    hi, David

    How's it going today? What's changed?

    Yeah, it's a bummer it'a paywalled. How much is membership? What's your strategy?

    It’s behind a paywall for me, or I need to sign in to view the content and don’t have or want to create an account.

    What’s the TLDR, though? What’s this guy doing that is making his freelance writing business so successful?

    Did he already have a solid network before starting? Does he work with multiple clients, or just a few?

    My curiosity is piqued.

      Instead of a lead magnet, these posts act as a way to attract aspiring writers.

      The TLDR is to leverage the skill of writing into multiple projects. For example, early in my career I wrote a lot about affiliate marketing. Then took two months off to make an affiliate site for myself - and that still makes me a bit of income to this day.

      Another way I've seen people in my network do this is when they've written on a topic of a long time (6+ months), they start applying to be an hourly consultant for the topic. This is a great way to supplement income without taking on more writing projects.
