10 Freelancing Mistakes & How To Avoid Them
By Sophie Ash
It’s not uncommon for fresh-faced freelancers to feel overwhelmed when embarking on entrepreneurship for the first time. Suddenly faced with the prospect of self-promotion, branding, sales, and negotiation, it’s easy to lose momentum, or get stuck before you’re even out of the gate. “How much should I charge?”, “Is networking essential for my success?”, and “What should I put in my portfolio?” are just a handful of the questions that are probably running through your jittery mind. Rest assured, this is totally normal. If you act now, you can get back on the straight and narrow, well on your way to increased freedom and flexibility in your freelancing business. It’s time to show up for yourself and quit floundering. In this webinar, you’ll learn how to avoid making the ten most common mistakes that new freelance medical writers make by learning from others’ business blunders.

The webinar is open to all.

We look forward to seeing you there!
