If you\u2019re a freelance writer or a ghostwriter, then you\nrealize the importance of lead generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Without a fresh stream of leads, it\u2019s difficult to maintain\npassion, confidence, or motivation to write.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s why in this guide, you\u2019re going to brainstorm seven\npowerful methods to help generate freelance writing clients using ClickFunnels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seven smart lead generation tips for freelance writers\nusing ClickFunnels:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Email marketing is a criminally, untapped opportunity for\nemail marketers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have an email newsletter who loves your writing\nstyle, then it\u2019s the easiest well to tap when seeking new ghostwriting (or\nfreelance writing) leads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Send an email to your subscription base and let them know\nthat you have an opening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Email marketing is one of the most popular sales strategies\non the entire planet. Just about 59% of B2B marketers claim<\/strong><\/a> that email marketing\nis their most effective sales channel. I think that massive companies in the\nworld use email marketing for a reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why is email marketing unfathomably powerful, even for\nghostwriters and freelance writers? Because email marketing is a rare\none-to-many marketing channel that also boasts the benefits of a one-to-one\nrelationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In other words, emails are extraordinarily easy to write,\nand you can send them to a virtually unlimited quantity of subscribers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Email marketing is the ultimate leverage!<\/p>\n\n\n\n You might be wondering how the heck can you use email\nmarketing as a freelance writer? The truth is that it\u2019s super easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you love the idea of managing an email newsletter to keep\nyour subscribers up to date, then ClickFunnels<\/strong><\/a> makes the process easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can undoubtedly find a fantastic lead generation\ntemplate within ClickFunnels that you like. After you search the models, you\ncan use the ClickFunnels page editor to edit the text, graphics, headlines, and\nsettings so that the page matches your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But maybe you\u2019re wondering what type of lead magnet you\ncould offer to your freelance writing prospects? If that\u2019s the case, then worry\nnot, because I\u2019ve got you covered. The following entries on this list make for\namazing lead magnets that you can use to build your email subscription base,\neven if you have no clue how to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are two reasons why webinar marketing rocks for\nfreelance writers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n First, webinars make for excellent content for your\nprospects. Webinars can tell your story, promote your writing gigs, and also\nteach valuable content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Webinars are also fantastic opportunities to build your\nemail list. Each time a prospective writing client lands on your webinar\nregistration page, they might subscribe to email updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Any decent webinar marketing platform these days (EasyWebinar<\/strong><\/a>, GotoWebinar<\/strong><\/a>, Demio<\/strong><\/a>) makes it super\nsimple to add webinar attendees to your email newsletter automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That way, you can follow up with them with excellent\ncontent, and whenever you have an open gig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Maybe you\u2019re not sure what type of webinar you could host as\na freelance writer?<\/p>\n\n\n\n All these topics are utterly perfect webinar topics for a\nfreelance writer or ghostwriter. They\u2019re incredibly genius.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why do you ask?<\/p>\n\n\n\n All these topics would provide a ridiculously simple\ntransition for you to promote your ghostwriting services at the end of the\nwebinar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You could present a ton of valuable content and deliver tons\nof value. Then, at the end of the presentation, pitch your ghostwriting\nservice! Offer a one-time discount if the prospect orders in the next 24 hours.\nNow you have a webinar that rocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Not only that, if you provide great content on your webinar,\nthen there\u2019s a good chance that the webinar attendee will appreciate and\nremember you. That way, if they ever need freelance writing gigs in the future,\nthere\u2019s at least a chance that they\u2019ll think of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s easy to imagine all the benefits that your end-users\ngain from your content creation! So, pitching your service at the end of any of\nthe webinar mentioned above topics is somewhat elementary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In my opinion, a lot of gifts and lead magnets these days\ndon\u2019t offer much of a punch!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do you know what offers a punch, though? Can you suggest\nsomething truly worth a couple of bucks?<\/p>\n\n\n\n When it comes to lead insanely suitable magnets, it\u2019s tough\nto beat $100 worth of free freelance writing services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Seriously. That\u2019s a fantastic gift that I\u2019d love to win. That\u2019s precisely why raffling your freelance writing services is a genius gift to give away in a raffle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With ClickFunnels, you can easily create a raffle or sweepstakes lead generation funnel that rocks. For your prospect to qualify, they submit their email address on your ClickFunnels lead capture page. <\/p>\n\n\n\n After you create your raffle, then spend some real-time\npromoting it as hard as you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Promote it on your social media channels, to your existing email list, and your friends and colleagues. With any luck, your raffle takes off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then, at the end of the month, select a winner. Email the\nwinner and let them know that they\u2019ve won!<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the end of the raffle, you have now hopefully generated\nquite the buzz and built your email newsletter list at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Imagine if you had a new raffle giveaway every single month?\nYou might generate a ton of new email subscribers, so it\u2019s a win\/win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One frustrating thing that your freelance writing prospects\nlikely face is that they have no clue how to find a good ghostwriter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Maybe they\u2019ve tried to hire a ghostwriter in the past, but\nthey got ripped off. Or maybe their last freelance writer reneged on them\nbefore they finished the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Face it. A lot can go wrong in the world of freelance\nwriting! Sometimes there are bad clients and bad writers. Sometimes, there\u2019s a\nmixture of both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019d also bet that if you have experience as a freelance\nwriter, that you have a ton of helpful tips to offer prospective clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If so, then why not organize your invaluable experience into\na handy report, e-book, .mp3 audio recording, or even a short video course?<\/p>\n\n\n\n That would make the perfect lead magnet to provide insane\namounts of value to your prospective ghostwriting clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ClickFunnels makes it very simple for you to plan, build,\nand launch beautiful marketing funnels. You can create a membership site for\nyour video course. Or, you can make a lead capture page for your e-book report,\nand a variety of different lead capture pages for any lead magnet you envision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You could also spread massive amounts of good karma to your\nsubscribers and prospects. Good karma always helps freelancer writers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n A hero funnel is all about putting you, your story, and your\nbrand at the front and center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have an excellent reputation for creating stellar\nfreelance content, then a hero funnel rocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A hero funnel allows you to promote just about anything you want, in addition to your brand. If you have any portfolio pieces that you would love to share, then a hero funnel is perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also promote blog posts, your books, your services,\nyour reviews, or even affiliate products that you want to share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hero funnels are very versatile. They\u2019re also fun. Most of\nall, hero funnels are a great landing page to add to your overall funnel stack\nas a freelance writer or ghostwriter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want to get straight to the point, without any hype\nor ballyhoo, then you can offer an elementary and secure registration page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The idea here is to promote a regular lead capture page to\nthose prospects who are ready for a freelance writer now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ClickFunnels has a wide array of lead capture page templates\nto experiment with and use. But maybe you\u2019re not sure what type of headline you\ncould use for a standard lead generation funnel?<\/p>\n\n\n\n This type of registration page works if you have a blog\nwhere you regularly promote your freelance writing gigs. Or, if you have a\nsomewhat cold list of leads, then this type of lead generation page is perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That way, your readers who already have a general idea of\nwho you are can register without any fuss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can then have a confirmation video on the thank you page\nexplaining how they can contact you. You could also have a contact form that\nallows your prospects to get in touch with you. Or, you can request for your\nchances to leave their phone number so you can get in touch with them at your\nearliest convenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A traditional video sales letter is one of my favorite ways\nto promote and advertise anything!<\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019ve had a ton of fun creating video sales letters. I bet that you and your freelance writing business isn\u2019t any different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After launching many dozens of online courses over the years, most of my classes feature a video sales letter of some type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Creating a video sales letter is a lot of fun. At first,\ncreating a video sales letter was a ton of stress. After creating my fourth or\nfifth video sales letter, things got much more comfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One tip that I\u2019d like to give is to test different types of video sales letter scripts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Until you experiment with different scripts, it\u2019s difficult to tell which style will convert the best. Some of my video sales letters convert very well. Other video sales letters perform very poorly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n In my opinion, it\u2019s nearly impossible to tell how your video sales letter will work until you test it. So, try to experiment with different styles! Test small so that you never waste a marketing budget on a video that\u2019s doomed to fail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Either way, ClickFunnels makes it super easy to choose from\na wide variety of video sales letter templates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can easily find a fresh template that you like and then\nedit the template very merely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Being a freelance writer or a ghostwriter is tough! You spend countless hours every day writing to benefit your clients. A ghostwriter is an exceptionally thankless job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But, freelance writing and ghostwriting is also a perfect job for those who love freedom! That\u2019s why promoting your freelance writing and ghostwriting gigs is so essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I do hope that you had fun reading this freelance writing\nlead generation guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Have a great day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cordially\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mike \u201cFreelance Writing\u201d DeVincent<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n MrComputerScience.com<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If you\u2019re a freelance writer or a ghostwriter, then you realize the importance of lead generation.
