Want to be a freelance writer and PR pro?

Have you ever considered adding another type of offering to your service list, such as PR?

As a PR assistant, you’d help clients land media placements for their brands (which could be a natural upsell if you’re already helping with content marketing).

While PR isn’t for everyone, it could be a great fit for some freelance writers — especially if you’ve already had success pitching ideas to media publications.

If you want to explore the option, I’d highly recommend checking out the FREE PR Assistant training on October 22 with Lydia Bagarozza and Bridget Sicsko — the talented duo behind Visibility on Purpose, a media training school.

They’ll teach you how PR works and how you can make money by offering PR services to clients.
