Build Your Copywriting Business

Police Officer to Copywriter—without Pitching - Martin's Story (Episode 248)


Listen Later

I have been just as burned out as the next person. Before I became a copywriter, I was working at a health club, but my mental health was at its lowest. 


So, I related so deeply to Martin.


Martin spent 15 (!!!) years as a police officer. To say he was burned out is an understatement.

On this episode of the Build Your Copywriting Business podcast, he’s sharing the moment he realized he needed his life—and his mental health—back. 


Of course, like ALL of us, he had doubts. 


His? “Am I too old to become a copywriter at 40?”

Now, as someone well into her 40s, I’m going to let the use of “old” slide here. Because I get it. 


A career change that far along? When you’ve spent your entire life devoted to another profession?


But if you relate to any of that, I’d encourage you to listen to Martin’s story.


Not only is he landing clients and creating an entire new career for himself, he’s doing it without pitching (but leading with value? you bet 😉). 


He’s proof you don’t need a marketing degree or a “perfect background” to make it happen.


You just need to start.
