"Do you think I can really write my own website copy? I'm not a copywriter. What if it's bad?" I get why people ask this. There's an entire industry telling you that you need to hire a professional copywriter and that DIY copy always ends up sounding wrong. 

But here's what I actually believe: You can absolutely write your own website copy. The problem isn't that you can't write—it's that you don't have a system for getting it out of your head in a clear and strategic way.

In this episode, I'm breaking down why you're a great choice of person to write your copy, what makes DIY copy work, and what you don't need to be successful. This is a short episode about my group program Rewrite Your Site, which gives you the framework, checkpoints, and expert editing you need to write your own website copy without drowning in overwhelm or uncertainty.
