In reply to BB. Hi, BB! You are very welcome! I got a laugh out of "recovering copywriter." :) Do you think you'll get back into copywriting eventually?

What a fantastic article! Just what I needed. I’d call myself a recovering copywriter (LOL) after choosing a niche I ended up hating and walking away from. I became a bit discouraged. But I’m happy I found this article, it has given me perspective. Thank you:-)

Love the tips Heather, however and thinking about Laura’s question, what if you do dial it in on a niche and after a while discover you wanna try out something different, how would you reflect that in your website without looking completely inconsistent/and or deleting everything that was previously done and starting from scratch?

Hi, Laura!

A website is certainly helpful as an easy way to showcase your clips. BUT, I wouldn’t let a website hold you back from hustling for work. If nothing else, you can build a very general site now…and then, dial it in when you figure out what you want to be when you grow up. :)

Does this help?

Hi Heather, Your post really resonated with me, but I have a question. How important is it to set up a website in the beginning before choosing, and allowing myself to feel, a niche? I have many interests and skills, yet, I cannot choose or focus on one niche. I would like to try a few different areas. Thanks for giving me permission to explore more possibilities with your blog . Just not sure if not having a website to point prospective clients will hinder the process of growing my business.

Just jump in and do your best – eventually, you’ll find a niche you excel at. In the meantime, you’ll be getting paid to figure this stuff out. Vacillating from one possibility to another without committing yourself … doesn’t.

Hey Heather, great article about selecting your niche and moving forward. I am intimately acquainted with obsessing. According to the personality test Joshua Boswell offers through his various AWAI programs I’m a Melancholy, so obsessing is my natural tendency as is ad nauseam research and analysis. Fortunately, with some help, I’ve learned to overcome those natural tendencies and not only select a niche for my freelance copywriting business, but reach the point where I’ll officially launch my copywriting business in less than two weeks!
