Hey John
Thank you so much for your advice; it really cleared the fog
I thought weight loss was where the best copywriting happened (embarrassing to admit now).
Plus, the money involved is a motivator.
I want to acknowledge the reality check in regards to my opinionsAnd the fact that I should expect to get hurt occasionally makes it…Read more

Hey guys,
I am a rookie email copywriter looking to get into the weight loss supplement niche and I’ll need some clarification on finding clients.
Some context:
I want to write emails for weight loss supplement businesses, but I’m finding it hard to find clients.
Maybe I’m making it hard because I’m not looking for Click Bank weight…Read more

I have a question for the group!
So, I’m not a fan of social media. I came a bit late to the party and feel like building an audience on platforms like Twitter is an impossible task at this point, where it’s totally saturated with “copywriters”.
I started on LinkedIn and grew VERY quickly. Getting over 3200 followers in my first…Read more

Well, first step is to get over your bad self, and start tolerating social media as a client-getting tool.
I’m a stone-cold introvert, and loathed showing up at potential client offices for interviews or to pick up job info, etc. But that’s what was needed, so I did it. (I also learned to speak on stage… where, surprise, I learned that nearly…Read more

I reread your question and see that you’ve been banned by LI. That sucks… but if that’s the only media you feel you can use right now, then make getting unbanned your priority job. Hound them until you get an answer.
Meanwhile, dedicate several hours a day to finding clients. You didn’t say you don’t have a phone, in your hypothetical. Or that…Read more

That was exactly the response I needed, John. Thank you!
I appreciate the detail you went into. And I also feel all of those methods you mentioned are totally overlooked these days. We are brainwashed by the online world. The feeling of panic when you lose a social media account, forgetting the world still operates and exists outside of it.

If there were a like button on this thing I would press it a whole bunch of times for John’s comments.

I agree David. It was the kick in the right direction I definitely needed.
The only way to top that is if Stan turned up and slapped me!

Hello, I just joined this group
I am a rookie copywriter I have been analyzing successful copy from John and a few other business that are proven for the past 2 months. I am doing this to get my brain familiar with copywriting and how others have successfully sold. While analyzing copy I am also practicing writing my own copy. What I believe…Read more

Welcome, Jalal.
A few suggestions:
1. Don’t just analyze, also hand copy great copy and even memorize some occasionally.
2. Create exercises for yourself when you analyze that put make you put the principles and techniques you learn into practice. Or immediately put them into practice in the “writing” part.
3. Get others to read your copy…Read more

Hi Chris.
No, you shouldn’t be targeting that market. You gave zero clues as to WHY you feel you are qualified to be in that market.
ALL weight-loss markets are crammed with scams. If you read my Kick-Ass book, you know that I wrote exactly ONE ad for the diet market… which was immensely successful… and I refused to write any more,, even…Read more
Chris, welcome.
The only thing I would add to what John said is that your offering to write “free” may not be as appealing as you think.
When I hear “free” in relation to copywriting I tend to run because for ME it’s anything but free in terms of the work I’ll have to put in, and it’s therefore often far less expensive to pay someone.
