What’s required?
1. Full investment
You need work urgently. That means investing time and effort intensively, devoting your full attention to the problem in hand.
2. A little courage
Some of the steps might take you out of your comfort zone. However, in an emergency we need to be brave! Take a deep breath and do it anyway
3. Fitness for market
You should be trained to industry standards. All the marketing in the world won't help an editor who's not qualified for the job.
4. Readiness to act now
You must be ready to take action immediately. This programme isn't about long-term strategy but about finding a solution to a current crisis.
Testimonials from editors and proofreaders
Jo Nelson: Louise's course was a paradigm shift for me. It has given a grounded, practical pathway to network. Louise's expertise shines through. The content is invaluable for any newbie editor, copyeditor and proofreader.
Liz: This is a really terrific course, and I’ve encouraged several of my colleagues to consider taking it.
Ashley: Your actionable advice is incredibly useful. I love particularly the way you think about content marketing and making the story of a website about the clients themselves. Really good, well-thought-out stuff.
Emma: Thank you so much for your free webinar. I am new to proofreading/copyediting and watched to get some advice on starting out and handling a client shortage ... really good points on there that will work for my VA business too. Your website is on my favourites list.
Colleen: My longtime client is upending its business model, so work has been tapering for a while. Now it’s scarce. They kept me so busy – for years – and now here I am, newish to marketing myself and newish to working with indie authors/self-publishers. Your webinar was jam-packed with the actionable advice I need as I reinvent my business model. Thanks again!
Siobhan: Just the ticket to light a fire under me. Much appreciated!
Jenny: Excellent. A very useful set of guidelines and resources, and delivered in such a friendly and accessible manner. Fantastic – as always.
Erin: Essential for any editor or proofreader. Not only does it provide actionable steps for quickly growing your business, it delivers that information in such a positive, encouraging way that I felt immediately inspired. Thank you for sharing your tactics!
Kerrie: Even though the video was on how to get editing work, the ideas therein regarding improving one's website, marketing in general and various marketing ideas are helpful across the board. I may not start an editing business, but my website will surely get a tune up and I cannot wait to start my Hero Resource/Booklet(s). I will most certainly be putting her other marketing gems to work for me as well. I'm looking forward to mining the rest of her site for more gold as I'm sure it's everywhere.
Ally: Absolutely amazing! This knowledge and insight is invaluable.
Gill: REALLY useful and I was pleasantly surprised to find it covered such a wide range of editing work. Some things I knew but had forgotten; others I had applied when a newbie without success but, hey, I'm seven years down the line now! Some things reminded me to do some tweaking and the best of all, that 'one thing' I believe I needed to do but I couldn't think of it – there it was! I'm now on the books of two new publishers and waiting to hear the outcome of a test for a third; I delivered the first job today for a new client, a distinguished academic from Italy. Louise, you are brilliant!
Ryan: It was just the kick in the butt I needed to touch up several small parts of my marketing. Even those small touches bore fruit the next day with an old client. Thanks so much!
René: Your webinar is fantastic! It speaks my marketing language and has given me actionable steps to take in order to get more business. It's so comprehensive and touched on so much more than I expected!
