Freelance Writing: Simple Tips on Complicated Topics Getting Ready for New Orders!

RWC wants you to be prepared for the new orders With the winter holidays finally over, our freelance writing community can return to its normal state. That means getting really busy handling all the new assignments our customers order. Don’t get us wrong: we love all that business, and we intend to keep it growing. After all, if things are hectic, that means that our clients like what you do and are coming back for our services.

A lot of you folks had a vacation as well, which we hope refreshed and readied you for all the new jobs coming up. We hope that you had a wonderful time. However, it’s time to get back on track – there are orders to be completed, papers to be written, and presentations to be prepared.

You might be wondering; is there actually a way to stretch your intellect, the way you stretch your hamstrings before a jog? Can a writer really do anything effective to prepare for the new season?

Sure, you can! I’ll offer some suggestions from my own experience. First, change your reading habits for a few days. For example, do you enjoy science fiction? Perhaps you like suspense novels. Then try reading something different from your usual. New ideas, views, scenarios, scenery, and philosophical notions found in unfamiliar literature can be very refreshing. This can boost your writing. This is actually a technique you could pursue frequently, not just when gearing up for a new season of work.

ResearchWritingCenter - a Rewarding ExperienceIf you’re one of our rookie freelancers, then you may wonder why it’s so difficult to get an assignment right now. Well, as you may have noticed, it’s summer! Many of our clients take some vacation. This means fewer orders at this season – actually ten times less than in our high-demand periods!

Despite these fluctuations, what I like about our business is how it surprises me. Listen to this: A guy recently placed an order with several weeks lead time. The order seemed to be straightforward. The assigned writer (whose ID number I will not disclose, to avoid exposing him to jealous messages) wrapped up the job way before the deadline.

The client received the paper without comment (not unusual, by the way). In a couple of days he got back in touch again to tip the writer 100 bucks. I’ll bet that you didn’t even know that tips were possible!
