I went from 0-100k+ with freelance writing in two years. My job is to help you do the same. I offer digital templates, printable starter kits, and ad-free content. Check out my posts below.
Hello Reader,
Let's get to the meat of the matter! Last week I wrote about why it makes sense to go after low-paying writing jobs sometimes. (If you missed it, you can catch it here.)
This week I want to share four places where I got gigs, and how much they paid me where applicable.
A very quiet gem no one seems to talk about. Make a free account, hit "Job postings," filter by "Remote" on the left hand side and look for a solid-looking gig.
They pay between 5-10c per word for blog posts, ebooks, and web copy on any number of subjects.
A Slack group and community for writers and freelancers. Has a sweet job board.
I had a pitch accepted by Business Insider after following Stephanie Lee's "Pitch Like a PRO" framework (video here). I got dozens of connection requests as well as messages requesting my services on LinkedIn.
As you read this, I am celebrating my bachelorette week before my wedding! Long-time email readers will know that I legally married my husband Jan 2020, so this wedding is more of a happily-ever-after celebration. I'm still going to be wearing a white dress though.
I'm going to be extremely out of office until June 10th, so you won't hear from me until then.
Best,
Zulie

Around this time last year, I was getting fed up and annoyed with this one piece of advice I was seeing repeated everywhere: "You need to be on [insert platform]!" Insert platform was sometimes LinkedIn, sometimes TikTok, sometimes a newer platform like Threads. So I opened up my newsletter...
