About this listen

If you’re trying to break into freelance writing, you can’t get anywhere without a strong pitch. A well-crafted story pitch is your chance to prove that you’re the person for the job. This guidebook will help you land your first dream assignment and kick off your career as a freelance writer so that you can make money doing what you love.

In it, an established freelance-journalist-turned-editor shares the hard-won advice that helped her go from making $20,000 a year to six figures in media. You'll learn:

  • Smart approaches to grab an editor's eye from an actual editor
  • How to negotiate higher rates on your assignments 80% of the time
  • Advice to help you navigate confusing contracts
  • The most common pitch mistakes freelance writers make, and how to avoid them

It can be hard to launch a journalism career, but an irresistible pitch is the first and most important step.
