 Yes, You Can Have a Career as a Successful Writer!

©) 2003 Caterina Christakos

Many of us love to write yet have this belief
that only one writer in a million will make
money. If we use conventional standards of
writing perhaps this is partly true. There are
dozens of way to turn your skill as a writer into
cash though. Below you will find seven strategies
to turn your words into cash.

1) Write about something that you love. Write a
book about your favorite hobby, skill or any
subject that you know more about than the average
Joe. Create a pdf ebook using Adobe 5.0 and post
it on every ebook site on the web. In most cases
you can make up to 80% of the profits over and
over again 24 hours a day, every time someone
buys and downloads your ebook.

2) Use print on demand services like
iUniverse.com to publish your book yourself. Then
submit a sample chapter to every writing site on
the web. Give away this chapter with a link to
where they can buy your whole book. You will be
able to make up to 30% of the profits using this
system 24 hours a day.

3) If you have a product or service that you are
promoting and haven’t been able to traffic to
your site, write free articles on a subject
related to your product or service. Give your
article away to web masters through sites like
ideamarketers.com. They get content for their
ezines and newsletters and you get a paragraph at
the bottom promoting your product or service. You
also get a link to your website where they can
buy it. More traffic to your site equals more
sales.

4) Write ebooks for other people. Not everyone is
a skilled writer. Your service would be
invaluable to them. Charge a reasonable fee and
have a referral program. When one of your clients
refers someone to you, give them a percentage of
your profits. This will help build your business
in no time.

5) Write articles for other businesses. Again,
not all businesses owners have this skill. You
can write for cash or trade for advertisements in
their newsletters and ezines.

6) Write the copy for web sites. Anyone can build
a website. Not everyone can articulate well
enough to get their customers excited. Scan the
web for web sites that could use a little
polishing. Politely offer your services.

7) Use your writing to create brochures, sales
letters and advertisements for your own products
and the products and services of your clients. A
well written sales letter can bring in hundreds,
thousands and even millions of dollars.

These are just a few ways that you can turn your
words into wealth. Start with these and be
prepared to be amazed at how quickly your
business will grow.
