Ladywriter, I have never met you before.

But your post on Nairaland gave me sleepless nights for years until I quit my job.

Yes, it was about how you got your first car from writing.

I took the bold step in November 2017.

Two years later, my life has changed for good.

I now write for American companies with my Nigerian names on their websites.

The day I will see you, I will buy you a drink...not just any drink but a bottle of Hennessy

May God bless you for me!

Mynd44, please move this to front page to inspire others.

Wow! I am happy to read about your success online. You made my day! I will like to meet you someday. But, I will rather take a non-alcoholic wine in place of your Hennesy Lol.

wany:

Hi Ladywriter,
I'm happy you on this milestone. Many more wins!

Hum... I've been stuck at number 3 for a while now and I don't know how to go about it. Could you help with one or two resources?

I wrote a post and a book on LinkedIn. Check my website.

I've always had the dream to work as a remote content writer (not freelance) with a company. I know two top content writers in Nigeria who have achieved this lofty goal. So I kept pushing to get there. Little did I know that I was already on the path that will lead me there. Below was how it happened:

I assume you know me already. I am Ladywriter. I created this thread "https://www.nairaland.com/4479900/how-make-decent-income-writing
", and "https://www.nairaland.com/1833989/how-make-1000-month-writing".

I stopped working on Freelancer.com to start my writing biz few years ago. It was tough, but I kept going. Two years ago, I sourced clients from LinkedIn. I got about 3 clients all from Europe. I worked with these companies for some time. The least period being six months and the longest - for about 2 years. While working with them, I tried as much as possible to satisfy the clients, but one of them was difficult to please. I eventually lost two of the clients. I kept faith with the remaining one. During this period, I brushed up my seo skill, took paid writing courses worth over $300 with Jon Morrow, bought copywriting books, read virtually all of Neil Patel’s content and followed Brian Dean bumper to bumper. I also bought grammar editing tools. I just kept on learning and improving myself.

Within a year, I became a pro at writing excellent business articles that ranked high on search engines. The articles I wrote for the company began to rank high in Google for our targeted keywords and the company sales soar. The company gives incentives from time to time. For example, they give Amazon Gift cards during Christmas.

Not too long ago, the company wanted to expand its staff strength. I got a call from the CEO asking me if I would like to work for the company full time. I was highly elated! I don’t think I need to tell you my answer (lol). Dreams come true after all. My basic salary for a start is four figures in dollars which translates to six figures in naira. I couldn’t believe my eyes. To cap it all, there are many benefits attached to the job. I will have the opportunity to travel annually to participate in the company’s camp meeting. There are other side benefits apart from my salary.

People, it is good to be hardworking. I can’t begin to tell you the number of hours I spend on my laptop daily including weekends or how much I pay for data monthly. It took me about 3-4 years to get to this point with a lot of learning curves. But it eventually paid off. And this is just the beginning for me.

The truth is, there is no shortcut to success online. There is a process to follow to achieve your dreams. There is no height too high to climb if you are ready to pay the price.

I am writing this piece to encourage someone out there on the path to achieving his or her dreams or someone with a similar dream as mine.

If you are a writer and you want to achieve a similar feat, follow the steps below:

1. Learn how to write business articles
2. Learn how to do SEO
3. Learn how to source clients from LinkedIn
4. Take free and paid writing courses
5. Follow the experts

May God reward your efforts!

Blessings!

He who waters will also be watered. You're a good person

So glad to hear from you again @Ladywriter, you have indeed come a long way and its been worth it because its an unfolding journey. Pls would like to ask if your email is still the virtualassistantpro and you still respond to emails.
Would love to keep in touch. Still need guidance
Great stuff!!!

Nice write-up, the part I will love you to talk more on is how to source for client on LinkedIn.
Thank you

Let me shock you - they didn't even ask for my Pali (Certificate). It's based on deliverables. Can you get us more traffic that will lead to more sales? Yes? Let's get started. I delivered and they believed in me. There are companies that are out for results and not the number of degrees because it may not translate to the desired goals.

Yes, you can. But like I said it is a process. You have to write and learn. But it becomes easier when you have a mentor that can hold your hands as you navigate the path.

Good stuff. I see we are swelling, and that's a good thing.

What sector/niche does the company do business in? I assume most of its customers come from search engine traffic.

congrats dear. I pray to get there someday.

It's a tedious procedure, but rewarding. I have a post and a book on it. Check it on my website - https://www.iamladywriter.com.

They are Saas (Software as a Service). We do all-round content marketing. We do guest posts, social media, quora, etc. The traffic is kinda mixed, but most of them are from Google.

Congratulations
Have been following your posts on nl for a long time now and I get inspired each time.

I started my freelance journey 3years ago. But, I have discovered that it's time consuming, requires dedication but very rewarding. Sometimes I wish I started when I was single with no responsibilities. It's really not easy trying to combine family, caring for the kids, and spending hours in front of your laptop each day.

I have few questions please.

How do you manage bulk work from various clients with tight deadlines? Do you outsource your work?
How do you manage to get clients despite your identity as a Nigerian? Do you sometimes get rejected as a result of this?

More wins to you this year and beyond. I pray to achieve such feat soon.

Whaooooo ..... This is highly commendable

t's cool when you have the opportunity to work in a large company and at the same time not be confined to work constantly. Freelance is very convenient.

Yeah, that's true!

@LadyWriter. God bless you for lifting others.

When a Candle lightning another Candle it doesn't lose its value.


I keep telling the Youth around me, there are still legit means of earning six figures online without doing Yahoo or internet fraud.

I'm one of your student in those days. You opened my eyes to writing.

Though, I later ventured into copywriting.

Created my profile on LinkedIn.
Keep putting out contents consistently to engage the audience using Hashtags & keywords.

Some of these agencies have their representatives on LinkedIN. Some of them do reach out to me.

Today, I'm working with foreign companies as a business copywriter. This has been giving me consistent income.


Here's the thread I created to help others too

Hello, good morning.

I'm into KDP writing. I started about 3 months ago and it's been difficult scaling up. I need someone to hold me by the hand and mentor me on the business. Will you be able to do that for me?

Thanks and God bless you.
