Happy New Year, internet friends!
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who supported me through the ups and downs, especially those who shared encouraging words after my recent video where I debated quitting copywriting.
The top question I am always asked when it comes to building a business is around how someone can market themselves online.
“Okay, I have a website, I have the skills, but how do I actually get clients? Especially more than just one or two clients?”
Forget all of the hacks, tricks, optimized morning routines, AI, and everything else for a moment.
If you want to become a professional writer, you will have to do this ONE thing before you do anything else. What is it? (insert drum roll here) Write consistently.
I'm kidding, it wasn't actually written by AI, but I want to talk about it today.
There is no doubt that AI is here. Marketers are using it in droves and to think it won't have an impact on writers is insane.
There are currently two camps of people with AI I've seen: People who think the robots are god's gift and people who hate it and think it will have zero impact on writers.
A few people who have been following my YouTube channel have been asking why I switched to ConvertKit from Mailchimp.
The answer is simple: it’s my favorite email marketing platform for creators.
Through the years as a copywriter, I’ve tested almost every email marketing platform out there. I would say most of them are fine and get the job done. Write email -> send email. Done.
There are a lot of “pros” to being a freelance writer. You get to set your own schedule, choose your own projects, and in many cases focus on work that really excites and motivates you. There are some challenges as well, however, and chief among them is marketing.
Today’s blog is straight from the heart today.
We need to talk about creating supportive environments and following your dreams. Is it gonna get ~woo woo~? Probably. But do some of you need it? Also probably.
I don’t often get personal on the ~internet~, but in order to talk about today’s topic, there are a few things that you’ll need to know about my life and where I grew up.
When it comes to succeeding with your email marketing, there’s a lot of conflicting advice out there.
Should you have a million automations? Are you even successful if your list doesn’t have a million people? Shouldn’t you be making hundreds of thousands of dollars with every email you send?
It makes it incredibly hard for businesses to measure success or have any idea if they’re doing well.
We don't talk about first steps enough.
Recently, this topic has entered my mind a few times. A few of my closest friends are experiencing parenthood for the first time and babies' first steps are one of the most celebrated moments in their entire development.
It's Instagram-multiple-post-worthy for parents. It's a HUGE deal.
If you have been on the internet for any length of time, you have probably heard multiple people talk about how great of a career copywriting can be.
So, people dive into it and want to get started, but they have no idea where or how to find clients to pay them.
While all of the internet gurus want you to believe that you’re going to make $10K a month with one hour a work while you sip your margarita on the beach, I’m going to let you know that it’s going to take a little more strategy than that.
