Get Paid to Write About What You Already Know

You have spent years learning how an industry, profession, trade or community works.

That knowledge can become the starting point for paid freelance writing.

Businesses, charities, clubs and other organisations need press releases, case studies, trade articles, profiles, website material and other useful communications. Many struggle to produce them because they do not know what to say, which questions to ask or how to turn their knowledge into clear, professional writing.

That creates work for somebody who understands their world and can learn the writing skills required.

This free practical guide will help you identify where your experience gives you an advantage and turn it into a service an organisation can understand.

Inside, you will learn how to:

• Choose a field where you already have useful knowledge
• Recognise the types of writing organisations pay for
• Select one clear service instead of trying to write for everybody
• Find a possible piece of work inside an organisation
• Make a specific first approach
• Use your first completed assignment as evidence when approaching the next potential client

The guide also contains practical questions and a working page to help you choose your field, define your service, identify an organisation and decide what to do next.

You do not need previous journalism or PR experience. Story-finding, interviewing, writing and pitching are practical skills that can be learned.

Your existing knowledge gives you somewhere credible to begin.
