WCP41 Sorting and archiving freelance articles

Whether your articles are published online or in print, you need to be able to make them readily available for potential clients to read online. Simply having a list of links isn’t sufficient.

In this episode, we look at practical tools that solve how to archive freelance articles published online and how to create digital copies of paper clips.
