What if you had to write copy for a niche, topic, or subculture you’re just not connected with?
This is a very real problem.
And I think it comes up pretty often — especially if you’re in an agency or similar situation where you’re in even less control over who you’re writing for.
… Then again, I think pretty much ALL of us copywriters have taken on a project or two from a client where we’re really not a fit for their market, just because they had money to give us.
(I know I have.)
Anyway, I had a subscriber ask this.
We’ll call her J. She said she’s writing in the motorcycle market. And she’s not a biker… Or motorcyclist… Or whatever they call themselves!
In today’s episode I share my reply and how I’d handle this challenge.

He’s a NEW copywriter… Asking what to do to get to $5k+ per month in income… From scratch… Within the next 6 months.
Honestly it’s probably a better question than most times I get it…
Because most times I get a similar question, the timeline is YESTERDAY.
As in, how to go from zero experience to moderately successful without ANY room to actually build that up or accomplish it.
So I figured, what the heck? Why not…
And in today’s episode, I break it all down.
I explain why a lot of Upwork and job site copywriters are going to struggle to ever hit $5,000 per month…
I give one really simple breakdown that gives clarity and makes it so much easier if you want to consistently hit $5k/month.
And I give some solid pointers for what to focus on to achieve this goal.
If you want to know how to make money as a copywriter, make sure you listen carefully to this entire episode…

If you want your marketing to generate a ton of leads, customers, sales, and profits, you MUST get good at overcoming objections…
And I’m not talking about the trite objections like…
“Oh I can’t afford it…” or “Let me think about it…”
I’m talking about the objections at the heart of your pitch, long before you even ask them for money.
I’m talking about the objections where the prospect stops caring what you have to say, or stops believing the blabbering coming out of your mouth (or keyboard)...
And there are 2 key, fundamental objections that are like filters in the prospect’s subconscious mind that are at the very heart of this issue.
What are they? Well, dive into today’s episode to find out…
Here are the 2 biggest objections you need to overcome — and how to do it!

How do you format the copy documents you send to clients, if you want to look like a professional copywriter?
Although this seems like a very practical question, it’s packed with emotion underneath.
What will your clients think of you if you send them copy that’s not well-formatted, even designed?
Will they think you’re a true professional?
Or will they assume you’re not good enough?
That you’re not worth the money they spent?
(That train of thought goes down a dark tunnel real quick.)
I’ve been in marketing since 2005, a full-time freelancer since 2010, and have NEVER had someone tell me that my copy docs should be better formatted.
So, what level of formatting do I do?
The answer is in today’s episode…
Copywriting: Formatting Docs to Send to Clients

“Copywriting is the secret to profitable sales funnels…”
It’s a blessing and a curse when clients believe this.
A blessing, because they’re willing to spend a lot of money for copywriters, in the hope it will make money show up.
A curse, because if this other thing is wrong — the #1 secret to profitable sales and marketing funnels — there’s a big risk your copywriting will fail, and you’ll take the blame.
Which begs the question: What IS the #1 secret to profitable sales funnels?
Well, my friend, you’ll need to dive into today’s episode for…
The answer to the question of what makes sales funnels profitable.

You might be surprised how easy it is to get your first shot at working with some really good copywriting clients.
If you haven’t tried yet, you don’t know how hungry they are for copywriters.
If you show moderate ability and an ability to take on a trial project, you can often get hired.
BUT…
For many copywriters, the second project is elusive.
Including a subscriber who asked me this question today.
How do you keep the quality clients coming back? How, once you’re in the door, do you get them to keep giving you money?
Here’s how to get and KEEP better copywriting clients…
