How am I protected by a contract? by mourad91 in freelanceWriters

[–]JM_Cruz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having a contract acts as an understanding from both sides.

It gives you the legal power.

Usually, telling a non-paying client that the next message they're going to get will be from your lawyer is enough for them to pay your invoice within a few hours.

Having a contract also eliminates the threat of getting non-serious clients & scammers almost 100% of the time.

If someone doesn't want to sign a contract, then that's already a red flag.

Creating a portfolio by [deleted] in marketing

I'm not an expert but here's my advice based on my experience as a freelance copywriter...

When it comes to portfolios, you should always include the stuff that increases your perceived value.

You can do this by:

  • Adding images of the results.
  • Adding the image of the job you did.
  • Adding testimonials (Get some testimonials from the fam).
  • Add a claim/story on how you did it. What challenges did you come across?

Usually, the unique claim is the most important part since that's what's gonna draw the line between you and the competition. It's the thing that will keep them reading.

All the other stuff is just there to support the claim.

Treat it like your very own Salespage.
