I’ve been a successful freelance journalist for more than ten years and I have tons of strategies, techniques and talent for finding relevant, high-paying, and worthwhile full-time and freelance journalism, communications, video, television, social media and editing jobs on the market.
Here are six reasons that this paid Six Figure Journalism Jobs newsletter is different from all the others on the market.
1. All Freelance Journalism Gigs Pay a Minimum of $1 Per Word OR MORE
There was a time when $1 per word was a minimum. Today, with the advent of AI, mass layoffs, and more, it’s getting more difficult to find calls-for-pitches that pay this minimum. Each week, I curate freelance gigs and calls directly from editors that pay a minimum of $1 per word or offer an excellent byline opportunity (especially if you’re looking to broaden the type of coverage you do or want to move into a new beat).
Paid subscribers to my jobs newsletter get a different curated list in their inbox each week. I also do my best to include outlets you’ve heard of (or those with outstanding reputations), in case you’re looking to shift coverage.
2. Editor’s Email Addresses, Coverage Notes & Pitching Guides are Included in Every Newsletter
Stop wasting your valuable time trying to construct an editor’s email address. Each freelance call includes a way to contact the right editor. No searching is necessary.
I always recommend that monthly paid subscribers archive these emails as a valuable way to update contacts and keep the right editor contacts on hand when you have a great pitch that you want to send. I’m also currently working on building a database of editor names aemail addresses
3. All Jobs & Freelance Gigs are Fully-Remote
I have been a remote worker for most of my career and know that being remote is tremendously valuable as a freelancer and full-timer. All jobs included in this weekly paid newsletter are full-remote unless they offer a fantastic opportunity, in which case, I note where they are located.
In the cases where the job is not remote, I note it at the end of the listing like this:
4. All Full-Time Journalism & Communications Jobs Pay a Minimum of $100,000 Per Year OR MORE
Yes. Really. I work hard to find these jobs for paid subscribers and include them in each weekly newsletter. After all, we’re skilled, talented, and highly-experienced professionals and we should be paid professional, living-wage salaries.
5. I Have Been Working in Journalism & Communications For More Than 15 Years & Provide Insights You Won’t Find Anywhere Else
Want to know what an office environment is really like? I’ve got you. I have worked in many places with many talented (and, sadly, horribly untalented) people. This newsletter is for you if you want the inside scoop on many major media outlets. I pull no punches (and you can always email me for more details if you have questions about my “Editor’s Notes.”)

6. You Don’t Have to Troll the Job Listings Each Week Yourself
I do the work for you every single week. The newsletter goes out on Wednesday mornings at 9 a.m. PT.
When you sign up for a monthly $5 subscription, I send you the most recent newsletter (which includes links to the last four weeks of past newsletters) and add you to the ongoing list.
