65. Freelance Contracts Masterclass with Brian Speronello

BONUS 14: Freelance Contracts Masterclass with Brian Speronello
Hey, Brian Speronello here.

I’ve been freelancing over the past 10 years, so I’ve signed my fair share of contracts.

And I’ve seen how a couple of innocent sentences could come back biting me in the behind when shit hits the fan.

Many copywriters know that a contract is important because there are legal implications to it.

But from my experience, this aspect of a copywriting business comes off as something that is “foreign”, especially for copy cubs.

In fact, it remains shrouded in mystery even to those who have been in the industry for a few years already.

Now you may be thinking…

You’re just a copywriter right? Why do you need to know about all this legal jargon?

WRONG.

A contract could be the difference between getting paid on time and getting ghosted after you’ve done the work.

It could mean bearing hefty legal costs personally when the FTC deems the copy you wrote isn’t compliant.

Or you could be breaching your contract unknowingly when you share your work as your portfolio, so you have to compensate your client unnecessarily.

That’s why in this video, I’ll be conducting a masterclass on freelance contracts…

So you’ll know what you’re getting into and how to protect yourself should the need arise.

This masterclass will cover the following:

- The basics of contract structure, including the technical terms to how you should write out the agreed amount of compensation for your work.

- [FREE CHECKLIST] This is the exact, 20-point checklist I use whenever I get a contract from a client. This includes the 6 key sections and key terms for 5 sections.

- A complete swipe file to add technical terms to your own contract that are going to tip the scale in your favor.

- Plus, how to create a legit contract that’s legally binding and enforceable for as little as $2 per contract.

I hope this gives you a better understanding of how to structure your own contracts with future clients and protect yourself should things go south.
