The Immersive Project: Writing For Others

Whenever we think about writing for others/clients, the first thing they ask is an example of previous work. Whether we like it or not, we do need to show them our work. And it has to be your best work because that’s all going to make you get that project. It is important for all of us who wants to write for other should at least have a blog or write-ups which are already published somewhere. So if you have not then you must do that right away. 🙂

Personal Branding and Building Your Own Story as a Freelancer by Mukti Masih

Mukti has been working as a freelancer more than 14 years now. She talked about the pitfalls and advantages of it. Everyone could get a lot of perspective on choosing a career which is filled with uncertainties, but Mukti was confident enough to motivate everyone why they should go for a career as freelancers, and most imortantly how one can go for it. In order to build your story, you need to become a brand, your own personal brand. How do you become your own brand?

 

Well she followed the following rules; you can make your own –

1. Be in the story.

• The art of human experience – inserting human examples, real life anecdotes in my blogs
• The art of asking – by being always curious
• The art of being a pro – by always keeping the communication channel open with clients, by being transparent and keeping clients in the loop
• The art of saying NO – resisting the temptation of taking all kinds of work, regardless of my personal growth.

2. Take risks- Take up things that challenge you, keep you awake at night and hurt your ego
3. Be consistent- try new things but find your niche, one focus area and keep at it.
4. Get out- of your comfort zone, of your city, of a similar set of clients.
5. Repeat.

 

A groufi!
