Rookie Freelance Writing Mistakes That Are Holding Your Clients Back

it's easy to make novice mistakes that turn clients off and cost you business. After a few slip-ups, I quickly learned from my errors. Here are the top 10 beginner mistakes that may be holding you back:

When starting out as a freelance writer

Not Having a Professional Website Content

An amateur or non-existent website screams rookie. Invest in a clean online portfolio.

Submitting Generic Applications Content

Personalize pitches and  cater to the client's needs. Generic outreach is ignored.

Lacking a Specialty Content

Identify a niche like  tech or healthcare  writing Specialization  lands higher pay clients.

Taking on Unpaid Work

Avoid working for free or "exposure." Get paid what you're worth.
