Fancy yourself as a paid writer?

Read time: 2 minutes Hey Reader, You might remember the story about my assistant Lou. A lady called Lisa reached out to see if she could work with her. Well, this is only half the story. Lisa also asked if I could take her on as a new client: The problem? I wasn't taking on new clients. My hands were too full. But rather than fritter the lead away (like I usually do), I thought back to my conversation with Sara. Sara took part in one of my 30-Day Writing Challenges and made it clear she's looking for new clients. She was even willing to pay me to send clients her way. *Lightbulb goes PING in my head* So I checked with Lisa if she'd be happy to work with someone I recommend: "I would be happy to talk to Sara." Now I just had to check that Sara was game! So I opened my email and fired her a message: Would you like me to make an intro? I made the intro, Lisa and Sara started working together, and I'll receive a 10% cut of the project fee when the work is complete. Everyone wins! :) Alright, alright - where am I going with this? I typically receive 3-5 inbound PAID opportunities a month, and I can't take them all on. I'm basically sitting on a goldmine. And I want to give you an opportunity to tap into it. So, if you're a writer who's:
​Get in touch!​ If you meet the criteria above, I will:
In return, I'll ask for 10% of the cost of the first project (e.g. if you bill the client $1K, I'll take $100.) But after the first project with the client, I won't take anything else. So that's the deal :) Interested? ​Fill out this Google Form and I'll take a look at your application. But be quick! I'll be closing the form this Sunday. I hope to hear from you!

Read time: 3 minutes Hey Reader, If there's one thing I've learned over the last 6 years, it's this: Friendships matter. 90% of opportunities come to me through people I already know. But here's something you might not have considered: How do you meaningfully add fuel to your friendships so they continue to burn brightly? It's easier than you think. Let me show you. You might have met Lou before Lou worked as my virtual assistant (VA) from April 2020 to Jan 2022. She easily saved me 10+ hours...

Read time: 3 minutes Hey Reader, I'll be honest; I'm having a career identity crisis on LinkedIn. I don't know what I want to be known for. It's crept up on me this year, and I want to share how I'm working through it. I think you'll find it helpful — especially if you feel the same way. Okay, let me set the scene. After Tim Denning audited my profile (see last email), my LinkedIn has changed a lot. The challenge is figuring out what I want to be known for. On the one hand, I love what I do,...
