Hello quick question, what are the requirements needed from a copywriter to start applying for jobs online? So far I have been analyzing different copy formats and have my own swipe file, mostly johns work. However I am now at a stage where I understand copy and can come up with ideas and model existing copy. But I am struggling to know what is…Read more

Hi, Jalal.
I don’t know that there are any “requirements” per se other than being able to write well, follow instructions, meet deadlines, and know the basics of email marketing, sales pages and other formats.

Owen, congratulations on getting your account back.
Medium can be a good medium — but I would just say that it’s not just the quality of your posts, isn’t part of success there also how effectively you drive traffic to those posts in the first place?

Hi Jalal,
Depending on the product, I love falling into the rabbit hole of Amazon reviews.
