This thread is awesome and filled with so much value. You really embody the "give before you can receive" mindset. I have been studying copywriting for a couple months with the intent of freelancing and kept thinking I needed to learn more, but your thread has convinced me to "JUST SHUT UP AND GO DO IT"
Made an Odesk account yesterday and will begin to look for ways that I can add value ASAP.
Funny thing is that I think in some way we all know that we have to give value to receive, I went on Odesk a couple weeks back and searched for copywriters to find out what others were doing, and I could almost feel that I could do it better than them. Not because I had more skill but because something was "off" about their profiles. I now know, thanks to you, that what I felt was that they weren't focused on the needs of the client but on themselves. And if I can feel it so can the clients.
Thanks for this thread.
Fascinating how well people respond to giving, there are so many takers in the world that it is refreshing to find someone like you who are putting themselves out there.
You are right, this thread is not about copywriting, it is about putting yourself aside and just giving instead of being a leaching little slug(value taker).
Cheers man
