The Copy Dates Podcast

In this episode, I’ll be covering the differences between copywriting and content writing and the important role strong copywriting plays in your business.

It’s a common misconception that copywriting and content writing are the same thing when in reality, they’re quite different. 

Here are a few topics I cover to help you understand their roles:

• Why copywriting is important to your business
• Differences between copywriting and content writing 
• Copywriting to generate conversions

I hope that this episode provides clarity on the importance of copywriting and how it differs from run-of-the-mill content.
