I sent a loom video with my UpWork proposal and judging from the clients response this was what really helped me to stand out from other applicants - showing myself live in a video. I wouldn't have had the ability to speak so confidently in a video proposal if I hadn't gone through List Boss V1 back in Sept 2024. Investing $50 to learn about email list management directly from an expert is a no-brainer.

Hey all! Thought I'd pop in and chat abit about myself so we're not strangers! I'm Ben (the guy with the big nose on the poster)- and I'm a massive marketing nerd. A very happy one too... which is a funny thing to say considering most marketers still end up pulling their own hair out over how to order letters even after they get their hands on Schwartz's Breakthrough Advertising... Aside from marketing bits I love boxing (go watch Raging Bull it's genuinely so good) and painting naked women... which is actually a pretty aesthetic combo now I think of it... Either way they don't have anything to do with marketing so that's why I'm mentioning them at the start of this spiel.... ...Before I start talking and can't stop 😛 Picked up Copywriting about a year and a half ago now from the best sales call of my life... Like genuinely. Nobody else was in that room- that guy on THAT webinar was talking directly to ME... I remember booking this special moment from one of those Instagram lead-gen ads- like the ones that have the guy with the Lambo and the hot girls and the shiny watches... I did say "the best sales call"- didn't I? It talked money and I wanted money... -Still do frankly- Anyway, I'd propped up my iPhone 6 on some books in my room for the private event (4000 attendees) and began the ordeal. Told my mum I was on a "business call" and remember locking myself in my room and watching the livestream under the covers... Wasn't exactly an exclusive "black-tie" - but for what it's worth, it felt like it... And I didn't know it at the time- but in those 25 minutes I'd subconsciously had a whole Duel of the Fates with the guy who I'd been for 18 years until that point. Funny how one small decision can spur your life in a whooooole different direction when you decide to take action. Anyway, long story short- mr. guru was kind enough to exchange my $699 for some sacred online documentation on how to "whitelabel his marketing services so I never even needed to learn marketing."

Hey Copywriting Launchpad! Recently, I gave everyone on the copywriting.org email list an opportunity to Ask Me Anything… As I went through the many replies, I realised so many copywriters right here in Launchpad share the same questions.Enjoy! ⤵️ “How do I get good at copywriting? “ If you want to get good enough to confidently offer your services and charge premium rates, you need to do three things. First, find good copy to study it. Break it down into structures that you can use again and again. And if you’re struggling, then ask yourself “what are they doing in this section, and why?” This way you will keep building a deep understanding of the craft. Focus less on research, and more on breaking down WHY copy works so you can replicate. (I’ve already built this for you in Copy Systems™ where hundreds of copywriters are enjoying clear systems to write every type of copy. But you can also just do it yourself.) Second, take action aggressively. Copywriting is like any other high-paid skill - it's not easy. Anyone who told you it’s easy, needed to sell you their course. You need to put the reps in. There's no shortcut around this. Also go out there and offer your services. The best way to get better is to do some actual work for a business. Third, get a mentor. Someone who can chief your copy, show you where to improve, and expose your blind spots. A good mentor can solve a problem for you in a single conversation which might take you months to figure out on your own. “How do I land my first client?” If you're asking this, you're right at the beginning of your copywriting career. The good news is you don't need to be a master to start landing clients. You just need to get good enough at one type of in-demand copy so you can deliver quality work consistently. So make sure you’re showing up like a pro with a clean CV & portfolio, professional looking profile pic, plus a clean appearance and audio when on calls. Then identify what sort of business owners you want to work with, figure out where they go to find copywriters, and reach out to them and their team directly (I share the best way to do this below.)
