“10 Ways to Double Your Freelance Income ... and Earn $100,000 a Year (Or Much, Much More) in 2006”

November 3, 2005 – Paramus, NJ – While many creative freelancers struggle to get assignments and pay the bills, guest speaker Bob Bly earns more than $600,000 a year as a solo freelance copywriter. Bob began freelancing in 1982 and became a self-made multi-millionaire while still in his 30s. In this session, Bob reveals how freelancers can earn $100,000 or more by following his simple, easy-to-duplicate methods.

Bob’s presentation will include:

• How to earn $100,000 a year as a freelance creative
• The #1 biggest mistake freelancers make that causes clients not to want to hire them
• How to make yourself 2 to 4 times more desirable to potential clients
• Why most freelancers are not as successful as they want to be
• Create a “lead-generating machine” that brings you more potential assignments than you can handle
• Add at least one extra hour of billable time to your day, every day … without working longer hours
• The “80/20/50/90” rule for running a successful $100,000 a year freelance business
