasn’t working myself to the bone like you hear most highly paid writers do.
I was spending the time I now have with my mom to provide for her and support her after all she sacrificed for me.
So what’s the moral of this story?
Pursue writing gigs that make clients money so you no longer get paid based on skill.
Instead, you get paid based on results (or money) you bring for your client.
A good place to start could be writing brochures, blog articles, billboards, flyers, and more.
Why not go to one of your local bakeries, restaurants, or theatres and offer to write up some brochures and flyers for them?
If you could help them get more customers, don’t you think they’ll be happy to share some of their earnings with you?
Give results. Get paid.
By the way, did you know that there are 4 lucrative writing gigs that all clients need and are willing to pay you predictable, recurring retainers for?
If you want to know more, type the codeword “gigs” below and I’ll send you my new free on-demand training to you personally.
