In about a couple of weeks from now, I will be fully working as a full-time copywriter. As a freelance copywriter, I intend to put into good use all of my experience writing copy for both the Internet and the print media. I am particularly more experienced in writing articles and a few ads and advertorials. But I also want to dabble into writing sales letters and other marketing collaterals.
As a freelance copywriter from the Philippines, I know have both some advantages and disadvantages from other copywriters in the western hemisphere. One advantage is that I can afford to charge cheaper rates because the cost of living in this country is not that high as in the United States. On the other hand, one disadvantage that I foresee is that some clients would think that my English grammar or writing style will not be as good as those who are natural, native English speakers. In that aspect I of course completely disagree.
I write and think in English. I am a graduate of Journalism from a school wherein English is the primary language. All of my writing experience are for the English language. In my own right, I am a capable and well-experience freelance copywriter.
