4 Webinar Sequence Mistakes Editors Make
| Don't Do This | Do This Instead |
|---|---|
✕ Trying to edit for everyone, leading to diluted marketing and lower rates. | Identify your ideal client and specialize in a specific type of editing (e.g., academic, fiction, technical). This attracts higher-paying, better-fit clients. |
✕ Charging hourly rates that don't account for administrative time or specialized expertise. | Implement project-based pricing or value-based pricing that reflects the outcome you deliver, not just the time spent. |
✕ Relying solely on word-of-mouth. | Proactively market your services through a professional website, targeted outreach, and strategic networking to build a steady client pipeline. |
✕ Manual project management. | Implement CRM and project management tools to automate workflows, simplify communication, and ensure timely project delivery. |
