The good thing is, freelance technical writing jobs are plentiful and you should be able to find all the freelance technical work you want, provided you know where to look.
So where is that, exactly? The internet! Think about it: thousands of business owners and hirers are on the internet every day, searching for ways to save money and find the right kind of people to work on projects. Freelance technical work can be found all over agency websites, and all you need to do to cash in on some of it is place an ad. If you find a good freelance website (like Go Freelance), your advertisement will be seen by countless people in a position to hire you on. It�s that simple!
Freelance technical work is yours for the taking, so don�t let nerves get in the way of a budding freelance writing career! Simply think about the sort of jobs you would like to take on, and write up a good, clear advertisement for yourself. Be sure to offer samples of your work so that potential clients can get to know your style. It is important in the search for freelance technical work that you decide early on what type of job you prefer. Is your speciality medical writing? Then say so! Niche writing is always in demand, so state what it is you do, and watch the job offers come rushing in.
Once you have established a foundational client base, you�ll never look back to that nine to five job you�ve seen others cling so desperately to. Good luck finding your own freelance technical work!
Testimonials
"I took a chance one day when I was flush and sent a few bucks to gain access to the Go Freelance Professional Edition. Since then, I've edited a sales letter, a follow-up letter, an 11-page Web site, and a brochure. I'm 'on call' to do pinch-hit proofreading for a medical newsletter editor in Florida ..and I've landed a gig editing a new Canadian magazine coming out this fall. All this from taking a chance on Go Freelance."
