The Importance of Non-Writing Skills
Writers often mistakenly believe that improving their writing alone will increase their income. However, achieving financial success involves acquiring a variety of skills beyond writing, such as consulting, sales, and account management. These skills enhance the value writers offer to clients and help foster strong client relationships. By prioritizing the understanding of clients’ needs and how to solve their problems, writers can create a more compelling case for their value and increase their earnings.
