Your marketing is the heart of your freelance business! That’s
why this email (from now on) will include not just job updates, but also one, simple tip to help you get into a business-building habit of marketing your freelance services.
Marketing Tip
Learn the position title of who normally buys, or decides on working with you.
For writers and creatives, that’s usually a Marketing Director or VP of Marketing. For engineers it might be a Head of Product Development or Research. For
accountants, a CFO. Keep it in mind when prospecting so you can get directly to the person who can get you the answer you’re looking for.
