Читать книгу Start & Run a Copywriting Business - Steve Slaunwhite - Страница 28

I know several professional speakers and admire their ability to book their seminars and speaking engagements months in advance. And when their schedule is full, it’s full. The same cannot be said for copywriters. I have yet to receive an order in May that is due in September. Usually an order received in May is due in May (or sooner, if some clients could have their way).

Orders from clients tend to come in waves. Sometimes big waves. One week you’re overloaded with all the business you can handle. The next, you’re begging for the phone to ring.

The feast and famine roller coaster, especially during the first few years, can be stressful. To stay sane, you have to remember that clients do need your ongoing services — it may just be infrequent.
