The Juice is visiting the doc! Today we’re chatting with Scott Wicken, the voice behind Dr. Squatch, a natural body care brand sold in major retailers including Walmart, Target, and Ace Hardware.

As Lead Copywriter for Dr.Squatch, Scott’s responsible for all the copy consumers see, so we didn’t hold back when it came to getting into the Juice of how to create compelling copy. Scott shares with us his philosophy for great copy, the nuances of creating copy for different channels, and the importance of maintaining a consistent brand voice.

We also travel back in time and discuss how Scott transitioned from the structured world of finance into the fun, creative world of consumer brands.

And most importantly, we ask Scott the juicy question we all want to know - Will AI replace writers? Scott gives us his candid take on AI, how it’s impacted his profession, and where he sees it going.

We’re squeezing out all the Juice from Scott so this is an episode you don’t want to miss!
