At some point in you career you will have multiple projects at the same time and, for most of us who want to work full-time as copywriters, having multiple clients is the goal! Many of you may be experiencing this already and, if you've had to juggle multiple deadlines, you know it isn't always easy.

Nicki and Kate are sharing their top tips for managing several projects and clients at the same time. The good news is there is basically zero chance that every client you pitch is going to get back to you at the exact same time and want the work right away. You will, however, likely have projects in various phases of the project process. Here's what that looks like and how to best manage your schedule.

At some point in your copywriting career, you'll likely have a client that asks you to do a copy test. A copy test is a way for them to gauge whether or not you're a good fit for the job, particularly if they're hiring for a full-time job and want to find the best candidate for their role. 

That said, clients have many ways of conducting copy tests, whether it's a timed copy test, small project, or several projects. Some are paid and some are unpaid. So, how do you navigate copy tests while protecting and valuing your time? Nicki and Kate dig into all the options you have when faced with a copy test.
