10 unexpected things about being a freelance copywriter

Quick summary:

1. So if you are thinking of going freelance, you can definitely expect clients… unless you have a reputation as the office arsehole.

2. In that time I've learnt how to negotiate contracts, send invoices, pitch for jobs, grab and retain clients and be the best writer I can be – all the stuff I knew was coming.

3. My tip: Enjoy the quiet periods and spend the time writing blogs, working on your marketing strategy, making your social media accounts look fabulous and don't forget to relax. 

4. My creative colleagues would tut when I said I was thinking of doing it full time, and say yeah, sounds great but it's tricky finding clients isn't it.

5. I have clients that expect me to chase up payments, and they are great people to work for
