When you offer your services as a freelance writer to prospective clients do you give them reasons to choose you? There are plenty of writers out there who are probably better than you and there are writers who work cheaper than you and in a nightmarish scenario a combination of better and cheaper competitive writers.
Here are some reasons you ought to give you clients to get them to source their work from you.
• A client primary goal is to increase their site search engine rankings. After all what is a site worth without traffic or viewers. Therefore learn how to provide writing service which can provide search engine optimization and convince your clients that you can do so all the while creating interesting and useful content.
• Most freelance writing involves writing for internet savvy clients. Being updated and comfortable with technology and its associated tech talk is very important. This will help you put in the right expressions and connect with your readers. Therefore let your clients know that you understand technology.
• Do not ever sell yourself as a cheap content writer. Even clients on a shoe string budget want to squeeze out as much quality as their penny is worth. So never admit that you will provide cheap low quality writing even if you bid for it rather deal with it tactfully.
• Be consistent with your writing quality. The bulk of your work will come from repeat business. Clients will come back to you if they like your work and will gladly even be willing to pay a little higher if you are consistent and on time. Therefore build long term working relationships with your clients.
• Lastly keep writing, write especially when you have no assignments from clients. Be prolific and produce articles in blogs, submit to article directories or best of all create your own website and put your articles in it. This will show your clients that you love to write and that you write not just for money.
