To find freelance copy editing jobs that will propel your business, simply look online. If you are in an environment where bidding happens, bid slightly lower as you are newer. All it takes to get moving in right direction is one solid lead. From this one lead, you can provide quality product and show your worth. From there, you will have this experience and hopefully a few references to work off of. Freelance implies that you work as your own separate business, but another way to gain valuable experience is to work under other individuals who have compiled more work than they can handle. Again, you can earn experience and gain references and maybe even some referrals from these experiences.

More about advertising: The majority of advertising is paid for by person who wants to promote their brand. Nobody thinks twice about this. You want exposure, so you pay money.... sometimes a lot of money.

Article writing is advertising exposure... but beauty of it is, it's FREE.

I'll say it again: It's Free!

I hope this is making sense to you, because once it clicks, articles just start flowing. And every time you contract a new writing job, you gain specialized knowledge that can be turned into 10-15 articles at very least. What a fantastic way to build your credibility.

Two Article Authors for Twice Exposure

Here's a thought: Let's say you have writing experience in a specialized industry, such as pharmaceutical... and I have experience in a different area, such as technology. Well, what if we got together on one website, advertised our unique writing strengths, and then each wrote 25-50 articles that highly targeted our own category? That would be double visitors, double job inquiries, and double number of contracts, which could potentially snowball into something even bigger-- who knows what!

But you'll never know potential if you don't try. So why not take a gander at article marketing! Sign up for a free membership with friendly folks at Ezinearticles.com and start writing about what you know. It's fun, it's cathartic, and it's good for your business.

(FYI: I don't get paid to say these things. I'm just really gung-ho.)

To your freelance writing success!
