Part time freelance writing jobs online

 

Before I unravel the secrets, let me illustrate with the short story below.

From Russia selling Alaska in 1867 to the USA when it was less valuable, to the burning of the Library of Alexandria, many costly mistakes have occurred in history that shouldn’t have happened in the first place.

 

But none is as costly as what happened in the United Kingdom. According to the Independent Newspaper, James Howells, an IT worker from Newport, claims to have unintentionally dumped a 7,500-bit coin in mid-2013.

 

At the time he bought that precious metal, the value of the crypto currency was around $ 130 and he stored the details of his transaction on his hard drive. James recounts that after he had stopped mining for bitcoins; the laptop he used was broken into parts and sold on ebay.com.

 

But he kept the hard drive at home knowing pretty well it contained his bitcoin private keys so that if the currency became valuable someday, he would still have the coins he had mined.

 

In mid-2013, he decided to move out with his family to a new apartment.

During a clear-out, the hard drive — then worth a few hundred thousand pounds — was mistakenly thrown out and put into a general waste bin at his local landfill site, after which it was buried on-site!

In 2017, he found out that the worth the amount in dollars was over $80 million! Any lesson(s) learned from that story? You see, most  freelance writers are like James. Wondering why we are like him?

 

That’s because we often overlook opportunities right in our backyards when we are desperately looking for onliehwriting jobs on the side. Believe it or not, there are golden writing opportunities online in your village, town, city, state or province but most writers don’t know how to tap into this rich goldmine.

 

Most freelance writers make a lot of costly mistakes and it hinders them from grabbing their fair share of this underserved market.

 

So, let’s first find out what these mistakes are and then I will show you how to easily and quickly get good speech writing jobs in your backyard using the novel Backyard Goldmining method of prospecting for clients.

 

Costly mistake #1

Dreaming Big When You Can Start Very Small

As you’re pretty much aware, the highest paying gigs out there are government or corporate speech writing jobs and that’s what most of us have our eyes on.

 

While there’s nothing wrong in dreaming big, it takes big, bold steps to accomplish big dreams. Being a corporate writer comes with a lot of perks, but it’s so hard to land ideal clients unless you’re well well-connected or have access to key decision-makers.

 

If you’re very lucky to have those gigs, you’ll be laughing all the way to the bank!

But, let’s face it. It’s very stressful and it can shoot your blood pressure through the roof like a rocket ship due to tight deadlines and pressures.

 

Go for it if you get better at working under a great deal of stress…but remember, it might take you a while to get your foot in the door.

….Well that takes me to costly mistake #2

Undervaluing Yourself, And Your Skills

Did you know clients measure your worth as a writer based on your sense of self-worth?

Let me ask you this. What do you think it’s the best thing to do when things get tough as an online writer or even when you are trying so hard to get clients consistently?

 

You see, most people think by pricing low, they will get a handful of clients. Well, that might help in the short run, but you have to work for long hours just to earn something meager.

 

Instead, you have to position yourself as an authority by providing your prospective clients with valuable information in the form of tips and advice and you’ll have more work than you can ever imagine.

That’s essentially how the Backyard Gold Mining Method Works and I will tell you more about this proven method very soon. Just stay right where you are.

That takes us to costly mistake #3 and it has got to do with…

 

How You Look For Clients Online

In this day and age, the smartest thing in the world you can do when you want the best gigs is to look online.

So, when you go to Google.com or your favorite search engine and pop into your search box: speech writing jobs online, you will find results like:(Please click on the image below if you can't see it)

 

Online writing jobs side hustles

 

That might be a lucrative offer…but will you be willing to quit your main job and leave your family behind to work so, so hard at NASA?

Just imagine the freedom that comes with being your own boss or working from the comfort of your home, or even doing this on the side and earn some extra income?

When you use the proven, revolutionary Backyard Gold mining method, all that can be very possible.

Let me use the concept of mining so you can get it better.

There are two types of mining.

As you can imagine, extracting gold from rocky areas like mountain tops, undergrounds can be so risky, tiring and very tasking.

I often liken that procedure to looking for speech writing jobs online.

That explains why it’s so hard to break into mainstream freelance writing because the competition is so stiff.

The second is shallow or surface mining.

If you’re lucky to live near a river, stream or an area inhabited by waterfalls, there’s a probability that you might find gold if you go gold panning.

Looking for clients in your backyard has connections to getting awriting job right in your backyard.

Let me illustrate further with this example.

Suppose you live in the state of Alabama or wherever

P.S This can be done in any part of the world please….that’s just an example

Did you realize that most folks in Alabama and those in your state are looking for writers to help them put together words for the following social occasions:

  • Weddings
  • Funerals
  • Christening or baby dedication
  • Graduations

…plus a whole lot more

By the way, I want to show you how you can profit from these social occasions.

To give you an idea, let’s take my favorite: funerals and figure out the total number of people looking for help with their eulogies.

Let’s use the keyword planner tool. What’s that?

Whenever you look up something on Google, Google's keyword planner takes into account your search trail and jots down the total searchers in a given period.

Ok, let’s use that tool to determine the number of searches for eulogies…This is what we will get: (Please click on the image below if you can't see it)

 

Where to find part time online writing jobs How to find part time online writing jobs

Well, there are sub-categories for the keyword under consideration.

Eulogy for dad

Eulogy for mom

Eulogy for son

Eulogy for daughter

Eulogy for co-worker

Eulogy for friend

Do you see where this is going?

Just imagine how much money you will make on the side if you write for only 10 persons if you charge only $100…That would be a cool $1000! Not too bad if you’re just starting out!

You stand to earn more if you dedicate more time to this.

Wondering how to get those clients? It’s so easy.


Freelance Online Writing Jobs or Gigs For Beginners (Entry Level): How to quickly and easily get freelance online writing jobs if you are a beginner or have no experience

 

Are you beginner? And are you looking for proven ideas about how you can get entry level online writing jobs regularly with ease? If so, please stick with me for a while and I will share with you…

 

  • How to easily and quickly get freelance writing jobs on a regular basis without the usual stress and hassle
  • How to get part-time or full-time freelance online writing jobs that pay you extra cash on the side
  • How to get online writing jobs on the side that gives you a deep sense of joy, purpose, and fulfillment!

 

Before we get into the whole thing, let’s look at this short story as it holds the secret to getting the best freelance writing jobs out there.

 

Once upon a time, a husband and wife and the wife’s aged aunt went on a trip to a certain country in Europe. It had been 10 long years since they last traveled. When they got there, the old woman was a real pain in the butt.

 

She could complain so much a donkey would lose his hair listening: the food, the weather, the hotel room, the power situation in the country, the people, and even the law. She even insulted that country’s queen. It was a law in that country that if a family member offends the authorities, all its members must be punished.

As a result, all three of them were sentenced to corporal punishment in the form of fifty lashes.
But because the nation did not wish to be seen as hostile to visitors, the queen agreed that each be granted a wish before receiving their punishment.

The wife asked that a pillow be bound to her rear end and her wish was accepted and she was given fifty lashes afterward. On seeing her niece’s pain, the old woman asked that a pillow be bound on her back and another pillow be bound on her rear end.

 

Her wishes were granted as well and she too was given fifty lashes.

''Sir, I want this to be done before I am flogged. Please bind that old lady to my back before you hit me like a slave.

Don’t give me fifty. I need one hundred strokes '', the husband pleaded!

''Request granted!'', the officer yelled.

''Please….please….please… don’t kill me…I didn’t know he was going to make that crazy wish…Please have mercy on me. Just don’t do it! Remember, we are in the land of wishes. So I wish to be free '', she said sobbing like a baby.

''Hey woman… if wishes were horses…beggars like you would ride… you are going crazy! Bind up her up guys!''

 

Have you ever found yourself in a similar situation like that old woman?

Yes, I bet you have.

I think you’ll agree with me when I say that life as a writer is not that easy for most of us.

Sure, a lot of us have great skills and talents.

 

But have you ever wondered why we do our very best to find great clients out there only to eat the crumbs that fall from the client’s table? If you are lucky enough to have applied the tips and ideas in these video and have several clients asking you for help, then you should thank your lucky stars.

 

 

But, let’s face it, how many of us are this lucky? I feel very sorry for you if you’ve ever worked so hard for a client only to be ripped off or not even paid what you’re really worth.

 

Well, I don’t blame you…But, I am happy to share with you why that happens from time to time and then I will show how to get the best freelance writing jobs (fast and easy) using what I call the Backyard Gold mining Method of writing — but more about that later, so please stay tuned.

 

Now, back to our main point.

I remember back in the gold days, finding a client was like slicing a warm loaf of bread.

My quest to become a freelance writer began in 2003 and I recall how elance.com(now upwork.com) listed so many lucrative writing jobs on its portal with a handful of writers bidding for their fair share of the  ''writing cake.''

Freelance writing  online jobs entry level

With the growth of the internet, all that changed for good. Social media has even made things a lot harder.

Before those technological advances arrived, a diligent writer living in San Marcos, Texas had a fairly easy chance of getting his work published in local newspapers and magazines and journals.

 

However, in recent times, that same writer has to compete with other talented scribes from places like Honiara, the capital city of the Solomon Islands. Hence, the competition has become so intense!

 

With many writers chasing few opportunities online, writers like you and me tend to experience the economic theory of supply and demand.

 

Online writing jobs side hustle

 

Simply put, more writers chase a few golden writing opportunities.

This persistent problem affects all of us and made me cry like a little child almost 10 years ago!

Here’s the full story. Like you, I have always believed that every writer should be properly compensated and was hell-bent on not trading my writing skills for nickels and dimes.

 

Side jobs writer

To make the most of my skills, I looked everywhere for the best writing jobs available.

My bills were due and with a family to take care of, all I could do was to search for something juicy to supplement my income as an English teacher.

I applied to just about everything freelancing writing sites you can think of and boom, I found this site:

Freelance online writing gigs for beginner

 

So, I clicked and clicked and took their tests in joyful anticipation.

Two days, I got this email:(Please click on image if you can't see it)

Online writing jobs side hustle

Now, let me ask you this: ‘’

What would you have done if you had received that note?

Well, upon further inquiry, the support team said my essay was very good but my college certificate was forged!

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read that and I could hardly sleep at night because of the desperation I was going through.

Then, I heard this little voice in my head, ‘’ Dan, why not let it go and move on with your life. You still have a teaching job. You have to be thankful for that’’

Yes, I loved teaching but how on earth could I call it quits when my pregnant wife was out of work and I was the only person doing my very best to put food on the table.

Besides, I had spent 10 years online without any real sign of success and to give up meant I had wasted my precious time and resources all those years.

I have told family and friends and loved ones that there was money online and I wanted to prove a point, so quitting wasn’t an option at all.

After returning from church one afternoon, I had this idea that opened the floodgates to getting clients consistently and I have nicknamed it the Backyard Gold Mining Writing Method.

Ever since that discovery, this unique and proven method has changed my life dramatically, and I am incredibly thankful to God for that.

Now, I am no longer scoffed at by my family and friends but I live a truly happy life and have fewer money worries.

You too can get the best freelance online writing jobs (even if you are a beginner or have no experience) if you apply what I am going to share with you right here on this page.

So, just keep reading and I will show how you can use that method to get online freelance writing jobs clients fast and easy even if you have no experience or you are sick and tired of not getting the best writing jobs on a regular basis.

Even if you are doing so well, you can still use this method to earn extra cash on the side.

You don’t have to be complacent because when your clients feel the heat in their businesses, two things will happen to you.

You will either:

  • be dropped like a stone to the bottom of the ‘’freelance writing ocean’’

Or…

  • be asked to slash your fees drastically and it will affect your personal finances drastically

That’s why you need this overlooked method.

But, first, let’s examine how this method works.

This technique reminds me of the California Gold Rush when gold was first discovered in California by James Marshall at Sutter’s Mill near the city of Coloma.

How to get freelance online writing jobs entry leve

At the time, gold was discovered in river beds and miners used the method of panning to get the precious metals in their own backyards.

Did you know that there are so many writing jobs right where you are or in your backyard?

Sadly, most writers don’t even know they exist. The few who do, don’t know how to get the benefits.

You see, this method is all about using your writing skills and talents to write very simple letters, notes, and speeches people in your village, town, city, and state or province desperately need on a daily basis and be paid for it in days.

This is something you should consider with the utmost seriousness because it’s the fast track lane to getting clients and be paid in days….not in weeks and months….

In fact, I got 3 clients within a week after stumbling upon it and you can too!

Ok … let me open your eyes to the opportunities available here by giving you a sure proof because the proof of the pudding they say is in the eating…

How often do you attend social occasions like:

  • Funerals
  • Birthdays
  • weddings

I guess weddings are your favorite on the list. Now, let me ask you this simple question. Can you identify any opportunities from those bulleted points?

Don’t worry if you can’t because I will help you out.

First, let’s examine the opportunities in the funeral market.

As you are pretty much aware, so many people die every day where you are and even around the world. It’s quite sad, but it’s a fact.

 

Well, as part of the funeral customs, traditions, and practices, friends and family and loved ones of the deceased have to write simple notes and letters and even give tributes or funeral speeches to comfort those left behind or celebrate the life of departed friends and loved ones.

 

Every day, those people consult ‘’Professor Google’’ to ask for help and if you give those searchers what they really want, they will ask you to put together something meaningful and even pay you for that.

Do you still have doubts? Don’t worry.

To give you an idea of the size of the market, let’s use Google Keyword Planner so you can get an idea of the number of people searching for letters of condolence and sympathy.

 

By the way, the Google Keyword Planner is a Google product that tallies your search inquiries. For example, if 1000 people are looking for product views on Google, it keeps a record of their search trails and records the total figures.

 

Here’s the result:(Please click on image if you can't see it)

That image looks blurry, but if you click on it, you will notice that those looking for such letters in the given period were(1k-10k)

 

Ubersuggest, an amazing google keyword planner alternative gives us a perfect snapshot of what the actual figures are for our search term(Please click on image if you can't see it)

Amazon.com even further corroborates our search inquiry by demonstrating that people are ready to pay for our subject matter. See the reviews left on this page:(Please click on image if you can't see it)

Believe it or not, the opportunities are so vast. We are not done yet. Let’s go on.

I can still take this a step further and we will see that people are looking for obituaries

Again, ubersuggest and google’s keyword planner give us some answers as we can see below:

Image 1:(Please click on image if you can't see it)

On top of all that, there are eulogies or funeral tributes. Friends and family of the deceased are looking for ideas to help them give inspiring and heart touching eulogies.

Okay, let’s go back to find out what the search volumes using our favorite tools.

 

First, let’s use Google’s keyword planner tool.(Please click on image if you can't see it)

Freelance writer jobs

 

Second, let’s go for Patel’s ubbersuggest tool

 

Part time onlie writing jobs

 

Again, here’s evidence that folks are buying stuff on eulogies…let’s get back to Amazon.com

Writing jobs online that pay well

Now, imagine helping only 10 folks write their eulogies, obituaries, etc at a fee of only $100 to start with.

That would be an extra $1000 in your pocket…I think that wouldn’t be that bad as a freelance online writing beginner , right? Considering the fact that you will be working for a few hours.

Remember, funerals are not the only social occasions. There are birthdays; weddings and wedding anniversaries etc. and people need you to help them with all of that.

The sad news, however, is that you won’t find those folks online.

Wondering where to find them? They are right in your backyard where there’s practically no competition like the mainstream freelance writing job market where you have to compete with so many writers from the remotest part of the earth.

Thankfully, the smartest brain ever called Mr. Google has done a fantastic job by introducing what it calls Local SEO and that holds the key to get all those clients.

 

While there’s nothing wrong with sending pitch after pitch to editors and hope and pray that you will find a respectful client, you can’t go wrong with using this unique method to find freelance writing clients right in your backyard.

 

It doesn’t matter if you’re doing fine, you can still harness this and earn extra cash on the side to help you take good care of your family and friends.

 

It works and I have gotten letters from people in my backyard and beyond using this method...see notes below.(Please click on image if you can't see it)

Creative writing side hustle

 

And payment deposits like this:(Please click on image if you can't see it)

Just imagine having your phone ring off the hook as neighbors, friends, and even total strangers call you to ask for help and be paid for that without spending so much time on it.

 


Freelance Online Writing Jobs or Gigs From Home (remote)

 

Here’s how to easily and quickly get freelance writing jobs from home(remote)

This piece is for you if you really want

  • Get daily freelance online writing jobs from homethat you can complete quickly and easily!
  • to get effortlessly get part-time or full time online writing jobs on the side to help the bills 
  • to hone your skills and get paid for it— without waiting for months to be paid….
  • to make a difference in the lives of others with your gift of words

 

There are some successful freelance online writers out there. Videos  like these ones below can give you an idea of how make some good money on the side from freelance writing.

 



 

But let’s face it. Knowing where to find good freelance writing jobs can be like going to a goldfield to look for gold with your bare hands. I think you’ll agree with me that lots of online writing jobs abound online but very lucrative ones are so hard to come by.

 

Even if you are lucky to find very good ones, you will still face very stiff competition from writers all over the world. But what if I told you there’s an untapped niche with virtually little or no competition you can do remotely or from home.

 

Do you really want to know what that is? First, let me give you the background story.

 

A few years ago, I tried so hard to find freelance writing jobs and nothing worked for me because I just didn’t want to trade my precious time for dimes and nickels. I wanted ‘’freelance gold’’ but it was so hard to find until God showed me the way and turned my life around for good.

 

Well, I know how you might be struggling to get good-paying freelance writing jobs on a regular basis and I promise to show you how you too can get freelance writing jobs on a daily basis without waiting for so long to hear back from an editor or even waiting for several months just to get a paycheck!

 

You see, before the California Gold Rush, San Francisco was a sleepy little town with a small population and no one dreamed it would someday be ‘’the gold capital’’ of the world in 1849 until that discovery.

 

James Marshall was working on a mill for his boss James Stutter when he discovered some shiny flakes on the banks of a nearby river. And so, he took it to his boss and when the duo tested those substances, they found that it was indeed gold!

 

They kept it to themselves but rumors spread to the nearby towns and cities and before long, people were migrating from all over America, South America and even parts of Europe with only their pickaxes and pans.

 

It’s believed that there was so much gold in the mountains of California and beyond that, you could pick flakes of gold from the ground. That mind-blowing discovery changed everything about California from that moment on and the rest they say is history.

 

That story has got quite a lot in common with finding freelance writing jobs in your own backyard. Believe it or not, there are so many untapped online writing jobs in your own backyard and I am so surprised no one is trumpeting it.

 

Well, I will show you how you can get all those jobs using a proven method I call the Backyard Gold mining Writing Method.

 

Before we get into more details, let’s get a few things right. During the ‘’internet stone age’’, internet usage was restricted to a few countries.

 

When it opened up to the rest of the world, vistas of online writing opportunities became more accessible and writers from every background found a voice. I remember back in 2002/2003, you could easily find work on elance.com (now upwork.com ) and the pay was okay as there were only a handful of writers on the platform.

 

Things have changed in recent times given that, there are so many freelance job sites like:

Remote freeelance online writing jobsOnline writing jobs at homeOnline writing jobs from home

 

 

That might sound like good news considering the fact that there are more opportunities for writers. But, as you are pretty much aware, those platforms have so many  freelance online writing jobs that really don’t pay well.

 

Take, for example, a writing job I saw that promises to ‘’pay’’ a writer $10. That figure sounds ridiculous to me. Worse still, some clients rip writers off! That’s so sad!

 

In this day and age, we can earn more and be treated with respect if we find decent clients on a regular basis or have built a solid track record of success.

 

According to this report, the number of freelancers will increase in the years ahead. That certainly will come with rapid growth in the number of blogs, online journals, and so on.

 

What that means is that more writers will flood the market for those gigs.Well, Robert Schuller once said tough times don’t last but tough people do. While this is true, freelance writers who really want to get excellent online writing on a consistent basis, will either have

  1. specialized

Or

  1. Think outside the box

 

First, let’s talk about specialization.

As you are pretty much aware, those who earn more in any field are mostly specialists. Take the case of a heart surgeon vis-à-vis a general practitioner.

 

For example, let’s take a look at this job advertisement.

How to get remote freelance online writing jobs

Now, let me ask you this: Do you really have what it takes to get that job.

I don’t because I don’t meet the job specifications. Do you? Well, if you have that skill set, then you might get this job pretty fast because few writers might probably give it a shot.

 

Well, if you are lucky to get that job and do a good job, your client will be more than happy to send future assignments your way. But, there’s no guarantee that will last forever.

 

As you know, when things take a nose dive or there’s a corporate takeover, you might be ‘’laid off!’’ so to speak. What if I told you there’s a niche that can withstand all these external threats!

 

Wondering what that niche is? Ok, these simple brain teasers might give you a clue.

  1. Were you baptized or dedicated at birth?
  2. Did you graduate school?
  3. Have you ever attended a wedding?
  4. Have you ever been to a memorial or funeral service?
  5. Are you married?
  6. Have you retired or you have a few years to go?
  7. Are you a member of any club, association or organization?

 

I could go on and on…

If you nodded your head in agreement while going through those questions, then, you have it takes to make the most of this niche. Believe it or not, people like you and me are looking for folks like you to help them write simple letters and speeches for social occasions.

 

Sadly, however, those jobs are not posted online.

Wouldn’t it be great if you find those online writing jobs on a regular basis?

Ok, let’s talk to Prof. Google or your favorite search engine so we can get a fair idea of how to get those jobs.

 

Let’s use the Google keyword planner tool…Ever heard of that? Don’t worry if you haven’t. Well, it’s a Google product that records your search inquiries.

 

To be clear, whenever you are looking for any information on Google, the keyword tool takes note of your search trail and store it in their database.

 

Okay, I want you to make it fairly simple and easy to understand, so, let’s go back to the questions I asked you earlier.

 

Here’s a replay in case you can’t remember any of them.

  1. Have you ever been to a wedding?
  2. Have you ever been to a funeral?

 

To get an overview of the size of the funeral and wedding market, let’s use the keyword planner tool to find the number of online inquiries for weddings.

 

How to get  freelance online writing jobs from home

How to get   online writing jobs from home

 

Did you notice how vast the size of the market is?

 

You see, those searchers are not looking for ideas and tips to help them put together their scattered thoughts together to form meaningful letters and speeches.

 

If you are lucky enough to write for only 10 of those ‘’Googlers’’ or searchers, then you will earn a cool $1000 if you charge only $100…and as far as I am concerned, that’s a complete no-brainer.

 

Most of those searchers are right in your backyard: state, province, town, city, country and are desperately looking for help and you will get fantastic results you get when you use the Backyard Gold Mining Writing Method To Get Clients.

 

Just imagine how you will feel like if you could only grab a tiny slice of that market? Wouldn’t you love that? Just imagine having your phone ring off the hook as neighbors, friends, and even total strangers call you to ask for help and be paid for that without spending so much time on it.

 

The good thing this won’t take too much of your time. You can do this on the side and earn some extra cash. You see, in every town, city, state or province, people are searching for ideas on the speech categories we looked at and if you provide them with good ideas and tips and advice, they will be very happy to pay for your services.

Want proof? See payments my clients sent me.

Like you, it wasn’t so easy finding great freelance writing clients on a consistent basis. I was drowning in debt in 2013 and needed some cash to support the family. I spent hours behind the PC to find writing gigs. But, months of research yielded very little result. 

 

Burned out and exhausted, I accidentally discovered that the best clients were actually in my own backyard and not online as I presumed.   This discovery led to an avalanche of writing orders far more than I could have ever imagined. 

 

Before we get into this in detail, let’s see how this story can help you get an idea of how you can use The Backyard Gold mining Method to find online freelance writing jobs or gigs on a regular basis.

 

Once upon a time, a young man lived a happy life with his family. He lived in a close-knit community and was highly respected by everyone due to his hard work and kind heart.

 

Even though he wasn’t too rich, he could support his wife and his two boys. His first son was 15 years old and his other child was a month old cute baby boy.

 

As time passed by, he was axed from his job due to a corporate takeover and this affected him and his family deeply. He wasn’t himself after the sack. And so, every day, he thought long and hard about how best to turn his naked fortunes around.

 

What kept his hopes alive was the smile on the little baby’s face as he vowed to love and protect him all the days of his life.

 

Not too long after that lay off, he went around the neighborhood knocking on doors and asking for all kinds of handouts.

Three(3) years later, those provisions were not forthcoming because the only factory that employed most of the townsfolk shut down too, leaving a whole neighborhood in need of daily bread. Jerry began to grow pale and thin like a stick.

 

 

One starry evening, he met an old friend at a wedding reception and this longtime friend looked like a prince, so he thought he could at least be of help.

 

Having dined and wined, both friends began to talk about how their past lives, their present lives, and what they looked forward to, in the near future.

 

It turned out that Mike traded in gold and diamonds, and Jerry was so intrigued when his friend offered to show him how he too could trade those precious metals.

 

 

A month after the two had met, Jerry sold the last car he had in his garage and gave half of the proceeds to his wife, pocketed the rest, and then bought a few stuff so he could join Mike in the ‘’Land of Gold.’’ With a few clothes on his back, he ventured out one early morning but his wife wouldn’t let him go.

 

Anita held the hem of his shirt and said: ‘’Honey, are you leaving me and the kids or what?’’

‘’I just hate to see you suffer! I have had enough of this mental torture.

 

Life has not been kind to us lately. So, I’ve to go find something for you and our kids. If I don’t, we will perish. ''He kissed his wife and kids’ goodbye and Anita couldn’t hold back her tears as her husband got down the winding stairs.

 

Their older son in his little shaky voice asked: ‘’Dad, when are you coming back? ‘’

‘’I don’t know…Maybe soon’’ Jerry’s voice quivered with emotion.

Having arrived in a foreign country, he found a job desilting rivers just after a month he’d arrived. He toiled day and night and sent home the little cash he got.

 

 

One day, something exciting happened. His employer signed an agreement with a gold mining company as gold had been discovered in the middle of the river where he worked day and night. Over time, his new bosses noticed his hard work, dedication, and commitment and moved him up the corporate chain. As a part of his remuneration, he was given a little ounce of gold.

 

He left his job after working there for 10 years and came back home to start his own business as the local economy was making a slow comeback. But, he made a mistake. He invested a huge amount of cash into a flourishing business near where he lived and lost quite a fortune.

 

I don’t know what went through your mind as you read that story. But, please let me ask you these questions?

 

Do you think Jerry made a right move leaving his wife and children behind in search of new opportunities? I know your guess is as good as mine…Now, do you think he was thoughtless when he invested in that firm on his return home? I know that has stirred up a heated debate right now in this speech writing class!

 

 

That scenario brings to mind what Russell Conwell wrote in his landmark book, Acres of Diamond.

In that book, he wrote that “Your diamonds are not in far distant mountains or in yonder seas; they are in your own backyard if you but dig for them’’

 

I thought Russell got it all wrong when I first read that because I didn’t understand what exactly what that meant until I discovered how the Backyard Gold mining Method of getting speechwriting clients works!

 

This method is all about finding untapped online writing jobs people like you and I need on a daily basis. Have you ever considered that?

 

People in your backyard need freelance online writers like to write simple letters, notes, and speeches on a regular basis. Believe it or not, finding writing clients using this method is way easier than the traditional way of soliciting for clients where you have to send one several letters and cold emails in high hopes that you will get some feedback.

 

 

Ok… Let me explain how you can effortlessly get clients using this unique method. So, please go grab your pen and paper and let’s do this together.

 

Where do you live currently?

Fort Lauderdale in Texas?

Auckland in New Zealand?

Tokyo in Japan?

Cairo in Egypt?

Havana in Cuba?

London in the United Kingdom?

 

 

Just asking for your location because you can do this no matter where you live in God’s big beautiful world.

 

By the way, let me illustrate with the state of Texas to help you discover how to find opportunities right where you are. The United States Census Bureau gives us a clear demographic insight into the state of Texas, as you can see below.(Please double click on image if it's not too legible) 

 

Freelance writing jobs online entry level

To give you an idea of how to find the best opportunities out there in Texas, and even in your own state or province or region…, we can divide the year 2023 (could be any other year) into four quarters:

Q1- January-March

Q2- April- June

Q3- July-September

Q4- October- December

 

Reminder: This equally applies no matter where you live…The state of Texas is used solely for instructional purposes. Let’s now look at a few events or social occasions that take place in the First Quarter.

 

Of course, we can mention

- Birthday parties

- Weddings

- Funerals

- Retirements

 

As you are pretty much aware, there are a whole lot more.

Let’s switch over to The Second Quarter:

Let’s dive in…below are social occasions that happen right where you are or in your own backyard:

Birthday parties

Funerals

Retirements

Weddings

Graduations (usually May through June)

 

Let’s move on to The Third Quarter:

Here are social occasions that take place right where you are or in your own backyard:

Birthday parties

Wedding Anniversaries

 

Finally, events that take place in the fourth quarter right where you are or in your own backyard:

Birthday parties

Funerals

Retirements

Weddings

Wedding Anniversaries

Thanksgiving

Christmas

 

Have you noticed that I keep repeating social occasions like…

  • Birthdays
  • Weddings
  • Retirements
  • Funerals…

 

That’s because they occur frequently throughout the year so let’s use one of those occasions to find the size of the market. As you know, weddings and funerals do occur every now and then, but I want us to examine the ‘’funeral market’’ because of its vast size. If we still have time, we will do the same for birthdays.

 

 

This cool tool seems to forecast the number of deaths per year in the US.

Well, if that’s something to strictly go by those average figures, then, 2, 270,200 funerals services are held in the US alone every year.

 

You see, whenever someone dies, friends and family and loved ones of the deceased send out letters of condolences or sympathy notes. Some family members and friends will have to deliver eulogies as well.

 

 

Ok…Let’s say, our neighbor, let’s call him Uncle Seth just passed away a week ago. As part of the funeral rites, practices and traditions, his relatives, friends or co-workers might be asked to give eulogies at his funeral or memorial service.

 

Guess what? All these speakers will resort to the internet to find information on giving memorable and inspiring eulogies. Google has done a fantastic job of coming up with the Keyword Planner Tool.

Wondering what the Keyword Planner Tool is and how it works? I am glad you asked!

Whenever you (or anyone) look for something on Google, the keyword will keep a record of the total number of searches.Let’s use that tool to find out the total number of people looking for eulogies.(Please double click on image if it's not too legible)

Did you notice the total number of searchers? Just imagine how happy you would feel if you could write for only 15 of these searchers every month? That would be a cool $1050 if you are charging a mere $70 as a beginner! I think that wouldn’t be that bad as a beginner right?

 

 

The good thing this won’t take too much of your time. You can do this on the side and earn some extra cash. You see, in every town, city, state or province, people are searching for ideas on the speech categories we looked at and if you provide them with good ideas and tips and advice, they will be very happy to pay for your services.

How to get those ''freelance online jobs'' clients?

 

You don’t have to look far because they are right in your backyard and you have to position yourself as an authority on speech writing(even if you’re starting out) by giving them: ‘’ How to Write Tips’’ and you will be laughing all the way to the bank.

 

 

Thankfully, the smartest brain ever called Mr. Google has done a fantastic job by introducing what she calls Local SEO and that holds the key to get all those clients. It works and I have gotten letters from people in my backyard and beyond using this revolutionary method.

 

Just imagine having your phone ring off the hook as neighbors, friends, and even total strangers call you to ask for help and be paid for that without spending so much time on it so you can spend quality time with family and friends.
