How to Start Freelance Writing in 2023 (no experience required, work part-time remotely)

Since this is more about copywriting, quick question - How did you learn copywriting from? How can a beginner figure out what form of copy should one write? I have been struggling to even get blog writing projects since last 16 months. All I've had is just one Upwork project. Had 5 star rating and great review but phew no second client so far in months. Even Facebook groups seem to have become a race to the bottom. Therefore please could you help. Thanks, Colleen.

Im wanting to get into this with no experience and went to write Spec peices (though call them Mock Articles) to have something....glad to hear thats a valid option for beginners

Girl, your opening statement was all me!! You were talking to me LOL. I NEED TO STOP RESEARCHING and get started. 🎉😊

There just something about you that i really like your personality.. I subscribe to your channel on the first video i watched. Also im interested to learn more about how to write for the beauty industry.

Great tips and you bring a lot of humour to the industry! 😄

This video summed up a whole lot! ❤ Thank you so much!

LMAO didn't know what lotion was. thanks for this video! very helpful

How to get started with no portfolio

The ultimate guide! 🚀💛

hi colleen, i love your content!
i’m still trying to choose my niche and i’m thinking self-care because i’m super interested in spirituality, mental health, healthy habits and productivity but im not sure if that’s specific enough, (i would write for entertainment and learning purposes.)

“Kirkland Brand Taylor Swift” that’s pretty funny… good copywriting 🤔😆

So many established freelancers recommend cold pitching for people just starting out (I've even used your template for it), but I've seen no results from it. I'm sure I'm not the only person who hits this roadblock, though I wish it was easier to figure out what I'm missing lol. I wasn't expecting success immediately, but I was expecting maybe a response or two -- yet I got nothing positive and only 1-2 nos. Love your videos & resources though, so I'll definitely have to look through them again to see if there's something I'm not doing quite right!

So I listen to you while I crochet. Writing for a living has been my dream since my early 20s but I could never make it work. When you said to search your niche and "write for us" I dropped everything and did that. I got many hits! My niche is mental health/ drug and alcohol and I'm a Certified Recovery Specialist. I've been working in the field for 5 years but dont hold a degree. Im working on a creative writing degree. Do you recommend I continue a degree in my niche or with creative writing? Does it matter?

This video was perfection. Incredibly informative and funny

What do you think about the mental health and wellness industry for copywriting? Potential clients could be therapists or psychologists looking for content/copy to promote their service or educate potential patients/people? I’m not sure :/ but I am passionate about mental health

I'm one of the crazies that got super excited in class when the teacher said we had to write a 10-page essay for our final, lol

You're so right about it being triggering. Why the hell would anyone pay me for this....? But yeah, do it anyway.

what do you think about completely AI generated but obviously edited and optimized for SEO content, is there any opportunity for that, and how much to charge for that?
