  • 37. Copy, SEO, and a DIY Website Overhaul

    In this episode, Samantha shares what happened when she sat down with a friend and fellow local business owner to overhaul a DIY website that was costing her bookings. What started as a casual favor turned into a masterclass in what most small business owners get wrong when they build their own Squarespace site — and how to fix it without blowing a budget or hiring a full agency.

  • 36. Retain more clients in your DFY services, membership, and digital products

    In this episode, Samantha digs into one of the most underutilized sales strategies in the online business world: retention. If you're spending all your energy chasing new clients while your existing ones quietly slip away, this episode is for you. Samantha covers the copy and strategy moves that keep clients in your membership, coming back for your products, and hiring you again for done-for-you work — because former buyers are 67% more likely to purchase again than a brand-new lead.

  • 35. Always Be Selling - 7 sneaky places to add copy and make more sales

    In this episode, Samantha discusses all the places you're not using copy to sell — and how to fix that without writing a single extra sales page. Think of it as an audit of the real estate you already own but aren't monetizing: your email signature, your website's header and footer, your post-sale email sequence, your freebie, your slides, and even the videos you're already sending out. This one is practical, fast, and full of things you can implement today.

    Sales isn't a four-letter word here. If you're a business owner, you're here to sell — and Samantha walks through exactly how to make that happen with micro-copy that works in the background so you don't have to hustle harder.

  • 34. Copy Chats - How Breanna Owen Uses Human Design To Write Copy

    In this episode, Samantha sits down with Breanna Owen of Owen Your Mark for a candid conversation about what separates two copywriters who write emails for a living. Breanna uses human design theory to inform the emails she writes, eliminating the guesswork of which messaging strategies will feel good and convert for each business owner. Samantha brings the sales psychology and launch strategy angle, and together they dig into what it looks like when two copywriters geek out about the stuff most business owners don't even know to ask about.

    This one started as a Voxer thread and turned into a full episode. Worth it.

  • 33. What Are Copy VIP Days, And When Are They Better than Copy Projects?

    In this episode, Samantha breaks down her favorite way to work with clients: the copywriting VIP day. If you've ever wondered what done-in-a-day copywriting actually looks like (and whether it's right for you), this one's for you!

    Samantha walks through what she can realistically accomplish in a single seven-hour writing day, including a full website, a high-converting sales page, or a core set of launch emails. She also gets honest about what a VIP day isn't built for, so you can figure out whether this format or a longer project is the better fit before you reach out.

    This episode doubles as a behind-the-scenes look at how Samantha structures client work, complete with client results.

  • 32. The Ultimate Launch Email Guide

    In this episode, Samantha breaks down every category of launch emails you need to send for a successful launch — not just the sales emails everyone thinks of, but the full picture across seven categories and 40+ touchpoints. 

    (yeah, that's a LOT of emails!)

    She's been writing launch copy for seven years and over a hundred launches, and the most common gap she sees is service providers who treat "launch emails" like it's just the five-day open cart sequence. It's not.

    If you've ever finished a launch feeling like you could've sold more but you can't put your finger on why you didn't, this episode is probably what you were missing.

  • 31. How to Give Your Service Provider Feedback

    In this episode, Samantha discusses something that's been (spicily!) making the rounds in service provider circles: clients giving feedback that was clearly generated by AI. 

    A friend vented to her on Voxer, Samantha took it to Threads (see the conversation here), and the responses confirmed two things:

    1. Service providers DO NOT want AI-generated feedback and

    2. They also realize that giving feedback isn't easy

    So instead of leaving it at the rant, she breaks down what good client feedback looks like and why it matters to the process of working with a copywriter, designer, or other service provider.

    This episode is for anyone who has ever hired a service provider and found themselves unsure how to respond to a deliverable, AND for service providers who want some additional language around AI & feedback. 

    Giving feedback is a skill, and it's one worth developing.

  • 30. The Most Common Copywriting Mistakes in Q1 2026

    In this episode, Samantha shares the most common copy questions she got from Copy On Demand members in Q1 of 2026, straight from a private webinar she hosted just for them. Real talk: if her members are asking it, you're probably thinking it too. So she's bringing it to the podcast.

    This episode covers nurture emails, freebie copy, and the sales page vs. checkout page confusion that came up after her Funnels 101 series. Samantha breaks each one down with her signature blend of specifics, story, and zero patience for vague advice.

    What You'll Learn:

    • What your nurture emails should include (and the one thing every single email needs, no exceptions)
    • Why your freebie is probably really good, and also quietly costing you clients
    • The actual difference between a sales page and a checkout page, explained with lifting shoes and her own website
    • How assertive copy builds trust faster than any other tool in your arsenal
    • Why copy that says what something "isn't" is confusing your readers right out of your funnel

     Resources Mentioned: 

    • Funnels 101 series (start here!)
    • My fav lifting shoes

  • 29. Edu-selling: Sales That Feel Darn Good

    This episode is about edu-selling (I'm pretty sure I made that word up!). It's how I write copy that smooths your sales process, and helps your sales calls close faster. 

    And, on a more personal note, I tell a few stories about things I bought that felt really icky - like  the time I got got by a $6,000 coaching program I had no business buying (and only made $100 from what I learned in it lol).

    This is a 'good, bad, and ugly' episode that you'll want to take notes on!

    Key points covered in episode:

    • What edu-selling is and why it makes people feel good about giving you their money
    • Why my realtor who has sold millions of dollars doesn't consider herself a salesperson (and what that means for your business)
    • The coaching program horror story that shaped how I sell everything
    • Why renaming your discovery call could change the entire energy around it
    • How to use copy to smooth the sales process

    Additional resources mentioned:

    • Episode about pricing transparency
    • Submit a copy confession
    • Trust recession episode
