FREE GUIDE: 10 Steps to Grow Your Content Creation Business
Turn your career as a freelance copywriter or content creator into a successful, sustainable business.
The hustle is real… and it’s toxic.
Hunting down new clients while juggling others. Days spent racing from one thing to the next only to start the vicious cycle all over again the next morning. Keeping on top of client deadlines while finding time to focus on your own business.
It’s exhausting.
Maybe after years of doing this kind of work, you’ve accepted it. But it does not have to be this way.
And you do not have to do it alone. That’s why we’re here to give you the tools to help your writing business succeed.
It’s time to…
Ditch the gig mindset.
Set yourself up with firm boundaries, so clients take you seriously as a professional, and you reclaim your time and energy.
Book yourself out.
Spend more time working with clients you love. Increase retention and fill your schedule with only the projects you want to take on.
Charge sustainable rates.
Scale, grow, and live at a wage that reflects the value you bring your clients. No more scraping by for pennies.
If you call yourself a freelancer, you can call yourself a business owner.
We’ve been where you are. We understand how hard it can feel to make “a real living” as a writer.
We also know that it’s possible.
We want to help you make it your reality, by sharing what worked for us {we’ve done over 10 years of trial-and-error, so you don’t have to.}
Now that we’ve found success as business owners, we want to help other freelance writers, copywriters, and creatives do the same.
It’s not about sales tactics. It’s not clickbait marketing or “one-size-fits-all, get rich quick, buy followers on Instagram” type of strategies.
This guide will teach you how to shift your mindset, develop confidence, build relationships, set boundaries, and implement processes that work for you.
Through the 10-step guide you’ll learn how to:
Position yourself as a content creation expert, so people appreciate you as the savvy professional you are.
Charge sustainable rates that allow you to scale, grow, and live at a wage that reflects the value you bring to your clients.
Systematize your processes, so everything from content creation to client onboarding runs efficiently.
Reduce rounds of client revisions to take back your time and increase your capacity.
Put an end to the feast-or-famine cycle and stop stressing about if and when you’re getting paid.
Book jobs you love with clients who value your craft and honor your boundaries.
We’re Jessi + Marie, and we believe writers deserve thriving businesses.
Have you ever told someone you dreamed of a writing career, only to be told you need a Plan B? Or smiled through your teeth while a well-meaning friend or family member asked what your real job is?
As lifelong writers, we’ve heard it all.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of ways to write yourself into poverty. We should know… our first year in business, back in 2010, we made less than $1,000 total {ouch}.
These days, our business looks a bit different. We have over a dozen people on our team, we’re consistently making multiple six figures, and we’ve worked with hundreds of diverse businesses that were once on our dream client list.
Our success isn’t a fluke. It’s the result of tenacity, dedicated processes, and plenty of trial-and-error.
