What They're Saying about Freelancing for WAHMs

For women considering becoming a WAHM (because they want a change in their life-work balance, or because they are planning a family) this audio book will put them ahead of the game by learning what to do, what not to do and how to prepare adequately not only for the life of a work-at-home professional, but of WAHMs specifically.

Huff is candid and frank about the realities of work-at-home life and what is necessary to truly make it work. Both Bly and Huff also share resources that they have found to be pivotal in their respective careers, and present an informative and educational program that is easy to listen to, understand, and for many WAHMs, will be easy to relate to.

For Work-at-Home Moms (and Dads!):
Learn to Run a Profitable Copywriting Business From Your Home, and Still Have Time for Your Kids

New audio class, Freelance Copywriting for Work-at-Home Moms, gives you the tools you need to establish a successful, home-based business.

Dear Work-at-Home Mom or Dad,

Join me and copywriting guru Bob Bly for an engaging and frank conversation about being a work-at-home mom or dad. In this two hour audio recording, we discuss everything you need to know to develop a lucrative home-based copywriting business – from marketing your services to protecting yourself from a lawsuit – while still having time for your family.

This program is for you if:

  • You're considering leaving your corporate copywriting or marketing job to go out on your own as an independent consultant.
  • You left your job several years ago to stay home with your children and would like to go back to work without compromising the needs of your family.
  • You already work from home as an independent copywriter and would like to learn how to build your business and attract more clients.

How I went from fulltime job to no job to building a business.

Believe me, I know how hard it can be to get started as an independent copywriter. When I established DH Communications in 1998, I had just left a full-time corporate communications job and moved from California to New England, where I did not have a single professional contact. Giving up a steady paycheck, medical insurance, and job security was scary!

My motivation? My then-infant son. When I had a corporate job, he was in day care for ten hours a day and I desperately wanted to spend more time with him. Now he’s ten, and I have lots of happy memories of the time we spent together during his early childhood.

I also have a successful business, with much greater freedom, financial compensation, and professional recognition than I would have now if I had stayed in my full-time job.

Learn How You Can Stay at Home and Still Financially Support Your Family

In Freelance Copywriting for Work-at-Home Moms, I share with you how I started DH Communications from the ground up by networking, making a name for myself through teaching and lecturing at professional events, and developing my own marketing materials. I share the mistakes I made – some of them very costly – as well as my successes.

This two-hour audio class answers all your questions:

  • How should I promote my business? Do I really need a Website? What about an e-newsletter or blog? Which tool is most important?
  • What are the most effective ways to network, and how can I make the most of them? Where can I find a list of potential clients?
  • How much should I charge my clients, and when should I increase my fees? How should I manage the finances for my business? How can I plan for retirement?
  • How can I maximize my productivity? How can I keep my schedule from spinning out of control? How much time can I realistically expect to devote to work each week? What percentage of that time will be billable hours?
  • What are the biggest mistakes to avoid as a freelance copywriter?
  • How can I protect myself from lawsuits? Do I need insurance? Do I need to register my business with my town or state?
  • How can I stay current on developments in my field?
  • How can I balance my professional and family commitments with requests from my children’s schools and other organizations that want me to volunteer my time?
  • How can I make the most professional impression on my clients?
  • Will I need childcare while I’m working? How can I deal with the inevitable guilt I feel when I am working instead of spending time with my kids?
