Copywriters are a little unique in that they use their own work to bring in more business. If your work has been inconsistent you should consider using a sales letter to generate leads. Once you figure out how much business you can expect from a certain amount of sales letters sent out, you can better control your work load. You can make sure you have business when you want it; you can send more letters out when you have more time to work or you can send out less when life get busier.

Sales letters can help you with telemarketing clients, or even gaining new ones. Telemarketing has become a very difficult business recently due to high turnover and new laws. A sales letter can help make your telemarketing clients more effective and possibly reduce turnover. If you can quantify your savings by training employees, you will have many telemarketing companies coming to you because you have shown yourself effective in their difficult market.

Approaching doctors and dentists is the last little tid-bit to help maximize your sales letters. These professionals are often looking for more clients. A well-made sales letter could help stimulate their referrals.

These were just a few ideas from Dan Kennedy's book. This book is very helpful by revealing new sources of business. Hopefully this article will help you make more money as a copywriter.
