Free registration at the forum removes this block.Have you checked Lex DeVille's threads on copywriting and freelance copywriting ? They are pretty good.I want to give writing a go because I have to write for all my relatives etc for government letters and sometimes company brochures. But I always thought copywriting was a over saturated market with easy entry and same with coding? please correct me if im wrong im an absolute noob in this
thanks bro! I've just been reading "Escape the rat race" and I feel like I got slapped in the head with truth! I've been focusing on the best way to make a business quick (start a dropship in 5 days etc) but this shit takes time and patience and a lot of belief. I've decided to go into copywriting and work on my skill in terms of demonstrating perceived value.Have you checked Lex DeVille's threads on copywriting and freelance copywriting ?

if you already have an inclination and interest to writing I would look into it and dive deeper, as said, focus on your strengths.
These markets seem saturated but they are also on constant growth, and you can distinguish yourself by focusing on value, having good clients and communication skills, as Lex says !

Tips to get started on Upwork in 2022
Step by step upwork tutorial
Depends what do you mean by valuable in long term.Looking to develop a valuable skill in something. Any suggestions which will be good long term. I've seen coding, copywriting etc but whats your guys advice or thoughts
So to clarify, I want to know what skills are out there that are profitable or not over saturated. My strengths would be in copywriting or any analytical piece of work. What about learning to trade as a professional trader? I've seen another post on a kid who was told off that forex trading= gambling and not a fastlane, I have friends that lost loads of money but also friends that have made loads of money.I get you its very vague.
So, bit of a background i'm very analytical. In response to that video if money wasn't an issue what would I do? probably go into scholastic work because I like topics on philosophy particularly memetics. I'd also carry on MMA and weight lifting because it makes me feel good.
I do most of what I want to do anyway, but I don't like having supervisors or managers at work. I prefer to work alone, or be in a position where I can make independent decisions. My mbti personality type is ENTP or ESTJ (not sure if that helps or not)
I don't care if I have to work 60hrs a week for 5-6 years, want to be able to generate my own income and have more personal control, tbh i've been working 70 hours a week working for someone else. I just can't trust whatever is online. So many gurus on trading and dropshipping and so many promises. I did dropshipping and the process was a lot of learning and frustrating with many errors. I would stick it out but I wanna know if this stuff actually works or am I chasing internet smoke.
I'm asking this forum because this is the only place i'd trust, i know my essay is all over the place
I want to give writing a go because I have to write for all my relatives etc for government letters and sometimes company brochures. But I always thought copywriting was a over saturated market with easy entry and same with coding? please correct me if im wrong im an absolute noob in thisIf you want to work alone and consider coding to be a good choice, I'd pay more attention to this. The salaries in the IT-sphere are high, and you will have the possibility to work wherever you want. My current side hustle is writing (I'm happy to wprk with the guys from https://writingunіverse.com/free-essay-examples/higher-education/) and I like it, but I'm thinking about changing my occupation and learning to program. People with coding skills have more opportunities like working as a freelancer, tutoring, creating their own blog or website dedicated to programming, creating e-books, starting a YouTube channel on coding, etc. I'm sure there are cases when people start coding to earn additional money but end up using it as a main job.
Go for it man !thanks bro! I've just been reading "Escape the rat race" and I feel like I got slapped in the head with truth!

Really appreciate all the help from you guys
