21. Write a Book
As a writer, why not write a book?
You can market it on Amazon and promote it on your blog. It’s the perfect way to get paid for your writing! Writing a book or an eBook doesn’t have to take a long time either.

Unlikely Ways to Make Money Fast
2. Your Spam Folder
Do you ever check your spam folder?
I’m guilty of not checking very often. I get so many emails in a day that checking my spam isn’t a priority. But, if you’re new to freelance writing and are pitching your little heart out, then make it a habit to check your spam folder.
A course student did this and couldn’t believe what she found:
I was sitting here bummed about not getting any inbound leads since hitting first page of Google 2 weeks ago, then it hit me to check my spam folder…bam! 5 messages! They all came from people filling out the form.
Her suggestion is that if you have a contact form on your site, to check your spam folder periodically. It can result in long-term work.
3. Your Email Signature
Having an email signature is a great way to jog the memory of prospective clients.
But, it also works for landing freelance work. When you create that email signature, any email you send will have it. So whether you send an email to a blogger friend or to a company, each email will be marketing your services, increasing your chance of work.
This happened to a course student. She said,
I got a job offer by emailing a WP theme company I used to tell them I loved their product. They saw from my signature line I was a freelance writer and asked me to do some work for them after checking out my portfolio.
4. Guest Posting – for Free!
I landed a gig by guest posting for free. I never thought this was a legit way to make money fast, but it is – it’s just an unlikely way.
The blog owner accepted my pitch and I wrote the post. She then asked if I would be interested in graphic work and I said yes. Then she emailed me again and asked if I wanted to write some posts.
And she did hire me to write some ghostwriting and byline posts. So, make sure your guest post is stellar and be professional when you email the blog owner.
