It's never been easier to dive into freelance writing

The internet has revolutionized how we work and opened new opportunities for individuals with writing skills and a laptop. Nowadays, there is a high demand for content, including website copy, engaging blog posts, and memorable social media content. If you have always dreamed of earning a living by writing, it is an excellent time to start.

But here’s the ugly truth.
Starting a freelance writing career isn’t as easy as some free guides and online gurus make it look.
And that’s because…

It’s not enough to be a good writer.

  • You still need to know how to build and showcase a portfolio that attracts great clients.
  • It’s important to promote yourself and demonstrate how you are a better choice than your competition. 
  • There are many places to find jobs, but you must still navigate the fluff until you find those that pay well and match your writing skills.
  • Finally, you must know the legal and administrative aspects when setting up your freelance writing business.

All this (and more) is enough to make anyone, passionate about writing, doubt their ability to transition into freelance writing. 

Fortunately for you, there is a better way. 

So whether you’re looking into freelance writing to boost your income, or it’s your dream to work when you want, from where you want, here’s how to take the guesswork out of building this next stage of your writer’s life.

Learn how to transition into freelance writing from a #1 International and USA TODAY bestselling author

“I'm taking every single thing I've learned over the last decade and a half and offering it to you.”

I’m Candace Osmond, #1 International and USA TODAY bestselling author, award-winning blogger, screenwriter, and top-rated content writer of over fifteen years. 

I know my way around words, and I’ve learned a thing or two about making it a career. After all, I’ve been creating content for almost 15 years.

So, I’ve joined the team at Grammarist in creating a course to help teach others what freelance writing is, how to do it, and how to launch a successful career.

Candace Osmond

In other words, I’ll teach you everything about professionally writing articles, guides, blogs, and other web content. I’ll break down exactly how to create these types of content and hone your craft. 

I go beyond just improving your writing skills. 

I wish I had known these quick tips when I started in the industry.

I explain the legal and administrative aspects of becoming a paid freelance writer. I also teach you how to price your services, pitch clients elegantly but effectively, and build a powerful brand to establish yourself in the freelance marketplace.

With help from Grammarist, we are making this course a must for any beginner looking to transition into a freelance writing career, whether you’ll do it part-time or full-time. 

Not only do we teach you what and how to write to get digital work, but we guide you through the overlooked aspects of setting up and growing your business. It’s the “boring” stuff like taxes, marketing, and even mindset.

We also help you get your foot in the door. Finish the course, and you’ll receive an opportunity to be a guest author on a website with millions of monthly readers. 

That’s a great piece to add to your writing portfolio; at a minimum, it’s an excellent reason to go through the course from start to finish.

Transitioning from a safe 9 to 5 can be overwhelming.

More people are becoming interested in escaping the rat race and living on their own terms. If you’re one of them, don’t let uncertainty stop you from following your dream.

“This course was fabulous! I’ve worked as a freelance writer for many years, but I wanted to review the rules of punctuation, grammar, and writing styles to sharpen up my work. I reached my goal, relearned many things I’d forgotten, and got rid of the bad habits I’d developed.

The instruction provided was excellent, and the feedback was awesome. I strongly recommend this course to anyone wanting to launch a career as a freelance writer, author, or freelancer who is simply looking to develop and improve their existing skillset.”

“I have tried other trainings before, how is this different?”

…and other frequently asked questions

Start whenever you want, and finish at your own pace. You have lifetime access to this training (and bonuses), which means you are in complete control of your learning journey.

We give you the good, the bad, and the ugly of starting your freelance writing career.  

  1. Structured Yet Flexible Learning Path: Our course offers a structured learning path designed specifically for freelance writers. Unlike piecing together information from various online resources, which can be haphazard in terms of quality and cohesion, our structured approach ensures you cover all essential topics systematically. These essential topics include writing, SEO, and client management. No more sifting through endless internet content. Moreover, our course is flexible, allowing you to learn at your own pace, unlike the rigid schedules of traditional education systems.


  2. Personalized Feedback and Interactive Learning: Our course stands out because we provide personalized feedback on your work, something you can’t get from self-learning through books or generic online resources. This feedback is crucial for honing your skills and avoiding common pitfalls.

  3. Step-by-Step Coverage with Real-World Application: While formal education might offer comprehensive coverage of writing and editorial skills, our course is tailored specifically for freelance writers looking to thrive in the digital age. It covers not just the writing aspect but also the business side of freelancing, including finding clients, setting rates, and managing projects. This comprehensive, real-world focus is something generic online courses, traditional education, or even mentorships might not fully address, especially in the rapidly evolving digital marketplace.

Starting a freelance writing career doesn’t happen overnight. It is possible to get a writing gig quickly, but we can’t make any promises about how fast you will be able to get a new client. Unlike many other sources of freelancing education, we want to be very clear at the outset: there are no shortcuts. 

This transition will take time. You are setting the stage for a new phase in your career and life. A roadmap allows you to progress faster because it teaches you to make the right decisions and take action at the right time.

No, we can not since results depend on too many factors, including your commitment to action. However, we include multiple strategies for finding writing opportunities, pitching, getting hired, and following up with clients.

We’re not offering paid guaranteed working opportunities at this moment. However, we offer a premium bonus to students who complete the course. This is an opportunity to build your portfolio and showcase your skills and previous work experience to potential clients. Those who do well in the course will be invited to do a guest post on Grammarist or DailyWritingTips, sites with a reach of a million users a month.

No. However, experience allows you to make progress faster. 
We designed this roadmap for people who are passionate about writing and are interested in freelancing to supplement their income, build a career, or transition into the time freedom award that freelancing offers. 

This course provides the foundational elements required to build a strong freelancing portfolio, find jobs, set your pricing, build an online presence, and organize your business. 

It does not require excellent writing skills.

You have unlimited, lifetime access to all lessons, quizzes, and everything else. You can revisit and redo the training whenever you like at no extra cost.

Time is a limited resource, we get that. This course isn’t about how much TIME you should spend learning, but about how much you can get out of it for the least amount of time you can commit to. 

Ideally, you learn in small increments at a time to ensure you actually put theory into practice. 
This way, you get to make progress without feeling overwhelmed.

If you’d rather go through the entire roadmap in a one-go, expect to commit to [x] hours. But to get the most out of it, we recommend you give yourself enough time to learn and then implement.

Yes, we offer a fourteen-day, 100% money-back guarantee—if you don’t like The Freelance Writer’s Roadmap, we will fully refund you. Simply email us at [email protected] within 14 days of purchase to receive a refund.
