About Ashley Cook: As a survivor of corporate America, Ashley Cook knew there was more to life than a cubicle. After 13 years of sales, marketing, and analytics, the winds of change finally blew. Ashley decided it was time for new beginnings.

But she didn't want to abandon her experience. So, she repurposed it. Instead of partnering with major corporations, Ashley shifted into serving emerging brands and small business owners.

Always a lover of a good story, Ashley now partners with mission-driven entrepreneurs. She does this through copywriting, copy coaching, and retail storytelling.

Over the course of her career, Ashley has written for solopreneurs and major Fortune 500 companies. She's worked in a myriad of industries, from health and hygiene to fitness, food, and coaching. She’s developed copy for multi-million dollar brands, social media influencers, and small start-ups.

• Importance of creating a plan
• What copywriting is and what it’s not
• Five steps to knocking out your copy
• Strategies to get your words down and out there

Key Takeaways:

 

• Copywriting is not what you learned in school; not the strict grammar, preposition or conjunctions
• The purpose of copywriting is to persuade someone to take an action
• Copy can repel your ideal customer because your words may not resonate with them, or you could draw in the wrong crowd
• Consider these five steps the next time you write copy:  Plan, Draft, Edit, Publish, Assess

" Copywriting at its heart is writing to persuade someone to take a certain action, whether that's double tap to like this post or go sign up for your free ticket here." —  Ashley Cook

• Making your audience feel something
   

Key Takeaways:

 

• Stories have a universal appeal, it’s an effective tool of communication for everyone of all ages. 
• Listening to a story releases a neurochemical, Oxytocin, in our body. That’s the chemical that helps build bonds, elicits empathy and cooperation. It also motivates positive reciprocal behavior. 
• There are three types of stories that everyone can tell: stories of continuity, novelty, or transition. These are all good places to start to create a narrative. 
• Whenever you tell a story, your audience feels something. They may forget the story that you said, or what it’s even about, but they’re never going to forget how you made them feel.

In this episode, Chabidaye discussed: 

• Priority is key
• Proactive rather than reactive
• Prioritizing important versus urgent
• How many priority items for each day

Key Takeaways:

• Prioritization is key in leadership. As a leader, you not only need to prioritize your time but your team’s. They need to know what’s the focus and what they need to work on.
• Plan proactively instead of reactively. Proactive means choosing what to prioritize. As leaders, we have the power to choose what to do and where to put your attention.
• Important items need to take precedence over urgent. Take time to look at each task, compare them, and then assess both their importance and their urgency.
• Try to prioritize three things each day and schedule it on your calendar. Priority is something you get done today, and it must not be moved to the next day.

"Having too many priorities makes us feel overwhelmed… Know what to say no to, so that we can make space in our lives for the things to say yes to. " —  Chabidaye Jaglal Ramnath

In this episode, Chabidaye discusses:

• Do you have imposter syndrome? 
• The five subgroups of people affected by imposter syndrome
• The eight ways to counter that negative voice
• Reaching out and asking for support

Key Takeaways:

• Imposter syndrome is when you feel that you’re inadequate and incompetent despite evidence that proves otherwise. Maybe you haven’t thought of yourself as a fraud or imposter but perhaps you brushed off your success as luck or being in the right place at the right time. 
• There are five subgroups of people that are affected by imposter syndrome: the perfectionist, the superwoman/superman, the natural genius, the soloist and the expert. 
• Celebrate your achievements. Be kind to yourself. Be mindful of the ways you treat yourself. Learn to take mistakes in stride. Take action. Don’t count on external validation. Review what you’ve recently accomplished.Talk about what you’re feeling. 
• When we start hearing these negative things, there is no shame in reaching out and asking for support. The last thing we wanna do is to listen to that voice and go down a cycle of depression. It’s okay to put your hands up and say we need help. 

"Start getting celebration as a habit that you incorporate daily, weekly, monthly, and in the year so that you can build confidence and work on your momentum to move yourself through." —  Chabidaye Jaglal Ramnath

In this episode, Chabidaye discusses:

• Snoozing your alarm 
• Three things to NOT do
• Tips on what you can add to your day
• Letting yourself feel good 

Key Takeaways:

• Snoozing your alarm and waking up anxious or overwhelmed with what you must do on the day is not a good recipe for a successful day. 
• First, don’t log into work right after rolling back out of bed. Second, don’t start your day with your phone. And lastly, don’t rush to start your morning chores. The first thing you do in the morning matters for the rest of the day, and it will affect you in the long term. 
• Make the time, wake up an hour earlier. Read motivational books that will fill your mind with good, do journaling and exercise. Take 50 minutes to focus on tasks and take 10 minutes to rest
• Take a moment to just feel good that you were able to make progress. Also, make sure to schedule time daily to recharge and relax.

"In corporate we only celebrated when the project ended and it’s sad because some of those projects went on for more than two years. Pausing to celebrate each day at the progress that we’ve made in our projects builds momentum and you get the confidence to keep moving forward." —  Chabidaye Jaglal Ramnath

In this episode, Chabidaye discusses:

• Taking inventory of your wins
• Reflecting and remembering
• Casting a vision, living your dream
• Setting a destination 

Key Takeaways:

• Start the year by focusing on the wins - both big and small - that you’ve had last year. Ponder each month and search for each win, each goal that you’ve achieved, each lesson you’ve learned or skill you’ve adapted or improved. 
• End the year with deep contemplation and reflection of all things that have happened. Reflect on how much joy you feel about what you’re doing right now, does it fill you with fulfillment? Remember the major events that impacted you throughout. 
• Think about all the things you want to accomplish, using your wins and reflections of what you want to improve on as a basis. Cast a vision and live your dream. Don’t spend the next year drifting aimlessly  or living someone else’s dreams. 
• When you plan, make it a “draft” plan. Recognize that the plan may change as you grow and transform throughout the year. Plan each quarter of the year and add details as you get there. There isn’t ever only one road towards your goal, what’s important is that you know where you want to be. 

"You may think that you didn’t achieve the big goal so you shouldn’t celebrate but every progress that you make towards that big goal is a cause for celebration." —  Chabidaye Jaglal Ramnath
