You don’t even need a degree in marketing to do this. Following these relative easy steps can get you on your way.

  1. Set up a website for yourself. It can even be a free site; you don’t have to buy your own domain name and hosting at the beginning. Wait until later when you’re established.

  2. Look around for the best writing companies. They will help promote you as a writer. They already have a great deal of traffic and customers who need writing done will come to them looking for great writers like you.

  4. Go into forums and other types of online communities where people meet that might be interested in your service. Engage with people, be helpful to them, and meet lots of potential clients.

  5. Make your pitch perfect. Know who your customer is and practice pitching your writing service to them.

  6. Offer to do some guest blogging. This is perhaps one of the quickest and easiest ways to immediately start getting your talent out there for lots of people to see and getting your name known among those who read Christian blogs and articles. This is your best option in combination with number 2 which will get you an income right away.
