Blimey this half hour is going so fast! My last question is: Free websites vs paid-for websites: is it worth investing in a web designer to create a website and increase SEO, or do you use one of those free web design sites such as Wix or Squarespace? #contentclubuk

2. When you started your freelance business, what did you find was the most effective way to attract clients? Do you target them directly, or do you wait for them to come to you? #contentclubuk

So, my first question is: 1. I'm a BBC news journalist, a proofreader, a radio presenter, a radio producer, and a copywriter. When you market yourself to potential new clients, do you think it is better to list ALL the skills you have, or focus on one? #contentclubuk

When marketing yourself to new clients, should you list all the skills you have? E.g. copywriter, radio presenter, proofreader, voice-over artist, and journalist. #contentclubuk
35% Yes, to get more clients
65% No, best to focus on one
