I have a *rare* space to take on one new client from next month. If you are (or know someone who is) looking for a freelance writer that:
⚡️Writes about ecommerce marketing, and the creator economy
⚡️Has lived experience of all three (owning an ecom store and a community)
⚡️Written for Shopify, Descript, Business Insider, CXL, and more
⚡️Writes SEO-optimized content with lots of product tie-ins
⚡️Has never missed a deadline in almost 7 years
...and more importantly, gets glowing results like this 👇 let me know!

Interesting preliminary data coming from our "State of Hiring Freelancers" report 👇
Clients value how easy a freelancer is to work with more than the results they drive.
(Freelancers: this is why meeting deadlines and proactive communication are bigger competitive advantages than writing quality.)
We still need a lot more responses before we can draw more accurate trends and publish the data. So, if you're a content manager that actively hires freelance writers, please take 5 minutes to help us out:

#DearFreelancer is back today! Get on the list before 2pm today to read @realBrookNash's answer to this freelancer's question:
peakfreelance.com/dear-freel…
Impress your clients (and get more work from them) by suggesting topics they haven't already covered on their blog.
I find it easiest to spot these opportunities when I'm adding internal links. Topics that don't come up when doing a site: search make for great recommendations.
I'm giving a LOT of feedback these days as part of my coaching calls. The most common writing issues I see:
• Over-explaining a topic
• Using unnecessary jargon/filler words
Whenever I see it, I say: "Imagine we're discussing this topic over coffee. How would you explain it to me? Write that here instead."
