@aditya-sanyal Sir,

Your article has many good points to be considered. However:

1. You haven’t mentioned the title of your article. This is the first thing that catches the reader’s attention.

2. Establish your credibility and authority In this heading, for example, C (credibility) and A (authority) must be capital. Study the APA Style Guide. Also, Sub-chapters and Table of Contents should have been enclosed within single or double-quotes.

3. Write short sentences as told by the mentor. Make a point of mistakes mentioned by him and learn from them

All the best for your future endeavors!!!

Main Title:- Why experienced writers should learn client-attracting techniques

Summary: Do you have good writing skills but are not able to earn much online? Are you an experienced writer who is struggling to attract high-paying clients? Wish to put your writing skills to good use and earn a handsome part-time income? If your answer to the above-mentioned questions is Yes, then the points written below are a must-read for you.

Introduction

To succeed in today’s competitive environment and be a successful SEO executive merely having good writing skills is not enough. You need to rise above writing for individuals who pay you a pittance amount. Knowhow of attracting clients who pay well is also necessary. The reasons are elaborated below:-

  1. Build an Online Presence

In order to get work online having good writing skills are not enough. Having a holistic online presence requires regularly posting on multiple social media platforms such Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, etc. It is only then will you be able to have sufficient visibility levels online and attract good quality clients who pay handsomely. Regularity in posting quality content online is a sure shot client-attracting technique.  If a client sees that you are regular, write with clarity, intelligence and diligence then he is bound to be attracted to you. After all entrepreneurs and marketing professionals out there wish to have only the most talented and sincere personnel on their payroll.

Additionally, there are many social media gurus out there who will be teaching you how to create and upload photos, videos on different social media platforms. Hashtags are also powerful tools, by using which you will be able to categorize posts written on different platforms into one single header. Creative and clever usage of various social media platforms are a reliable and time-tested means of establishing a decent online footprint. The main reason why the need to utilize multiple platforms is being emphasised is because social media means utilizing the three senses of sight, touch, and sound to disseminate and store information.  In a nutshell, it is imperative that in addition to simple text additional means of communication are also used online for a writer to develop a fully functional online portfolio.

  1. Build your niche online-The best way to attract high paying clients

All clients wish to have articles that are factually correct, matchless in detail and clarity, and are published with regularity, without much delay. This is possible only if you are truly passionate about the content which you write and are a specialist in your field. You should try to establish your portfolio as an expert in your field. Find your calling, educate yourself, organize and connect with other like-minded peers. Read up their articles, share, like and comment on what they write. Build up your niche and establish yourself as an expert. If you have achieved this level of expertise, then you are sure to establish yourself as an authority in the field which you have chosen.

A high-paying client will want to ensure that his readers are not led astray by content that does come from an author who is not a bonafide authority. Developing in-depth knowledge about any topic is by doing hard study about it. Once you have established your niche online by studying and publishing articles about a given topic then be rest assured that clients will be attracted to you. They will come racing with projects and handsome monetary rewards.

  1. Create your own portfolio to show the world what you are capable of delivering

Another useful client-attracting technique is to develop your own portfolio of articles and show to the world what all topics interest you the most. By harnessing the power of the world wide web you will be able to showcase your writing talent to the world by putting in some added effort. The collection of articles that you create will come in handy for clients to identify your area of core competence.  Your portfolio will show the world what you are good at and will help web portals and search engines help you find and get in touch with like-minded people.

  1. Have the dream client of your choice come to you

Okay, let’s admit it at the end of we are all looking for a client who pays us on time and handsomely for the work that we give him.  This is possible only if we are able to stand out of the crowd and have a sizeable online presence where we are followed by a large number of followers.  After seeing that you are tech-savvy, clients are bound to be attracted to you. Even a lion has to run and catch its prey. Similarly, even a skilled writer needs to learn client-attracting techniques if you wish to connect with your dream client.

  1. Obtain a stable source of paid work online

Regular posting quality content online is a must for all writers. Care must be taken to ensure that the matter which you post online is unique and free from plagiarism. You can choose to write in a large variety of locations-Product descriptions on e-commerce pages, Travel, and recipe blogs. Once you have posted clear and catchy content then be rest assured that advertisers will flock to your portal and you will be having a stable source from online sources within no time.

Conclusion

In order to be successful, you need to put in consistent and regular efforts. It is my sincere hope that the points written above will motivate you further to learn more about client-attracting techniques. If you are successful in attracting clients then there is no limit to the fame and money which you can earn.

There is no point to deny that Earnest Hemingway is one of the best writers in modern history. This little book is a collection of letters he sent to his editors, friends, and other authors.

The description of the journey, the theme, the vocabulary that he described were classic.

  1. Stephen King’s ‘On Writing’

Stephen King is one and only thinker and writer. If you write or writing is your passion, so stop everything you do and get that back. The vocabulary, the simplicity, the plain words will give you an array of writing.

Introduction

Running is a good exercise and a great stress buster. Start your day with a good and healthy running habit. It is important to maintain every day, but impossible things to do. Those who are very focused on their exercise and healthy habit, they can easily be managed. To keep you fit healthy and energetic is not a tough thing. If you get up early and take this challenge as seriously, so can you. But this is what daily exercise has done for me:

  • It can cure your lower back problems
  • It will give you more confidence
  • It will make you less stressful
  • It will provide you tons of ideas
  • It will make you look fit

Running every day is easier said than done, so here are 8 lessons I learned that can help you build this habit.

Grow your healthy habits. If you feel you will run for 15 minutes, you can run more than that. Mind-set and confidence both are two important aspects to do any work. It can be easy to run fast and too long in the beginning. It is quite common. Do your best to resist the temptation to run fast. 

  1. Find a Schedule That Suits you

We know we are living in a competitive world and everybody is busy with their schedule. In our current lifestyle, we are not much focused and disciplined. To fix your schedule as per your rising. Fix your get up at 5 am and Try different things and stick to what works best for you. Daily 30 minutes running habit will give a lot of energy and value to your schedule. When exercise becomes an integral part of your day and you feel weird if you don’t go for a run, you are building the habit.

  1. Start Walking

The best way to start a running habit is walking. Many people say, ‘I am going to run 3 miles every single day. If you are completely out of shape, start walking 15 minutes a day, in your second week, go out for 20 minutes. Keep increasing your daily walking distance with small increments until you reach 45 minutes a day.

If you are in slightly better shape, try running and walking. Run 5 minutes and walk 30 minutes.

When you start, the point is to focus on the habit, so you don’t want to worry about strict running plans.

Tell yourself that you’re creating a habit, not a marathon-ready body. Try to improve your shape just a little bit every day. 

  1. Rest Before you get Tired

Start your walk daily and continue until or unless the aching will make you feel pain, and then you take some rest. Even when you’re more advanced, always rest before you get tired. You don’t have to run daily from the start. Focus on your work and you will get motivated through your workout. Exercise and workout will provide you plenty of breathing inhale and exhale and oxygen saturation to supply sufficient air in your body. Our body will keep fit and healthy. 

  1. Purchase 2 Pairs of Running Shoes

Use 2 pairs of running shoes. It will keep your legs smart and trendy to run. Branded pair of shoes will give you a comfortable outfit and running capabilities. 

If you are serious about running every day, you need the gear to support that habit. 

People are very much health-conscious nowadays. They are paying money for the gym and fitness centre. How much is a gym membership? I don’t get that person try to save money on running gear. They are trying to keep fit and fine whatever money they are paying or wasting. The proper ingredients are important for proper cooking, likewise proper branded shoes and costumes are important for gym and fitness. You will get exact positivity and enthusiasm to do that. 

  1. Love and Motivation

Suppose, you love reading books and you will read every day. Those who like running exercise, they will follow that. So love and motivation is the only important factor to get inspiration from every work. Running is a fantastic sport that never bores you. There are unlimited ways you can train, and there are countless places on earth you can run. The possibilities are endless, and so is the road ahead of you. 

  1. Get Healthier and Eat Healthy Food Habit

Healthy food habits and plenty of sleep will push you into running as a regular occurrence. This works for two reasons. 

First, you’re getting healthier by sleeping more and by switching dinner to a big salad instead of a big pizza, and as you start to feel better in general, it is easier to log miles. Second, those healthy habits tend to start a ‘cascade effect,’ so as you start to make positive changes in one area of your life; it is easier to do the same in others.

  1. Training Smarter and Trendier

Most famous runners start a routine, if they somehow injure or feel sick and it will make their career an uncertain way, they need to consult with a good consultant or doctor for the further step. If you feel you need a consultation with a doctor, a physiotherapist, or a nutritionist if you have dealt with any issue. It could also mean signing up for a weekly yoga class or a healthy meal delivery service and buying a foam roller so you can work out your sore quads while watching Netflix.

7 Unique Tips To Become A Quality Writer

         It is not important to write pages and pages of content. To attract and retain the readers one needs to write quality content. Do you agree with me? Then, go on and read the seven unique steps to become a quality writer.

Introduction:

                     Cambridge dictionary defines Quality as a high degree of excellence. When it comes to writing, it is defined as the writing that glues the readers to it. The book or the blog post should make readers crave for the next one. An author can make this possible only by crafting a qualitative work.

The following are the seven steps to achieve such quality:

  1. Strengthen your basics

 

          Before making the readers crave your next article eagerly, you should make them complete your current article first. Strengthening the foundation helps you build the next level of skill easily and efficiently. So, it is important to brush your basics of writing. Ensure adhering to the rules strictly to avoid the decline in your reader and client’s count. The basics of writing include:

 

  1. Grammar
  2. Spellings
  3. Avoiding slang language
  4. Subject-verb agreement
  5. Logical structuring of the sentence
  6. Poor organization of the content
  7. Avoiding Plagiarism

 

  1. Read and free-write daily

 

        It is a well-known saying that practice makes a man perfect. If you want to become a quality writer, you need to practice it daily. If you are not getting topics, don’t worry. Practice free-writing. Write whatever comes to your mind but write for sure.  They can be anything from your personal experiences or about a product. This practice can help you improve on the art of writing. But how do you get ideas to write? The answer is ‘read daily’.

 

           It is as important to read daily as it is to write. For organizing your content in a meaningful and attractive way, you require ideas. Reading daily helps you to get those. Also, you can actually know more about writing by proofreading others’ articles. The works of great writers can help you improve your vocabulary, grammar, sentence structuring, and many more skills.

 

  1. Adopt a unique style

 

        In this world of imitation, anything that is original is a real gem. If your work is original and unique, then the reader enjoys your writing irrespective of the content.  Writers like J.K.Rowling, Stephen King have won so many readers by casting a spell on them with their unique style.

Some of the tips which can help you get your unique writing style are:

 

  1. Select your niche and micro-niche. Your area of interest or expertise should ideally be your niche
  2. Listen to your mind’s voice. If you can master the skill of replicating your ideas on the paper exactly the same as how your mind speaks, then presenting a unique style comes out as a by-product of that skill

 

  1. Join a community of writers

 

        Excellence is an amalgamation of so many desirable attributes. No one individual can alone have the gift of all these attributes. Joining a community of dedicated and quality writers who are aspiring to improve their writing skills is the best step. This can help you find your weak spots and improve upon those. Also, you can get more insights from different writers on your work. Distinct perspectives from the community members will make you an all-rounder.

 

       Select a community which is dedicated and serious about their goals. Choosing a lethargic and inactive one will make you more harm than good. Select a member who will give you genuine feedback and keep on practicing by offering your work to them for proofreading.

 

  1. Focus on solving the reader’s problem

 

         Anybody gets interested in your work only if it is useful to them. If you are not solving the readers’ problem, they do not care how much knowledge you give them. They read to get some value out of your article or book.

 

         You can be of more value to the reader by going through the below steps:

 

  1. Select the target audience
  2. Find out the common problem this specific category of audience face
  3. Research about this problem
  4. Carve out a solution for this problem
  5. Present this solution to your reader in a unique way
  6. Do not just give the solution. Help them make an action plan to solve it.

 

  1. Be your own critique

 

          It is important that you get satisfied with your work before you make the reader satisfy. Do not hesitate to become your own critique. A successful quality writer should have two personalities within him – one is of a creative author and another one is of a ruthless critique. You can do that in the following ways:

 

  1. List down the requirements of a quality article in all the three levels – basic, intermediate, and advanced
  2. An article must be proofread at least 3 times – once for checking the conformity to basic level requirements, and the other two times for intermediate and advanced level requirements respectively
  3. Edit the article based on the observations of the proofreading

 

  1. Content designing

 

         After all, content is the king. The reader chooses to start reading your article based on the content you provide. A reader decides to spend his precious time reading an article that is logically structured and pleasantly presented.  The following tips can help you present irresistible content to the reader:

 

  1. Write to the point. Deviating frequently from the main point will irritate the reader and make him leave
  2. Take care of font style, font size, formatting, and other basics
  3. Use images to convey the message only if necessary

 

  1. Bonus tip

 

       It is the fear of failure that damages your morale more than the failure itself. To overcome this fear, participate in as many writing contests as possible. Select the contests which will enhance your confidence and skill. The more intense the competition is the more benefit you get from it.

Conclusion

              Writing, like painting and sculpturing, is a form of art. Mastering this art requires dedication, the positive reception of feedback, practice, and improvement upon the mistakes. You can win many readers and clients if you remember one sentence – “Quality wins over quantity”. There are many more tips to become a quality and a successful writer.

 3 Reasons for Creating an ‘Author Brand’ To Be a Successful writer

 

Are you an aspiring writer struggling with the issue of lack of readers for your work? Are you frustrated with the very few likes and minimum comments that you are getting on your recent article? Do you ever wonder how long you need to continue publishing your works with literally no readers? If you can relate to all the above challenges, then it is because you do not have an ‘author brand’.

 

Introduction:

Building an author’s brand is very important in the modern world of communication for being successful. It is similar to a certificate to testify the authenticity of your thoughts or the information you provide to humanity. Going forward, we will see the important reasons for creating an author brand to become a successful writer.

You are not the one and only writer in this world. You are one of the thousands and lakhs of writers out there waiting for a chance to make an impact with their work. But, we hardly remember 10 names of successful writers. It is because these writers have created a brand value of their own and are maintaining it. You will know what to expect from their books the second you pick it up off the shelf as much as you know what to expect the second you enter a movie theatre playing a Christopher Nolan’s movie.

           

So, let us see the important reasons for creating an author brand of your own if you want to be a successful writer.

  1. To reach more and more portion of the humanity

 

The success of an author is measured by the extent of humanity he touched with his work. The localized impact is a thing of the past now. Thanks to globalization, we can read the great works of Dale Carnegie and Napoleon Hill in our local languages. Ever wonder why we are able to read only the works of a few global authors in our local languages?

 

The answer lies in the title of this article. Because there is a brand attached to their names and to their works. They have become famous all over the world not because we have read their works but the other way around. We are reading their works because they are famous. First, they introduce themselves to us through their works. Then they get our acceptance and become a household name. Then through the publicity of the readers, they become a brand. The brand is nothing but the acceptance of the reader.

 

At this stage, the brand-impact cycle begins. As the brand value of the author improves then their scope of impact expands and as their scope of impact expands, their brand value increases. As they reach this stage, reaching out to more and more people will be a cakewalk.

 

  1. To Spread awareness and authentic information

 

Authenticity is a rare gem nowadays. As an author, it will be challenging for you, if the reader has minimum trust in the piece of information you provide. Building a brand clears this doubt from the reader’s mind and brings in the ‘trust factor in the relationship. Any relationship, even an author-reader relation will flourish on trust and trust alone.

 

Brand helps you build this bridge of trust between you and the reader. Once you reached every corner of the globe and built trust with the reader, then you can use that brand to create awareness through your writings.  Many major social movements of the world have their origin of inspiration from the books. Author branding can help you in creating a trust of the people and thereby remarkable movements. If your brand value is good, then you will be contacted by many organizations, government institutions to spread messages to the public on their behalf.

 

  1. To monetize your work

 

Any passion, if not monetized, cannot be pursued for a long time. Everyone needs money for their work. Branding makes your work easier to stabilize your career.

 

For an author, earning is directly proportional to the number of copies of his work that get sold. The number of copies that get sold depends on how the reach of the author into the public is and how well the reader trusts the author. An author brand helps the author get more reach, trust, and thereby more earnings.

 

A successful brand can help you get a prestigious publishing house at your doorstep and thereby a good royalty to your work. Apart from book sales, you can monetize your brand by being an ambassador for other brands, promoting social media accounts, interviews, and many more.

 

Conclusion:

 

A writer creates his work to satisfy his hunger for art. But a successful author creates his work to influence the world around him. He grows in his career and builds trust among the readers. Even if you give the same message as another author whose brand value is more, then the reader tends to listen to his message rather than yours.

Are you wondering how to create a brand? Then, please leave your comments down here. We will contact you immediately.

      Summary:

      A perfectly written ad copy can generate enormous profits for any business. Learn the secret tips to write compelling copy known only to a handful of marketers.

      Introduction:

      Copywriting is the art and science of creating content for marketing or advertising purposes. It is about writing creative, audience-friendly, and result-driven content.It involves understanding human psychology and writing an ad copy that convinces readers to take immediate action. Being one of the highest paid skills in the writing industry, it is a technique that every writer wants to master. Though it is not easy, with proper training and industry experience, you can master this technique. Let us discuss 8 secret tips that will help you understand the art and science of writing compelling copies:

  1. Identify your Target Audience : 

       Before you start to write, research to who you want to sell your product or service.It is the most crucial step for any business that wants to achieve success with its marketing campaign. You may define your target audience based on the factors such as age, gender, interests, purchasing power, demographics, problems they are facing,etc. Now create personalized content to target your ideal customer using the attention, interest, desire, and action model.

  1. Write Specific Headlines which are customer-focused:

       Grab your reader’s attention with the first headline or the first sentence of your copy. The headlines and titles should focus on the customer pain point. Make use of powerful words which will showcase how your product/service help to solve the pain point of your reader.

       Remember, sales copies aren’t just any other write-up.They are meant to drive a specific action from your target audience.The idea is to grab his attention to read the first sentence which in turn allows him to read the next sentence and so on.

        For example: If you are selling a nutritional product, you should grab your reader’s attention with a headline which describes the nutritional needs of a young adult. And try every effort to keep them hooked to read the next sentence by focusing on one single pain point.

  1. Use stories to appeal your target audience and keep them engaged:

        Use words that are simple, concise yet engaging with your reader. Using simple conversational style of writing or short sentences will help in reading. Your reader may not get interested in reading the whole content if there are bigger sentences.

        Easy trick is to use the help of a story which is engaging to the reader. It builds interest in your brand and thereby,on your product and its services.

        For instance, you can explain on how the idea of your nutritional product was born or what propelled you to research on nutritional needs and work on the product? Stories will always remain a great way to bond with your audience. They are memorable too.

  1. List down the benefits of the Product

         The product’s features and benefits should be listed in highlights to catch the attention of your audience. Every benefit of your product should work as a solution to the problem the target reader is experiencing. Though the product’s quality cannot be fully explained to your reader, you could help your reader by explaining or linking the quality of your product with something that they are already aware of. Giving some sort of analogies will play in a good role in their minds to link themselves to something they already know.

  1. Persuade your reader

         Anticipate the rejections from your reader beforehand. Make a plan on how to overcome those objections one by one. Make sure you address each potential ‘No’ by re-assuring them with the alternatives you have come up with. In that way, you are overcoming the mind blocks of the reader about the service/product. Persuade your reader with solutions that how apt is your product for their needs. You can make them imagine how they would feel when they actually start using the product.

  1. Be Empathetic

          Despite our efforts, the reader sometimes may not be interested to take action. Show words of care and empathy towards your audience. Empathy towards your target customer will make them connect with your service. Explain them how your services can make their life easier for them. This way the reader may understand that you are connecting with him/her in giving a genuine solution.

  1. Provide Stats and Reviews:

           Show your results and customer reviews of the product/service to your readers in your copy and it will work wonders.. This technique is persuasive as it makes the reader understand from a customer point of view and make the move forward.

  1. Use a Strong and a compelling CTA

           Choosing a goal before even writing a copy will help you to compel the reader on what action he/she needs to perform. Call to actions should stand out and make your reader take the action step. i.e. purchasing your product, signing up for a subscription etc. Ensure the usage of vivid words to trigger the reader to take action. Also, use a font size to highlight the call to action words.

      Conclusion:

           Copywriting is mostly art combined with science to make your brand get more prospects. Learning this skill requires patience and more writing. The Secrets behind carving out a compelling copy involves research and understanding the industry trends.

           Try incorporating the above tips the next time you are writing a copy and get ahead with your writing journey.

         Few think of it as an added source of income, a flexible income that is, as it gives them a new financial independence but over the course of time, these earnings have the chance to become a primary source of income.

  1. Work from anywhere

         According to a survey done in America in 2019 on freelancing, two-thirds of freelance writers enjoyed the fact that they get to work irrespective of any location and any time of the day.

         Several freelancers like the fact that they can work from anywhere. Just sit on a corner from the comfort of your home, or in a nearby restaurant sipping your coffee or just sit near a sea shore listening to the waves. Work atmosphere becomes your comfort zone.

         It actually gives the freedom to cut down on the travel hours and the expenses too. It is just that you will require a computer/laptop and a reliable internet connection to work from anywhere as a freelance writer. In fact, you get those extra bonus hours to invest for any productive work.

  1. Work for diverse projects

         Freelance writers do not have to restrict themselves to one particular project or just work in-house for one client. You have the freedom to choose the project/client you want to work with and most of the times; you can work on a variety of projects simultaneously.  

         This gives you a powerful edge as a writer as you get to broaden your experience of working with different clients and build a solid portfolio of clients. Your work will no more be a chore and would only become more meaningful and make you feel motivated to get your hands on to the next. Not to forget, you are creating several sources of income too.

  1. Self-employment

         As a freelance writer, the power and control of your employment lies completely in your hands. The biggest advantage is that you are the only responsible person in your writing journey and financial success.

          Though there are certain cons with being self-employed like managing your taxes on your own, inconsistent income during your initial days, freelancers do not have to worry about being fired or rely just on a monthly pay check from your employer.  They can take up multiple projects and earn

  1. Work life balance

         A freelance writer has the benefit of ditching the 9 to 5 work schedule and can choose to work either part-time, full-time or take a break for a week and not work at all.

         As a freelance writer, you have the benefit of balancing your life with work as you wish. The amount of hours you want to put in is only up to you and only you. Many freelancers feel that they are not pressurized for difficult deadlines or unpredictable lifestyles. Many strive to create a work life balance in a day job which often does not materialize as day jobs are totally dependent on daily deadlines and the mandatory hours.

Conclusion:

          The freelance gig economy is only growing day by day. During the times of recession, freelancers are said to have minimal impact on their career with absolutely no job losses or pay cuts. Though there are people who still want to work in their traditional 9 to 5 work schedule, working professionally as a freelance writer can be a rewarding experience.

   If you are motivated enough and find these advantages are a good match for your future freelance career, now is the time to start your freelance writing journey. If you would like to add, please share your thoughts on your freelance journey in the comments below.
