A Straight Forward Nuts and Bolts Guide

Nathan Segal has identified the problem area facing today's aspiring professional writers. Many do not treat their writing endeavors as a business. Being able to string words together in a comprehensible, enlightening, and entertaining manner is not enough. Being able to market oneself to vendors who will pay well in exchange for creating content that will satisfy their needs and wants is the key ingredient in achieving and sustaining a successful freelance career.

Nathan has proven that his strategies, techniques and tools work well and should be the foundation for others to follow. I have a feeling that we will see and hear more from Nathan in the future and it would be wise for all of us to look, listen and learn.

Secrets of Freelance Writing Review

I have been writing for some time, but most of this writing has been done personally instead of professionally. This course was full of so many resources for the would-be freelance writer. I was amazed at how easy this course was to read and understand. This course is a ready reference guide for all writers, and it was one that I will definitely keep around to assist me in the future as I continue to write and possibly look to writing professionally in the future as well.
