Freelancing should make you feel free.
If it’s starting to feel like slavelancing, something isn’t right.
Cheap clients with cheap rates who expect the world isn’t exactly what you imagined when you ventured into this world.
For most freelancers, that’s the sad reality.
Instead of freelancing becoming a ticket to a different lifestyle or extra money on the side, it becomes an exhausting endeavor that most people quit within a year.
Look, I’m not going to sit here and promise you that you’ll become a millionaire overnight, but with a little guidance you can cut off years of mental overwhelm and bad projects. You can start to be proud that you’ve chosen this path.
Hiring a coach years ago was the single key factor that saved me years of struggling.
Even after hiring a coach, I still had times where I thought, “I can do things my own way!” and ended up struggling again. (Pro tip: don’t do that. Your coach knows more than you.)
Don’t get me wrong, it’s still damn hard work. There’s no secret recipe that will take out the hustle required.
If you’re already working yourself to the bone, you should be seeing the rewards.
If you’re not, it’s time to make some changes.
Month-long coaching program
The month-long coaching is perfect for someone fully-committed. Whether you’ve already worked as a writer of you want to officially start, this is much more in-depth than the power hour.
Requirements:
Some pieces you’ve written - you’ll need something to send potential clients. If you don’t have any pieces, I’d recommend starting with the Power Hour option. However, even if you don’t have pieces but you still want the full month, just mention this in the application.
Application - compared to the power hour, I want to make sure I can actually help you during the full month. I wouldn’t want to waste your time, so there is an application for the coaching.
30 minutes of dedicated time Monday through Friday to spend on this (If you can spend more time, you’ll get faster results!) - (Note: This is just for you to work on the assignments every day, we don’t meet every day.)
Send me results from the week (either Friday or the next Monday) based on the metrics we decide (pitches sent, replies heard back, deals locked down, pages written, etc.) so we can tweak for the next week if needed.
A mastery of basic grammar and spelling - be sure to double check everything in your application because I will be keeping an eye out for this.
Your thoughts at the end of the month on how it worked for you. This is a new program I’m offering so as much feedback as possible would help.
The coaching can include:
Everything in the power hour
Optional: Weekly calls to keep you on track
If you want someone to teach you copy, then each week I will create mock assignments and give detailed feedback.
Me looking over your copy before you send it to clients to make sure you’re sending the best work you can (This does NOT include me rewriting it - that’s not an option)
Helping you navigate client negotiation. Get an email from a potential client during our month but you’re not sure how to answer? I have your back!
If you want to buy more months after the first initial month, you can do that.
There’s not really a set-in-stone way I approach working with each person, it’s really up to your own goals and where you’re at. We tweak the plan each week so we can be sure to hit your ultimate goal by the end of the month.
The program is currently closed, but stay tuned for when it opens again!
Refund policy on the month-long coaching program: You can receive a full refund any time before we start. Once we’ve gone through the whole month, no refunds are available. Partial refunds may be available but are on a case-to-case basis.
What past students have to say:
"I started with no copywriting experience.
Getting in a new field of work is really hard. With Jackie’s guidance, after 3 weeks, I had a built portfolio and am currently pitching potential clients!
Needless to say that Jackie is an amazing copywriting mentor!
Jackie provided me with weekly hands-on assignments, practical advice and resources, and more importantly with the support that I needed, all of which were building toward my goals of getting into copywriting and having a portfolio by the end of the mentorship. I trust her expertise, and love her laid-back and quirky personality!
I will do this ALL OVER AGAIN!” - Helene Vo - https://www.copywriteyourvision.com/
“6 out of 5 stars. ”
Hi I’m Tim Nowhen. I took Jackie’s one month copywriting mentorship. Thanks to Jackie’s direct coaching, advice, tips, resources, and step by step guidance. I was able to land 2 clients within weeks of starting her mentorship.
I made 4x the amount I paid for. I applied her knowledge to my client’s projects and they are happy to keep me around. I even got a client as a monthly retainer.
Having Jackie around really helped boost my confidence in my copywriting. When I had a question. She was happy to answer thoroughly.
She gave me the secrets needed to get ahead. Her 10+ years of experience really shows.
I highly recommend anyone on the fence to take Jackie’s mentorship.
I didn’t hit the ground running. I started with rocket boots.
