Become a Freelance Copywriter: Start making money from home!

You really can make money as a freelancer. All you really need is a PC or Mac and a broadband connection – plus a desire to write and a bit of flair. Unlike so many guides on the subject, the Udemy course “Copywriting – Become a Freelance Copywriter, your own boss” is not a jumped-up list of ‘useful phrases’. It won’t tell you ‘how to make a million dollars overnight’. Instead, it is a unique, detailed step-by-step guide to becoming a successful freelance copywriter working from home, from scratch.

Step by step

Follow each step and you can make between £300 ($450) a day and – with more experience – £500 ($750) a day. Not exactly a get rich quick formula, but a very respectable income. Especially for someone who is their own boss, has few overheads, doesn’t have to commute to work, and chooses exactly how much or how little work they want to take on. Because my website has been live for some time now, I get more than I need and have to turn work away.
