Build Your Copywriting Business

At some point in you career you WILL have multiple projects at the same time. For most of us who want to work full-time as copywriters, that is the goal!

Many of you may be experiencing this already and, if you've had to juggle multiple deadlines, you know it isn't always easy.

I'm sharing my top tips for managing several projects and clients at the same time.

The good news is there is basically zero chance that every client you pitch is going to get back to you at the exact same time and want the work right away.

You will, however, likely have projects in various phases of the project process.

Here's what that looks like and how to best manage your schedule to avoid overwhelm.

This episode isn't really about copywriting.

It's about building your career around your life instead of the other way around.

CCA student, copywriter, and ESL educator Andi is sharing how she's taking one imperfect step after another to do just that.

On this Build Your Copywriting Business podcast episode, Andi is bringing us on a journey from Kenya to Vietnam to Montana.

And she's unpacking some unparalleled insights, like how she realized as much as she thought she'd love working from home alone, she needed human interaction.

So, she connected with fellow CCA student Lisa in Malaysia to stay accountable on her copywriting goals. 

(Hi, Lisa! 👋)

Andi is sharing not only a wealth of advice on connecting with local businesses, but also on how she's aligning her career with her values.

She says she hasn't got it all figured out, but once you listen to this, I think you'll agree that her mindset is one to aspire towards!

Put a check next to any of these that you've thought:

[ ] That business is too big to need my help.

[ ] That business works with an agency already.

[ ] They must have copywriters already.

[ ] Solopreneur? They can’t afford me!

[ ] It's a holiday. I can't reach out to them now.

Admittedly, this isn't like a Cosmo quiz where 0-2 checks means one thing and all 5 means another.

If you checked any of these, you're making an assumption that could be costing you opportunities (and money).

In fact, our brains are pretty great at coming up with ALL kinds of reasons *not* to reach out to potential clients ...

And that's exactly what we're going to put the kibosh on today. 

Listen now to debunk some of the most common pitching assumptions before they cost you even MORE money and opportunities.

Sending lots of emails to potential clients, but never getting a response?

As a business owner for 15+ years, I've received my fair of share of pitches (CCA students: you've seen some of the good and some of the bad!). 

And I can tell you that there are a handful of super-common mistakes.

But you don't have to make those same mistakes, my friend!

We're running through the biggest of the big no-nos (with real examples!) on this episode of the

By the end, you'll know how to spot these errors so you can fix them before you hit "send" on your emails.

Be honest with me for a sec: Have you ever said any of the following before reaching out to a client?

"No one wants my pitches."

"This is hard—and I'm just going to get a no."

"This person doesn't even know me. This is basically spam."

"There's an easier way. I'll just use those job bidding sites."

As a business owner, I can tell you that all of this negative self talk is not only dangerous, it's just not true. 

When you send an email packed with value (CCA students, you know what I'm talking about), business owners are grateful.

They may not reach back out, but I can tell you they save your emails (I've got a few I've saved for upcoming projects!).

So, if you've ever said any of these, you need to listen to this episode now.
