If you love writing, you're going to relate to Maile's story. Maile went to school with the goal to write for television, but as life happens, she found herself in content writing roles.  Unlike most Comprehensive Copywriting Academy students, Maile discovered the CCA when she was already writing for some clients. But these clients were looking to her to write things like email, webpages, and more. On today's episode of the Build Your Copywriting Business podcast, Maile is sharing secrets to successful pitching, plus offering her take on AI and what she's seeing with her clients. Whether you're already a writer or looking to (finally!) get paid for your writing, I know Maile's story is going to leave you feeling inspired. (Bonus: she shared some *spot-on* tips for setting boundaries to ensure she has time for what matters most: her family.) --------------- Mentioned in the Episode mailetimoncopy.comFeatures vs. Benefits Quiz: Test Your Copywriting Knowledge Related Links What is Content Strategy?

Every time we talk with Comprehensive Copywriting Academy students, Kate and I leave feeling inspired. That's exactly what it was like talking to Alicia.  From a young age, Alicia knew she wanted to help people. It's what got her into social work. But, like many of those in the social work field, Alicia faced extreme burnout. On this episode of the Build Your Copywriting Business podcast, Alicia is sharing her story, including how she transitioned from social work to copywriting, how her social work skills lend themselves to copywriting, and how she pushed past self-imposed roadblocks. Hint: it's OK to take messy action—as long as you're taking action!  Alicia is proving that some careers don't have to be full-time careers. Sometimes, you can put together a full-time career out of two part-time careers. So, I'd encourage you to listen to this episode for a little inspiration.

When Nicole first joined the Comprehensive Copywriting Academy in late 2019, she was house sitting and planned to build her freelance copywriting business. Then 2020 happened. Nicole took a full-time job teaching at a college and didn't know if she would ever go back to copywriting. Of course in another 2020 twist, her course load was reduced. Copywriting became her security net. Talking with Nicki and Kate at the end of 2021, Nicole shares how she's incorporated copywriting into a mix of work she does. Her part-time copywriting work is one piece of what she calls her "patchwork" career, which also including teaching a course and running her Etsy shop. She shares how she got to this balance, why it works for her, and her advice for others looking to pursue copywriting. Note: Nicole mentions Pitch-a-palooza in the interview. This is a free month-long annual event for CCA students that gets everyone focused on sending their first pitches or refining their pitching process with weekly challenges and giveaways.

Eight years ago Shannon, a Comprehensive Copywriting Academy student, had to leave the workforce to try and manage her fibromyalgia. She continued looking for a job that would not only bring in income, but, as she says, "fuel her soul" and allow her to set her schedule. Shannon went from relying on the food bank to, within one year of joining the CCA, being able to buy a new house. On this episode, Shannon talks to Nicki and Kate about how she's been able to find the right balance of working for clients and taking care of her health. They also discuss the benefits of not choosing a niche and why the variety of potential copywriting clients is part of what makes the career so fulfilling.

When Kate Kosydar first discovered copywriting, she had been working full time in the faith-based nonprofit world for more than a decade and was ready for a change. She talks about why she continued to pursue copywriting, even after taking another copywriting course she didn't find valuable, and how she realized her original definition of copywriting (being "salesy" or selling out her values) was not at all what it actually ended up being for her copywriting career.  You can make a difference as a copywriter working with businesses you believe in and honoring your values. Spoiler: she has nearly doubled her former full-time salary—working part time, and she and her husband have managed to pay off their student loans. Kate also touches on living in a more rural area and the benefits of being able to work remote with her clients. Note: We mention "Pitchapalooza" on this episode, which is an annual four-week event for Comprehensive Copywriting Academy students that gets everyone writing and sending their first pitches.  Mentioned on this episode: Kate's PortfolioGlennon Doyle Wants you to Abandon Identity Related Links: How Do I Know If I'm Ready to Pitch Copywriting Clients?Copywriting Q&A: The Three Steps to Career Change --------------- Get Free Copywriting Training here

She's passionate about helping people take their writing skills and turn them into a marketable business.

She also delves into the skills that copy editors need to develop and explains that certificates don't really have a place in this industry. She breaks down the difference between copywriting, copyediting, content writing, proofreading, and the relationship copywriters have with graphic designers.

As a career change coach, I have heard over and over again the idea that if you want to do something that you love, that you feel passionate and excited about that feels like it gives you an outlet for your creativity, you can't make money doing it. It comes up in all kinds of different careers. But I hear it come up when people talk about their aspirations as a writer the most.  I'm so excited to bring today's guest on to talk to you all about why that isn't exactly true and different pathways that you can be using to find a compelling, interesting, meaningful path forward, getting to use some of the skills and the gifts that you love the most.  Today's episode is for you if you are interested in cultivating a little seed of hope and optimism and positivity when it comes to figuring out how to make some of the things that light you up, turn into lucrative and profitable career paths for you. Specifically if you've ever had ambitions around turning your writing from being a hobby or a passion project into something that can earn you a living.  We are joined by Nicki Krawczyk,  a copywriter with 15+ years of experience, writing for multi-billion-dollar companies, solopreneurs, and every size business in between.
