Money Maker: Build Your Writing Business
With Shari Cohen

Listen to She Writes Founder Kamy Wicoff interviewing Shari Cohen

Options

Are you effectively communicating the value of your services and linking them to the prices you think you're worth? Do you have to invent your "pitch" every time? Are you confident of what it is? Does it come across in your conversations and in your written and online materials? The second in a series on recession-proofing your career as a writer, this webinar will show you how to hone a good positioning statement about who you are, the value you bring, and specifically what you offer. A strong pitch, the first tool to build your business as a writing coach/consultant, is crucial in networking and platform building.

Take-aways from this interactive webinar include:
•Learn how to articulate clearly what you offer and the value you bring to the table.
•Jumpstart the process of creating or upgrading your materials: how you answer the question "tell me about yourself," in one-pagers about your services, and on your website.
•Lay the groundwork for linking the value you believe you have to the prices clients will pay.

Note: Each webinar in this three-part series stands on its own. However, for greatest benefit, also order the download of Become a Writing Coach—Double Deal: get both for $50 (that's $10 off)!

With Shari Cohen

It was Shari Cohen who helped me professionalize and become a true "solopreneur." She gave me the tools I needed to turn my writing, coaching, and consulting into a profitable business. She helped me access my confidence and change my mindset to see myself as bona fide business person rather than solely as journalist/author/ blogger. —Deborah Siegel

Hi Shari: I just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful webinar! You've inspired me to pursue new and profitable paths with my skills as a writer. There will be many hours of mulling and thinking and planning before I get anything underway, and I'm looking forward to it. Many, many thanks. —Victoria S.
