Freelance Magic
MARCH 8, 2023
By Juwaria Merchant If there’s one thing every freelancer will agree on, it’s that freelancing is a wide sea with superficial depth. And many of us, when starting out, rely on the endless barrage of advice from Google or Twitter “universities”. While the advice is appreciated, there’s one major problem that comes with it —- how do you know who to trust and who not to?

Sometimes, I savor a book slowly. I pick the book up, read a few pages, then put it down again. I highlight ideas and sentences that attract my attention. Later, I treat myself to rereading those highlights. What makes writing worth savoring like that? At school, you probably learned that good writing is coherent, focused, and correct. But isn’t that like suggesting a good bicycle has two wheels, a saddle, and handlebars?

Part of being an entrepreneur means having a lot of great ideas. You have a great idea in the shower, while working on your latest project, or while talking to a client. But as much as you want to work on all your ideas, you know that’s not sustainable. You can’t do everything! Being able to prioritize and focus on the most important thing is an invaluable skill set for an entrepreneur — but it’s not a skill set that often comes naturally.

Blogging matters most when you are selling products or services. Certainly, some people blog for pleasure, perhaps to post photos of their world travels, share tips about gardening, or highlight favorite recipes. It’s fun, recreational, and educational. However, business blogging is a different animal altogether. This type of blogging harnesses the power of the internet and requires technical know-how in addition to storytelling skillsets and marketing abilities.

One of the biggest challenges to achieving content impact is a lack of people. That’s the word from the senior content marketers who answered the Contently 2023 State of Content Marketing survey. The Great Resignation that began in 2021 continued through all of last year, and Quiet Quitting added more pressure, stretching content teams thin and leading many to seek more content marketers for hire.

You’ve probably heard of William Shakespeare, that olde English fellow, the famed poet often referred to as the father of our modern language. While reading Shakespeare can sometimes feel awkward because of the elaborate vocabulary, there is something undeniably rhythmic about the writing. That rhythm is called iambic pentameter , and it’s a classic pattern in poetry that is still used today.
