Interesting video. I retired from freelancing back in 2017 but I have been curious about AI type writing styles versus that of a writer. Some good practical tips here.

[@ElnaWrites]

Good to hear! Glad you enjoyed the video.

I loved the tutorial. I am more of a formal writer and storyteller with some fluff but I can be clear and concise. In my copywriting course, we call it the big chop where you concise your copywriting. I do use because a lot and will stop doing it. I am a great writer and with your help, I will be an even greater writer for money. I would like to know how many pieces of writing samples do you need in your portfolio to show future clients?

[@ElnaWrites]

That's great to hear! As for your portfolio for a new writer I would put 3 to 4 articles in your portfolio and over time you can have dozens if you want. It's up to you!

@@ElnaWrites How many copywriting pieces should I have in my portfolio?

Thanks so much for the information, Elna! I would love to see more writing skills/process videos. Also, how long does it take you write a typical blog post -- including research, outlining, writing, editing, etc? I'm always confused when writers say they can write a blog post in an hour. What about the other steps? Just wanted to know because I want to improve the efficiency of my writing process and want to get an idea of how long things should take.

[@ElnaWrites]

It depends on the topic. Just the other day for my own blog I wrote 3k words in about 1 hour! For my client pieces that will take me close to 10 hours. It's just different. I also need to add more stats, examples, references for client pieces than for my own brand. I know where to get examples (i.e. from a freelance study I was looking at or from my LinkedIn discussions) so it doesn't take much time to get the post coming together.

How do I start with no exp? 12+ years as an IT professional, experience writing SOPs and KBs for training purposes within my role for a former employer. I am starting a tech/lifestyle blog. As I publish articles using chatgpt, could this be used as my portfolio?
