From Part-Time Copywriter to Empire Builder


Listen Later

Amanda Foust is a shining example of someone who turned their passion into a profitable business. Her love of writing inspired her to learn a skill that she's used to build TWO successful businesses — Copywriting. She'll explain how important copywriting has been in BOTH of her businesses (including the one that has nothing to do with writing). Because, as she puts it, "I just don't know how you sell otherwise."

Key Insights

  • ​Give us some numbers...Amanda talks about the growth of her company, Homegrown, going from part-time work to achieving six-figure earnings and retiring their husband within five years
  • ​Knowing how to write good copy (or partnering with someone who can) is crucial for success​
  • ​AI-generated copy still needs human help to be more than mediocre
  • ​Coaches help people navigate imposter syndrome, loneliness, and lack of clarity by focusing on time management, productivity, and finding meaning in their work
  • ​Creating a community for learning is more effective than just offering a course
  • ​AI For Copywriters can help improve your marketing and learn to use AI as a tool to amplifiy your own voice, not replace it
