Could use some help, reassurance or a kick in the A$$
I’ve been working with a local YMCA to help increase attendance in their before and after school care program (Kids Express).

Hey fellow Marketing Rebels,
My name is Ralston. I’m a long-time lurker here but first-time poster.

I’ve been writing copy for several years now and have gotten complacent with the few clients that I have. What suggestions do you have for attracting new clients? I know that as a “copywriter” I should have no problems… and yet I haven’t been looking for a while. Any suggestions as to what is working for others to build their business?
Thank…Read more

Hi Aaron: Unless your wife is a copywriter, I would not give it to her for advice.
I suggest you get John and Stan to review your letter. In order to do that you need to request a hot seat (link in the right-hand column). Thanks.
