In case you thought content farms and work at home writing jobs were something new, here’s an ad clipping from a 1965 women’s magazine…
Make Money Writing ..short paragraphs!
The advertisement reads… You don’t have to be a trained author to make money writing. Hundreds now making money every day on short paragraphs. I tell you what to write, where and how to sell; and supply big list of editors who buy from beginners. Lots of small checks in a hurry bring cash that adds up quickly. No tedious study. Right to sell, right away. Send for free facts.
I bet you that guide is full of direct marketing gold. The kind of stuff that’s still relevant today.
