We see FAR too many beginning writers come into this profession with a vague idea of what they “should” or “need to” be doing regarding marketing, and they end up wasting their time doing all sorts of things that aren't strategic and likely won’t lead to the desired outcome, which is clients and revenue.   

You can’t afford to waste time when you’re starting your freelance business. Time is money, folks. You need to maximize every minute you’re INVESTING in your business.  

Here’s how to do that: GOALS. 

Host Elizabeth Hanes BSN RN built a six-figure writing business in her spare time. Today, she coaches other nurses how to become freelance writers through the RN2writer project.

In this episode of The RN2writer Show, Beth talks all about clients goals! We see a lot of people plunge into freelance writing with the idea that “everyone” is a potential client. Their notion is that getting writing work is hard, and so they should take on any company or individual that is willing to pay them.  

That’s nonsense. In fact, that is not true for ANY business. All successful businesses have a particular “ideal client” that they market to. 

So let’s talk about what kind of client goals you can set up for your business.

In this episode of The RN2writer Show, Beth talks about several types of financial goals you can set for your writing business. All business success starts with goal-setting. Without goals, you can’t create action plans for achieving those goals, you can’t measure your progress, and you can’t engage in data-driven decision making. Those things are important! 

So let’s talk about three financial goals you can think about setting up for your business.

Health writing is not about publishing research papers or writing about your experiences as a nurse. Professional health writing involves creating a wide variety of content that’s generally published on the web. A few examples of the types of health writing that nurses and other health professionals get paid to write include:  

…and much, MUCH more!  

And in case you think you need experience writing any of those things before you can become a paid health writer, think again. Freelance writing is very much a “learn on the job” profession.  

On today’s episode of The RN2writer Show, we’re demystifying how health writing works so you can see for yourself how easy it is to get started. We’re showing you the step-by-step process of how health content gets created and published so you have confidence that you really can do this.

Nurses sometimes limit themselves to writing only about things they know, but that can be a mistake it can put you in competition with a large field of less-qualified writers who cover the same general, evergreen topics.  

To separate yourself, you should stay ahead of the trends in healthcare so you can always be pitching articles about emerging health topics – while using your nursing knowledge to inform that content in ways non-clinician writers simply cannot.  

On today’s episode of The RN2writer Show, we’re covering the five most fascinating health trends of 2024 that should be on your radar so you can niche up and become the go-to expert writer on these subjects for any editor!

Recently, a Facebook commenter asked me: If everybody hops on the RN2writer bandwagon, won’t this just result in a glut of nurse writers with work for nobody? 

The answer? No, absolutely not.
