One frustration that many freelancers face, in some fields, is intense competition. This can be especially true in fields that attract a lot of overseas writers who are able to undercut a typical “western” world pay rate. Others, who do almost the same work, have plenty of work coming in all the time without worrying about competitors that much.
What is the difference? Well, this article – Freelance Writing Competition - lays out some great strategies. Instead of promoting a plain, vanilla strategy, it is important to figure out what value added services you can promote that will make your service more attractive.
There may be some simple, but fairly tedious tasks, that are associated with the type of work you do. If you can offer to perform some of these tasks, to set yourself apart from the pack, you can stand out from the crowd. Of course, the types of extra services you can offer will depend upon the type of work you do.
