What’s the real difference between a copywriter and a ghostwriter? In today’s episode, I’m diving into the differences and similarities between copywriting and ghostwriting—a topic that’s piqued my interest and curiosity over the last few months. As more and more copywriters start calling themselves ghostwriters, I couldn’t help but wonder: Is there a real distinction, or is it just smart branding?

Through my own research, polls, and deep dives into industry definitions, I uncover what each type of writer really does and when you should hire one over the other. 

Plus, I share insights on how to find a writer who can truly capture your brand’s voice—because at the end of the day, that’s what really matters. If you’re a business owner looking to outsource your writing, a writer navigating your positioning, or just someone who loves a good word nerd debate, this episode is packed with insights you won’t want to miss!

Topics Covered in this Episode:

• Why some copywriters are rebranding as ghostwriters—and if it’s just a marketing strategy
• The biggest difference between copywriting and ghostwriting
• A key question to ask before hiring a writer to make sure they "get" your voice
