Customize This: Copy Project Contract
Use this as a template for your own contracts with clients. Generously shared with us by Bob Bly, his "boiler plate" contract format is easy to use, well appointed and professional … but simple and plain enough to not sound like a bunch of legal mumbo-jumbo.
PWA Private LinkedIn Group
As a member of The Professional Writers’ Alliance, you're invited to participate in a members-only private group on LinkedIn.
Inside our exclusive closed group, you'll be able to connect and converse with your fellow PWA members and mentors in a direct, real-time way. You can throw out ideas for feedback... share copy, key industry articles, and business plans for review ... or just reach out for support any time you need it.
This is our special, safe place to help each other grow and thrive. Don't miss out - join in today!
Bob Bly’s Copywriter Kit
This legacy kit from the legendary Bob Bly includes sample contracts … letters of agreement … telephone scripts … rate sheets … that you can use as a model when building your own freelance copywriting business. [Note: Refresh underway - watch this space for updates!]
Affiliate Relationships: AWAI & Amazon
From time to time in our newsletter, you will see links to programs from our parent company, AWAI, and our affiliate partner, Amazon. If you choose to purchase through those links, we may receive a small commission or affiliate payment.
