The Writer Files: Writing, Productivity, Creativity, and Neuroscience

How Pamela Wilson (VP of Educational Content for Copyblogger) Writes

Listen Later

Award-winning designer and marketing consultant Pamela Wilson — who has helped small businesses and large organizations alike create ”big brands” since 1987 — stopped by to chat about what it’s like to run the blog at Copyblogger.com, and her mission to publish impeccable online content.

As head of the editorial team for Copyblogger Media, she helps guide an abundance of educational content for one of the top online marketing, blogging, and copywriting sites in the world.

Pamela’s unique point-of-view comes from the marriage of design, branding, content, and conversion — something she has coined “Customer Experience Design.”

In this file Pamela Wilson and I discuss:

  • How Coming Late to Writing Can Work in Your Favor
  • Why Useful Content Creates Priceless Inroads for Writers
  • The Difficulty of Designing a Remarkable Online Presence
  • How Writing Has Become Her Yoga Practice
  • Why You Should Commit to Writing 750 Words a Day
  • The Hallmarks of Great Online Writing
  • Why Picasso is an Inspiring Model for Writers to Follow
