Time is money, folks. You need to maximize every minute you’re INVESTING in your business.   Here’s how to do that: GOALS.  Host Elizabeth Hanes BSN RN built a six-figure writing business in her spare time.

    What Are Your Client Goals?

    In this episode of The RN2writer Show, Beth talks all about clients goals! We see a lot of people plunge into freelance writing with the idea that “everyone” is a potential client. Their notion is that getting writing work is hard, and so they should take on any company or individual that is willing to pay them.   That’s nonsense. In fact, that is not true for ANY business. All successful businesses have a particular “ideal client” that they market to.  So let’s talk about what kind of client goals you can set up for your business.  Host Elizabeth Hanes BSN RN built a six-figure writing business in her spare time. Today, she coaches other nurses how to become freelance writers through the RN2writer project.    Topics discussed in this episode:  2:00 Who Are Your Ideal Clients?  4:23 Total Number of Clients  4:51 Anchor Clients  5:43 Industry Niche  6:15 Ideal Client Characteristics  6:57 Recap    Resources mentioned in this episode:  Nurse-to-Writer Bridge Program: https://www.rn2writer.com/bridge   RN2writer: https://www.rn2writer.com/   Design Your Dream Career as a Nurse Writer: https://rn2writer.com/dydc-yt  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1H5433LWNu80XNOfiEcVRx?si=295f67298c2046ff   Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/sa/podcast/the-rn2writer-show/id1581442377     Next steps Start your journey from nursing to writing with the ebook Design Your Dream Career as a Nurse Writer  Follow RN2writer on social media: Instagram, Facebook,  and LinkedIn    Special thanks to:   Custom RN2writer theme music by https://www.podcastthemes.com/

    How Health Writing Works

    Health writing is not about publishing research papers or writing about your experiences as a nurse. Professional health writing involves creating a wide variety of content that’s generally published on the web. A few examples of the types of health writing that nurses and other health professionals get paid to write include:   Consumer health articles   Web pages   Patient-facing blog posts   Brochures   Case studies   White papers   Industry blog posts   Industry news articles   Video scripts   …and much, MUCH more!   And in case you think you need experience writing any of those things before you can become a paid health writer, think again. Freelance writing is very much a “learn on the job” profession.   On today’s episode of The RN2writer Show, we’re demystifying how health writing works so you can see for yourself how easy it is to get started. We’re showing you the step-by-step process of how health content gets created and published so you have confidence that you really can do this.  Host Elizabeth Hanes, BSN RN, built a six-figure writing business in her spare time. Today, she coaches other nurses on how to become freelance writers through the RN2writer project.    Topics discussed in this episode:   1:00 What is Health Writing?  2:35 Step #1  2:55 Step #2  4:02 Step #3  6:22 Step #4  7:00 Step #5  7:35 Step #6  8:25 Step #7  8:45 Step #8  8:58 Step #9  9:24 Step #10   9:55 Lather, Rinse, and Repeat     Resources mentioned in this episode:  How I Make $400 an Hour as a Nurse Writer Video: https://www.rn2writer.com/offers/oo3e6VL8   RN2writer: https://www.rn2writer.com/   Design Your Dream Career as a Nurse Writer: https://rn2writer.com/dydc-yt  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1H5433LWNu80XNOfiEcVRx?si=295f67298c2046ff   Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/sa/podcast/the-rn2writer-show/id1581442377   Blog: https://www.rn2writer.com/blog     Next steps  Start your journey from nursing to writing with the ebook Design Your Dream Career as a Nurse Writer  Follow RN2writer on social media: Instagram, Facebook, Tiktok, and LinkedIn    Special thanks to:   Custom RN2writer theme music by https://www.podcastthemes.com/

    Nurses sometimes limit themselves to writing only about things they know, but that can be a mistake it can put you in competition with a large field of less-qualified writers who cover the same general, evergreen topics.   To separate yourself, you should stay ahead of the trends in healthcare so you can always be pitching articles about emerging health topics – while using your nursing knowledge to inform that content in ways non-clinician writers simply cannot.   On today’s episode of The RN2writer Show, we’re covering the five most fascinating health trends of 2024 that should be on your radar so you can niche up and become the go-to expert writer on these subjects for any editor!  Host Elizabeth Hanes, BSN RN, built a six-figure writing business in her spare time.
