As a freelance writer you primarily create content, for both your clients and yourself. If you are in a position where you fling your words out to the world and never think of them again, you are missing a trick and probably wasting at least some of your time (and your clients' money!). If, instead, you measure how effective your content is, you can quickly learn what works and what doesn't, what readers can relate to and what they ignore, and when you pay attention to what you discover and apply it to your future work, you will find that the content you produce makes an impact.

It's an unfortunate truth that freelancers can be subject to oppressive behaviours from the clients they work with. Women, as well as members of minority groups, can be particularly at risk of being treated with a lack of respect or even downright abuse, especially if they work in traditionally male-dominated areas. In this podcast episode, Lorrie and Philippa discuss how freelancers can recognise when they are being treated inappropriately, and what they can do when it happens.
