EP243: Should You Write for Free?

Here’s another episode of The Savvy Scribe podcast you can’t miss! Today I am diving into a topic that often stirs up a lot of discussion in the freelance writing world, and it is answering this common question, “Should you ever write for free?” Join me as we explore the nuances of this discussion with an open and inquisitive mind.

Should You Write for Free?

Key takeaways:

• It is acceptable to write for free if it is done under fair circumstances, such as when a client asks for a sample piece of writing to evaluate your skills before hiring you.
• It is also acceptable to write a guest blog for free if you are getting marketing exposure in return.
• When writing for free, it is important to set clear boundaries and expectations with the client.
• You should never write for free if you are being taken advantage of or not being paid fairly.
• Your work still has value, even if you are writing for free.
• You have a lot to offer as a freelance nurse writer.
