Guest: NAIWE’s Well-Fed Expert Peter Bowerman

Commercial writing may sound intimidating, but it is simply freelance writing for companies. Because some companies are unwilling to hire full-time writers, they often have needs for freelance writers. Commercial writing allows freelance writers to offer a fresh perspective while letting them learn how to help others and set themselves apart as experts. In addition, commercial writing provides an income and the time to focus on the writing that freelance writers really love.

In this webinar, Bowerman also speaks about the benefits of self-publishing and the opportunities it offers writers. He introduces ways for writers to become their own marketers and to create additional financial opportunities for themselves.

Here’s what you can expect to learn in this class:

• Strategies for standing out in crowded writing marketplace

• How to “un-commoditize” your writing and raise your market value

• How to diversity into the lucrative field of “commercial” freelance writing

• How to turn your expertise into multiple money-making products and services

• Why self-publishing could be your best publishing option

• How self-publishing a book can boost your industry reputation, your short-term profitability, and your long-term financial security
