I finished the first lesson in the copywriting fundamentals course today. Took some notes but… I’m also putting the stuff I learned to practice. The ad I hand-copied today was by Joe Karbo, and it was basically an OG make-money offer. I didn’t write the whole ad, but I did break the part I wrote down like Matthew said. Then I made it into a formula (pics attached). I called my formula Classic Guru Story. QUESTION: @Nabeel Azeez Do you think I should do the formula and breaking down stuff on paper or in a doc? I’ll write an ad for CL once I have the full formula, but for now I'll use Matthew's from the course for practice. So here is my CL ad debut. Let me know what you think, @Nabeel Azeez This ad is using the Mushroom Coffee Ad Formula —————— Signs your copywriting guru is a waste of money. Gives you a limit on copy critiques each week. RED FLAG. Offers a high-ticket mastermind to get “real” help. RED FLAG. Makes you wake up at 3am to attend coaching calls. RED FLAG. There’s a secret Skool group called Copywriting Launchpad that does the exact opposite of all of this. Their call-free coaching approach lets you send in a message for any type of help, any type of critique, anytime you want. With no cap. And you get a response within a few hours (sometimes minutes). With this, you can get: Unlimited copy critiques from a master copywriter Unlimited help whenever you need it, from the send of a message And you can still enjoy a full night’s sleep It’s a no-brainer if you want to master copywriting or creative strategy and land big clients. Copywriting Launchpad is also the #2 ranked copywriting community on Skool, with tons of students inside.
