“The secret of getting ahead is getting started.” — Mark Twain

Happy Monday! There’s something powerful about a fresh week, no? It’s a clean slate and a wide-open field of fresh opportunities. Today isn’t just another workday; it’s your chance to refocus your energy, tighten up those pitches, and claim the projects you’ve been eyeing.

Check out today’s writing gigs. Let’s turn those “what ifs” into signed contracts!

💡 Pro-Tip: The “First Impression” Polish

Before you hit send on that pitch today, read your intro out loud. If it sounds like a generic template, your potential client will feel that, too. Inject one specific detail about their brand or recent work to show you’re not just looking for any job—you’re looking for this job.
