When What You Really Want Is a Life?
Imagine instead getting paid to shop, working
with animals, writing about NASCAR, working for yourself,
touring the country in an RV or living on a boat, designing
costumes, working at the Grand Canyon or for the Peace
Corps, working from home, starting your own non-profit,
living overseas, or living rent free as a professional
caretaker. People do it every day... and so can you.

Great Ways to Make a Living
Without a

These first seven resources all come from the American Writers and
Artists Institute. To learn more about the AWAI, and why I think so
highly of their career-changing programs, click here.
If You Can Write a Simple Letter,
You Can Earn a Great Living as a Freelance Copywriter
Simply put, a copywriter is someone who
uses words to sell products, services, or causes. One huge perk of
being a
freelance copywriter is the flexible lifestyle. You
can earn your living from anywhere in the world – on the road in
your RV, a London flat, an island, or your own home. The self-paced
course is outstanding and includes individual feedback from an AWAI
instructor. Plus they show you everything you need to know to start
getting paid assignments. Top copywriters earn mega-six figure
incomes. Most people average more in the $40,000 – $80,000
range. I've personally met dozens of people who've been able to quit
their job in as little as a year and are now working as freelance
copywriters.
Read my complete course review
and meet the instructors and people who've taken the course.
Listen
to
Katie Yeakle, Executive Director of American Writers & Artists
Institute, and Krista Jones, a freelance copywriter answer questions
about being a professional copywriter.
Become a Paid
Travel Writer The American
Writers & Artists Ultimate Travel Writer's Program is a 269 page course that teaches you everything
you need to know to launch your career as a paid travel writer.
Topics include insider's secrets to successful interviews, how to
make editors happy and eager to work with you, and where to find
freelance assignments. As a freelance writer, you'll enjoy earning
extra money doing what you love (traveling!), you'll get legitimate
and often substantial tax write offs for travel, entertainment,
books, computers, and more. Plus, you'll have the freedom to work
from anywhere in the world, at your own pace, as your own boss.
I have
personally reviewed the self-study version of this course as well as
attended the live workshop and can tell you without reservation that both
are outstanding.
Listen to Jennifer Stevens, writer and
contributing editor for International Living, and Lori Appling, Manager of
the American Writers and Artists Institute's Travel Writing Program answer
questions about being a freelance travel writer.
Turn
Your Pictures Into Cash
What if you could earn $300, $800, or even $8,000 from a single
photograph? If you think it’s impossible to make $8,000 from a single
photo it’s because you haven’t met digital photographer Rich Wagner. But
I have. Rich was a speaker at one of my workshops. He’s made over $8,000
selling framed copies of a single picture he snapped of a hilltop tower
near his home in Connecticut. He’s also one of the developers of this
exciting course. In addition to meeting Rich, I’ve personally
reviewed the course and they are right when they say that it teaches
anyone, even the casual vacation photographer, the
secrets, tips,
techniques, and strategies you need to take profitable photographs and
have fun – including where to find paying clients.
Find out how easy
it is to travel the world snapping photos of exotic locations… meet people… and get PAID for it.
Make Money With Your Computer At Home
Okay,
here’s my challenge… In the space of a paragraph, how do I
clearly explain this much in-demand career, outline the eight reasons I
really like this self-paced course, tell you how you can make a very good
income working from home, and have your business up and running in as little
as six weeks? Two words… I don’t. But, if you have 60 seconds you can
read my complete review.
Start Your Own Resume Writing Business in Less Than a Week There
aren’t a lot of businesses you can start for $99. The Pro Resume Writing
Program gives you everything you need to set up and run your own successful
at-home business as a professional resume writer. In addition to learning
how to quickly and easily create resumes for a wide range of professions,
you’ll find a heavy emphasis on teaching you how to market and grow your
business. In the program description they talk about the potential to earn
six figures. If you take advantage of the various add-on services you’ll
learn about and focus on a high-end market (people who make six figures
expect to pay top dollar for a resume) then I’m sure some people can make
that much. But even if you generated more like $25,000 to $50,000, it’s a
pretty low risk way to launch a business on the side until you can quit your
day job or to just earn extra income.
How to Get Paid to Write Professional Fundraising Letters Not only is
writing fundraising copy a rewarding and very profitable endeavor, but the
sector is enormous and good copywriters are in great demand. A staggering
1.6 million charities raise funds in the U.S. each year. They range in size
and scope - from a neighborhood group looking to raise a few hundred dollars
to a shelter for stray dogs to organizations with a global reach like
Habitat for Humanity or the International Rescue Committee, which send as
many as 100 million direct-mail letters a year. Imagine how you'd feel
knowing that what you wrote helped 3 million people in 29 countries get
access to clean drinking water, provided safe, secure housing for 5,400
families in the US, protected 160,000 acres of timberland in Tennessee and
Oregon, or put 23 computers in the elementary school down the street. Now you can.
The Secrets of Writing for the Fundraising Market self-study
program from the American Artists and Writers Institute guides you
step-by-step on how to launch this lucrative and satisfying career.
Writing for Love and Money: How to Become a Successful Romance Writer
Each year, more romance novels are published than books in any other
category. With a lock on over 53% of all popular paperback books sold,
romance sales are more than double that of the next most popular genre
(mystery/detective/ suspense). And, over the past five years, the number of
romance readers in America grew from 41 million to well over 51 million. The
American Artists and Writers Institute offers the ultimate blueprint for
writing page-turning romance books that the market is so hungry for - and
since this is a self-study program you can learn your craft at your own pace
without quitting your day job.

floating around in your head? What if there was a writing program that has
such a track record of success that it actually promises graduates they will
complete at least two manuscripts suitable for submission to an editor by
the time they finish the program? A program that not only taught you
technique and matched you with a writing tutor who gave you line-by-line
feedback of your writing but also handed you the tools and the know-how you
need to break into print. Interested? I was. The Long Ridge Writer’s Group

Making Money as an Artist: How to Sell the Reproduction Rights
to Your Artwork for Profit
Who says you can’t make money from your art? You don’t have to
be a “fine artist” to have your images appear on greeting cards,
prints and posters, calendars, on collector plates, in books,
animation, for record companies, on coffee mugs, coasters,
clothing and fabric, gift bags, fabric, shower curtains –
virtually any surface that has a design. This comprehensive
course by art licensing guru Michael Woodward spells out step
how to get paid for your artwork. He ought to know. Over the
past 30 years he’s licensed over $600 million in retail goods.
Given that the artist earns a percentage of these sales, suffice
it to say, Michael is not your stereotypical “starving artist.”
By combining his personal “tricks of the trade” with a
storehouse of information on the art licensing world, he’s
compiled the most comprehensive course available today to guide
artists and photographers through the licensing maze so they can
start earning money from their art and beautifying the world in
the process.

You Don't Have To Be A Struggling Artist Forget all that nonsense about being a starving artist, writer or performer. In his newest book, "Unleash the Artist Within," Bob Baker walks you through a simple four-week program that will help you transform yourself into a self-promotion machine. He'll show you how to get exposure, attract fans, make more sales and get the respect, attention and prosperity you deserve. I know Bob. He's been at this a long time and knows what he's talking about.
How To Market & Prosper From Your Music Whether you're promoting your fast-growing indie label or your one-man or one-woman act from your basement, Bob Baker's Guerrilla Music Marketing Handbook has been described as the next best thing to a college course on music marketing.

TRAX: Get Your Music Heard
Too often we take for granted that everybody knows
what we know. A fellow Changing Course reader named Susan spent the last four
years working behind the scenes in a recording studio where she selected music
for advertisements and television for the likes of Nike, Foot Locker, Wendy's,
Citibank, Betty Crocker, Starbucks, Listerine, Sprint, AT&T, X-Box, Heineken,
Calvin Klein, NBC, MTV, Nickelodeon, and The Discovery Channel. Yet it took a
conversation with her musician brother-in-law to discover that most musicians
don’t know how easy it really is to get their music heard without an audition,
agents, or consulting company. So Susan used her insider knowledge to create a
step-by-step guide for musicians. The guide covers things like how to present
yourself like a pro, what industry professionals are really looking for
including how to lay out your tracks, key technical specs of the industry, and
how to package your work. According to Susan, once you know which professionals
to send your work to, you'll never be at a loss for contacts. That’s why her
book also includes sample contracts, industry links, and more a free list of
contacts, links, and addresses of industry professionals actively looking to buy
your music. For a limited time your purchase comes with a free evaluation of one
of your tracks.

Train Women To Do Their Own Home
Repair This woman-owned business seeks to
educate women to become confident, competent homeowners by offering
workshops and a range of lighter-weight tools designed to fit a
woman's grip. They're actively seeking entrepreneurial women to
learn how to become trainers and earn money on the sale of the
tools. Think of it as being an Avon rep but with tools. The Problem:
A friend tried it and discovered that it's not easy finding other
women who have the time to host an in-home party. My Work-Around
Idea: Hold your workshop at a local tile, furniture, window
treatment, or other store where home-owners shop. The store gets the traffic and you get free advertising and
meeting space. If you like this idea, look into combining it with running your own
Home Referral Network.
