How to Recruit Writers for Your Online Project
It seems many people have some sort of an online project they are working on in some line of expertise. Then they need content which most likely they want for free and do not wish to pay for. Cheap bastards indeed, yet they get writers to sign up and help them out; but why would someone do this? Well because they use psychological recruitment techniques and you have to watch out for these. What are they you ask?
Well, they try things like this; “We are looking for a few Charter Members for this very important project and we picked you due to your writing ability.” Well this is poppycock if I ever heard it as there are so many authors why do they need you? The truth is that they don’t, they sent the same email letter of BS to many authors in fact. In fact this is not their only special project, as they might have ten or more involved. Such utter crap I tell you, it sure makes me angry when they try to pull a fast one over on me. And it has happened so many times that it so obvious. Someone should shoot these scam artist whores (opinion).
Another technique they use is to promise you links, exposure and all sorts of other incentives; so what? Are you such a hard up writer that you need a better way to promote yourself by signing up with every Tom, Dick or Harry who offers you exposure in trade for working for free? No wonder you are broke and you deserve to stay that way too. Additionally if you are so depressed that you need someone to tell you that you are great so bad that you are willing to let them manipulate you into working for free then you are hopeless and I do not even know why you bothered to read this little bit of wisdom. Consider all this in 2006.
