But I would like to suggest another differentiating factor that's a close second: client service. A big part of my success over the years has been due to repeat business. Keep clients happy, and they keep calling with more work. A freelance copywriter keeps clients happy by delivering great copy… and (this is going to sound trite, but it’s true) by being a nice person. By “nice” I mean being friendly, professional, easy to work with, helpful, on time, a problem solver, an expert. Bob, you’re right, of course.

Selling yourself is - in my opinion - often tougher than selling something or someone else. Agreed? I couldn’t agree more.

Let's say you have two people: Person #1 has remarkable sales and marketing skills and average technical skills. Person #2 has remarkable technical skills with average sales and marketing skills. By "average", I mean meeting the market requirement, not poor, not outstanding…just average. I believe Person #1 wins the contest of 1099s. Their average technical skills satisfy customers and their remarkable sales and marketing skills promote them to more and greater engagements. Person #2 Wows! their customers with technical skills however, they aren’t able to leverage their success as well as they should with their average sales and marketing skills. In Corporate American you see this all the time. Another great question!
