We Are Here for You Every Step of the Way
Ian Chandler, your course instructor, started his writing career from scratch. He’s now a full-time freelance writer with years of experience. He knows what it’s like to start without a portfolio or any previous experience.
When Ian started, he was a college student with no mentor, and no extra support from experienced freelancers. He had the passion and the drive to succeed, and he did it the hard way: by trial and error. Fortunately, you don’t have to learn on your own. We created this course to give you a shortcut to success as a freelance writer, with the guidance from someone who has been there before.
Ian is there every step of the way to support you and your writing career. You’ll get daily study materials and access to our support forum. Everything is available on our learning platform, so you can access it any time. That means you’ll be able to study at your own pace, replay the webinars, and refer back to the course content at any point, even once the course is finished.

We Love It When Our Students Succeed
“After taking Ian’s class, the money I was able to earn from my writing allowed me to finally visit my family in Brazil (it had been 5 years since I had last been there). The material in Ian’s course is easy to understand and actionable, and you will come out of this course feeling (and acting) like a professional writer who gets paid for your words.”
