I’ve been on the hunt recently for a part time blogger that can write for about 5 different blogs. Each blog needs about 2-4 posts per month, so that means I need a blogger that can post 10-20 times per month. Here is what I would look for on a business card:
1. Link to your personal blog.
If you’re going to freelance write, you need a blog. Plain and simple, a blog will help show off your best work.
2. Sites you’ve been featured on.
If you’ve written for Engadget or the New York Times, make sure you specify that on your business cards.
3. References for A-List bloggers.
If you are great friends with Darren Rowse and he’ll vouch for you, that is huge and would make me hire you on the spot!
When designing your business cards, make sure you are clear and express the fact that you are reliable and dependable and can work for longer that 1 month (frequent issue I’ve found).
Now get out there and find some work! Or just contact me for more info.
