Have you ever been in a meeting where people are brainstorming ideas, and each idea is more idiotic and off-target than the last one? It has happened to all of us. And if you're an experienced copywriter, sometimes it's hard to bite your tongue. Because the cheerful but inexperienced leader of the meeting has announced a rule: “There are no bad ideas!” Well, yes there are. In that meeting, you just heard a whole pile of them. I can almost guarantee what the problem was. There are several steps, including a crucial step, that everyone in the meeting never took. Falling in love with uninformed, aimless creativity is one of the biggest causes of wasted advertising dollars imaginable. And I'm going to tell you that missing piece, that missing step. I can't promise that everyone in the next meeting will take it ahead of time. But if they do, I promise you'll get much better ideas, even if you're the only copywriter there.

Legendary NY Yankee Yogi Berra said it best: “It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future.” He's right, you know. But there's one important exception, and I don't blame Yogi because, as talented a player and a coach as he was, Yogi wasn't a copywriter. So he didn't know about the important exception we'll talk about today: showing your prospect a compelling future. Not every copywriter does this, but if you don't, you're missing out… on conversions. And even if you do, we're going to talk about a better way to show a compelling future than most people are currently using. If you like the stories on today's show and you'd like to find out about a lot more, that will really power up your copy, let me invite you to check out my book The Persuasion Story Code. It's on Amazon and we'll put a link in the show notes. The Persuasion Story Code https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CFD2KXNQ Download.

Imagine juggling full-time teaching, full-time parenting, and a five-year-long divorce. Exhausting doesn't even begin to cover it.  That was Vikki's reality until she realized one thing: no one was coming to change her life for her. If she wanted something different, she'd have to create it. On this episode of the Build Your Copywriting Business podcast, Vikki was suuuuper generous with sharing her story and how she went from burnout to building an entire new career. Vikki has not only doubled her income, she's also working less hours. Normally I'd totally get if you were like, “Nicki, spoiler alert!” But the magic is in the way she got to this point. Vikki is sharing all her best tips (Kate and I walked away with some new ones!), including how she kept moving forward, even when the big picture felt overwhelming. --------------- Mentioned in the Episode Victoria Burton Copywriting LinkedInEarning More As a Freelancer than On Staff – Catching Up With StuartAston UniversityHow to Elevate Your Profile & Land Copywriting Clients on LinkedIn Related Links Teacher Burnout, Guilt, and Getting Into a New ProfessionThis Teacher Now Leads a Team of Copywriters – Catching Up with Charlotte --------------- Get Free Copywriting Training here

On our latest adventure we chat with Ritesh Patel, Co-founder and Co-CEO of Ticket Fairy, an advanced AI-native vertical SaaS platform built specifically for the live entertainment industry. Similar to the show How It's Made, we talk with Ritesh about what Ticket Fairy is and how it was turned into what it is today, such as: thinking of the concept, coding and developing, testing it on his own gigs, beta testing with his friends, pitching and selling investors, scaling the business and product, and continuing to enhance and grow the platform's capabilities. It's a fascinating look into an interesting industry platform and what goes into building a business. Additionally, Ritesh is the creator of LOCUS, which he originally started to promote shows in 2000 and revived in 2022 into what is now two multi-day annual festivals in Tulum and Bali. We talk through both events and how they allow him to continue to follow his passion for being a promoter, which was incubated by falling in love with the rave scene while in college in Bristol. Enjoy this interesting, educational episode that is steeped in a love for live events and exploring ways to make things easier for those that put them on.Ritesh Patel: Instagram | X/Twitter | LinkedInTicket Fairy: Facebook | Instagram | X/Twitter ––––––ADVENTURES IN VENUELANDFollow on Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, or X/TwitterLearn more about Event & Venue Marketing ConferenceMeet our team:Paul Hooper | Co-host, Booking, Branding & MarketingDave Redelberger | Co-host & Guest ResearchMegan Ebeck | Marketing, Design & Digital AdvertisingSamantha Marker | Marketing, Copywriting & PublicityCamille Faulkner | Audio Editing & MixingHave a suggestion for a guest or bonus episode?

A little over a month ago we did a last-minute podcast about an audacious experiment our special guest today, Nick O'Connor, did with Glenn Fisher and the financial publishing giant Marketwise: Glenn told us how they put together a special program called Financial Copy U, which would train 12 copywriters ABSOLUTELY FREE on how to write copy for financial publishers. With the understanding that some graduates might be offered full-fledged copywriting jobs on the spot, depending, of course, how they did in the training. Now that Financial Copy U is in full swing, we asked Nick to tell us more about what he and Glenn did and are doing right now. Seeing as there's not enough other solid training for financial copywriting going on right now, at least that I know of, I realize Nick has a lot of valuable information for us. Among his many impressive accomplishments, Nick was Head of Copy and Publisher for Agora's financial imprint in the UK, Southbank Investment Research. Today, as well as co-founding The Fix, he writes freelance for financial publishers in the UK, US and Australia and consults with Agora companies around the world. Nick told us about the origin of Financial Copy U, why he, Glenn and Marketwise decided to do it, the difference between winning applications to the program and those that didn't make it, and a lot more. Great information about financial copywriting and copywriting in general! For more info about the program: https://www.financialcopyu.com Download.

It's the sure-fire strategy that makes you overconfident. It looks like this: The copy's loud. Aggressive. Alpha-male on a double dose of adderall. It's practically SCREAMING at you to buy. And you know what? Sometimes it works. But not most of the time. Especially these days. Hyper-aggressive copy is just a huge risk you don't want to take. And here's why: While it's true that pressure might trigger an action, it almost never creates belief. And belief is what you need to MAKE the sale… and KEEP the sale. My co-host Nathan is going to lead us out of the land of testosterone intoxication and into an exciting new world, of calmly and irreversibly creating BELIEF in your copy… so pressure isn't necessary. Because when they believe… they buy. Find out more about Nathan's approach at https://cultishcontent.com/ Download.

What if the most powerful skill you could develop as a designer has nothing to do with Figma or AI? In this episode, we explore why writing is the ultimate meta-skill—sharpening your thinking, influencing decisions, and accelerating your career in unexpected ways.Is writing the most underrated design skill of all time?We spend a lot of time talking about design skills like prototyping, facilitation, and AI tools. But what if the skill that strengthens all of those is the one designers most often ignore?In this episode, I sit down with Thijs Kraan, a designer-turned-growth partner, who makes the case that writing is the ultimate meta-skill. For Thijs, writing every day didn't just sharpen his thinking; it multiplied his impact. From running a 30-day challenge to publishing daily posts, writing became the catalyst for everything else in his career.We talk about the difference between business writing, expert writing, and copywriting, why clear writing equals clear thinking, and how documentation can protect your career when tough decisions come back months later. We also tackle the elephant in the room: AI. Should you let ChatGPT do your writing, or will that shortcut make you worse in the long run?Whether you're trying to influence stakeholders, sharpen your thinking, or just get better at your day-to-day communication, this conversation will show you why writing might just be the most important design skill you haven't been practicing.Tune in and see why it's time to pick up the pen (or keyboard).Topics:• 02:45 – The Importance of Writing in UX Design• 04:19 – Thijs Kron's Journey: From Web Development to Writing• 06:05 – The Power of Writing in Design Thinking• 06:31 – Building a Writing Habit• 15:06 – Writing as a Meta Skill• 20:55 – Different Types of Writing for Designers• 22:33 – The Role of Copywriting in Design• 24:36 – Writing as a Career Multiplier• 28:38 – The Impact of AI on Writing• 30:19 – Balancing AI and Human Thinking• 31:35 – Personal Experience with AI in Writing• 32:43 – Effective Uses of AI for Writing• 34:54 – The Risks of Over-Reliance on AI• 36:13 – Practical Tips for Writing and ThinkingHelpful Links:• Connect with Thijs on LinkedIn—Thanks for listening!

Writing for clients is just one way to build a copywriting business. Once you've done that for a while, you may decide it's not right for you. So what does the alternative look like? I invited copywriter Krystle Church to join for for the 266th episode of The Copywriter Club Podcast to talk about that and a lot more.

This is The Copywriter Club Podcast. There are a lot of copywriters who build a successful business writing for clients. Or maybe they build an agency around their offers and niche. But then after a few years they don't love the business they created for themselves. Sometime we just burn out and need to do something a bit different. Maybe they no longer want employees or contractors. Maybe they get tired of working directly with clients. Maybe they realize that instead of using their skills to attract customers to other peoples businesses, they decide to use their skills to sell products to their own clients. And then many of us are entrepreneurs at heart and have always wanted to build a business other than writing for a list of clients. Shifting a business from offering services to clients to something else can be a challenge. It's a very different kind of work. Instead of creating assets for clients, you may spend your time creating assets for your own business, then spending even more time getting attention for your offers. For many copywriters, this is the dream—a copywriting business with customers instead of clients. But there's a lot of work that goes into a business switch like this. Validating offers. Finding a client base for your offers—which is almost certainly a very different set of clients than you've been writing for. Building out marketing systems to sell your new products. Figuring out how to deliver value when you're not actually delivering copy. I wanted to talk about this with someone who's gone through the process recently. So I invited copywriter and coach Krystle Church to come back to the podcast and talk about the changes she's made to her business over the past couple of years. The business Krystle has today is very different from the one she was running two years ago. She's excited about the new direction and having more fun than when she was burning out with a calendar full of projects that required her attention from the time she woke up until she went to bed at night. If you've been thinking about re-imagining your business, this episode may give you a few ideas to try. You'll get a few tips about validating a new offer. And you might even decide to dabble with an offer for your niche that at least gives you a taste of what a different kind of business would feel like. This kind of business isn't for everyone. In fact, it's probably not for most copywriters. But it's worth thinking about how you might be able to add to or change your business so it fits your needs a bit better. Before we get to my discussion with Krystle, this episode is brought to you by Research Mastery. Research Mastery is the one-stop program or course that will change your writing for the better. Instead of just organizing words, you'll have the tools and strategies you need to truly understand your customer so they relate to your offer and buy more often. Research Mastery digs into the 4 critical areas of research… if you miss one of them, your research just isn't complete. And it includes the A.I. tools you need to do research faster, more effectively, and more profitably. You can learn more about this unqiue program at thecopywriterclub.com/researchmastery  And now my interview with Krystle Church.

Today we take a deep dive into the part of copywriting that people talk about all the time. And even though people talk about this all the time, most of them don't really understand it. That is, psychology. Not the kind of psychology you experience in a therapist's office—although there's a little bit of overlap. Not what you'll find in brightly colored grid of buyer personas. Not mindset. No, we're talking about the psychology that has to do with how people really behave. What actually makes them respond. This is the kind of psychology that proves out over and over again, through unforgiving tests in the marketplace. We'll call it “copywriting psychology.” It's the psychology behind copy that converts. And here's the thing: It's not always polite. It may not even be pleasant. And sometimes, it's offensive to the way people look at the world. But copywriting psychology is not trying to win a popularity contest. Instead, it's trying to answer a very serious, and sometimes uncomfortable, question. That is: Does it convert? Remember, we're talking about persuasion in the wild here. After all, when they're looking at your copy, your prospects aren't really sitting in a focus group, ponderously exploring their feelings and trying to express them so as to look good in front of others. Here's what your prospects are really doing: They're scrolling through emails… half-watching TikTok videos… and trying to remember where they left their debit card. Copywriting psychology doesn't rely on a theory or a particular set of beliefs. It relies on observed and measured behavior. Therefore, to get really good at this, you learn not to listen so much to what people say… but to pay very close attention to what they do. When I mentor clients, a large part of what we do ends up coming from developing an almost sixth sense for copywriting psychology. What we'll do here today is a crash course to help you move to the next level in this important set of copywriting tools. So, a couple of resources for you if you really want to get copywriting psychology under your belt. If you are a working copywriter with at least two years' experience and in the six figure level of income, you should consider applying for mentoring with me. I don't work with beginners, but if you have a successful business and you write copy, or you have a strong freelance copywriting business, check out my mentoring. It's a serious one-year program and it can easily take you to the next level. It's expensive, but clients find again and again that it more than pays for itself. In fact, some of them, who run 9 figure businesses, have stayed with me for years. And some freelance copywriters have as well. Now, what we talked about today is just a small part of the copywriting psychology we cover during the year, because most of it comes up when we go over projects and promotions you're actively working on. You can find out more, including the application, at https://garfinkelcoaching.com The second resource is for everyone and I can't recommend it highly enough, even though I wrote it. This week I got two messages from clients who were bragging they got someone else to get the book. Why? Because the information in it can really make a big difference in your copy and in your business. And I haven't seen the same information anywhere else. Of course I'm talking about The Persuasion Story Code. It's on Amazon and here's the link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CFD2KXNQ Download.

Copywriters are teachers. We teach customers how the products and services we write about help them. In this episode of The Copywriter Club Podcast, I spoke with teacher turned copywriter Meredith Cooley about all the ways copywriters use their teaching skills. Even if you don't think you're a teacher, you'll learn a lot from this episode—including a simple copywriting lesson from Bluey. Yes, that Bluey.

So should more teachers be copywriters? This is The Copywriter Club Podcast. A few years ago I had a conversation with one of my copywriting mentors. She mentioned that she had considered teaching as a possible career path. And I shared that I had the same thought when I started my career. Then we talked about the number of former teachers we knew who had left the classroom to write copy. And that's when it dawned on me that copywriting isn't just something that former teachers or potential teachers do.  Copywriting is teaching. But instead of practicing that skill in a classroom, copywriters are teaching on the page or on the screen, helping potential customers learn about products and solutions, about processes and unique mechanisms, and how to solve the very real problems and pains they are experiencing in their lives. In the years since, I've interviewed close to a dozen former teachers on this podcast… people who are still teaching, just not in a formal classroom any more. Do you feel this as a copywriter? Do you see yourself as a teacher for your clients and their customers? My guest for today's podcast is Meredith Cooley, a teacher turned copywriter who has helped dozens of other teachers leave the classroom and become copywriters for various businesses around the world. Teachers have so many skills that copywriters need, from project management to engaging with stakeholders at various levels of a business. And perhaps most importantly, good teachers have to be able to take dry, boring content and make it exciting for an often disinterested and bored audience. And if you listened to last week's episode, you heard me talk about how I've started teaching marketing at a local college here in my home town. The crossover between teaching students and writing for customers is large. And that's what this episode is all about. Even if you don't see yourself as a teacher, this episode may change your mind about how you think about your relationship with the customers you write for. Before we get to our interview, this episode is brought to you by Research Mastery. Research Mastery is the one-stop program or course that will change your writing for the better. Instead of just organizing words, you'll have the tools and strategies you need to truly understand your customer so they relate to your offer and buy more often. Research Mastery digs into the 4 critical areas of research… if you miss one of them, your research just isn't complete. And it includes the A.I. tools you need to do research faster, more effectively, and more profitably. You can learn more about this unqiue program at thecopywriterclub.com/researchmastery  And now my interview with Meredith Cooley.    

Sometimes copy fails because it's just not executed well enough. And also, copy that simply misses the mark — doesn't align with the target prospects and what's on their minds — won't do well either. But you can have all the fundamentals in place and done well, and sales can still fail to happen. Why? That would be because the strategy behind the copy was weak or even non-existent. Today, we're talking about a blind spot that kills a lot of otherwise good copy—and how our special guest today, Jamie Thompson, coaches copywriters how to see what others miss entirely. That would be, of course, strategy and strategic thinking. Jamie's a seasoned pro. Headquartered in Edinburgh, Scotland, he's been writing copy for 10 years and counts among his clients such giants as Amazon, USAID, and Lenovo. But he's had many other clients—over 500 in all. And lately he's made it his mission to teach copywriters how to think like strategists. 80% of Jamie's clients come back for return engagements. So you'll definitely want to know some of what he knows.

Three weeks ago, we had a very special Old Masters Series show: The Art of War, Copywriting Edition. But we only covered half the book, so that made the previous episode Part 1. Today we cover the rest of the book, Chapters 7 through 13. And that makes today Part 2. Here's what you need to know: The Art of War was written by Sun Tzu (SOOON-tzeh) about 2500 years ago, as a treatise on military strategy. The Art of War reaches far beyond military warfare, however. Business overachievers like Elon Musk and Mark Benioff, founder of salesforce, are among many who have praised this book. That's because the principles in this book are universal and very powerful in any situation where you're in a struggle–and getting people to buy from the written word certainly counts as a struggle. Today you'll see exactly how Sun Tzu's principles, when applied to copy, can help you sharpen your copy, position your offers better, and persuade prospects more naturally. I've gotta tell you, I was surprised when I was preparing this how easily his principles can be applied to copy. Now, there's a reason The Art of War has lasted for more than two thousand years. It's not just because people like reading about swords and spears. It's because the way Sun Tzu thought about winning applies anywhere there's competition — whether it's two armies on a field, two companies in a market… or you, sitting at a keyboard, trying to out-sell the other guy. When you're writing copy, you're not just “putting words together.” You're maneuvering. Positioning. Adapting. Watching for the right moment to strike. If you've ever had a great piece of copy flop… or a headline you loved get ignored… or a competitor suddenly steal your customers… …you've felt the same frustration a general feels when the plan falls apart halfway through the battle. Sun Tzu didn't leave that to chance. He studied how to win before the fight began — and how to keep control until the very last move. Today, we're going to tap into the last seven chapters of his book. These are the chapters about keeping your opponent guessing… matching your tactics to the exact ground you're on… knowing when to press hard and when to pull back… and gathering the kind of intelligence that lets you win before the other side knows what happened.

What's the biggest opportunity for copywriters today? That's just one of the ideas we talked about on this episode of The Copywriter Club Podcast. Tiana Asperjan is my guest and we talked about how she became a copywriter, her "secrets" for connecting with clients, showing up consistently even when things are uncomfortable, and the biggest opportunities for writers today. Click the play button below, or scroll down for a full transcript.   Stuff to check out: Tiana's YouTube Tiana's Newsletter The Copywriter Club Facebook Group The Copywriter Underground Research Mastery   Highlights from this episode: Rob Marsh: What is the biggest opportunity in copywriting today? We're about to reveal the answer. This is The Copywriter Club Podcast. When inviting guests to share their experiences on this podcast, I often look for writers who are doing something a little bit differently than their peers are doing. Someone who has a different approach, a unique viewpoint on something, or maybe they're testing things that the rest of us just aren't up to speed on yet. My guest on today's podcast is Tiana Asperjan. Lately I've been seing Tiana everywhere… although that might just be a function of the algorithm showing me more stuff like the stuff I've seen recently. If you're a copywriter, Tiana's Youtube channel, social media feed, and newsletter are excellent. She's teaching what works in ads and copy right now. But she doesn't just say what's working, she focuses on the strategy and psychology behind an ad so you know not just that it works, but why it works. She's doing things a bit differently from a lot of other copywriters and most of us who are sharing ideas and insights about copywriting with other writers. So I asked her to join me on today's episode and boy am I glad that I did. I like all of the interviews I share with you each week, but this one really stands out. Tiana's story of how she got to where she is is a masterclass on the steps to success as a writer. It's less about the destination, and more about accumulating the experiences and expertise you need to be great. I think as you listen in, you'll learn a lot from Tiana's experiences. As for the answer to that question I posed at the opening of this episode… what's the biggest opportunity for copywriters working today who want to stay relevant for years to come? Well, you'll just have to listen to this episode because Tiana reveals what it is and why this particular “niche” —and I've got niche in air quotes here—is where more copywriters ought to be focusing their efforts today. If you want a look at a industry or niche that is desperate for help from good copywriters, you'll want to keep listening. Before we get to all that, this episode is brought to you by Research Mastery. Research Mastery is the one-stop program or course that will change your writing for the better. Instead of just organizing words, you'll have the tools and strategies you need to truly understand your customer so they relate to your offer and buy more often.

$6.7 million. That's how much mega financial publisher Marketwise paid out to copywriters in royalties in 2024. And now they're making an offer so good we had to rush today's special guest, top copywriter and best-selling author Glenn Fisher, on the show to tell you about it. The offer is simple, yet overwhelming: FREE training from Marketwise to 12 lucky copywriters… and one of them will be offered a chance to write copy for this publishing giant. Glenn will tell you all about the training in just a few minutes, but let me tell you first about Glenn: He knows the value of training himself, because he trained with legends Bill Bonner and Mark Ford at Agora. He then went on to run one of the Agora businesses in the UK. He wrote Amazon best-seller The Art of the Click, which was also translated into Chinese and Korean. And, he co-created Financial Copy U with Nick O'Connor and Marketwise, where they will be mentoring 12 writers over 12 weeks, for free, starting in early September. So if you want to put your name in the hat, today would be a good day. Links: Financial Copy U: financialcopyu.com The Fix, Glenn's and Nick's other program: thefixcopywriting.com Download.

Most entrepreneurs fail not because they lack business knowledge, but because they're psychologically unprepared for the journey. Trust me, I learned this the hard way. After building my $100 million coaching company, I'm sharing the 20 books that provided the mental framework for my success. Out of over 1,000 books I consumed during my entrepreneurial journey, these are the only ones that actually moved the needle. In this deep-dive episode, I'm giving you my complete ranking system and explaining why mindset work isn't just "nice to have" – it's the difference between entrepreneurs who scale and those who sabotage themselves.   What Makes This Different: Real rankings based on my 9-figure business results, not theoretical advice Insights from working with 6,000+ coaching clients across all revenue levels My honest assessment of which books are life-changing vs. just "really good" Specific examples of how each book category applies to business challenges I've faced The psychology behind why I think successful entrepreneurs think differently   Key Topics I Cover: The map of consciousness and how I discovered emotional states affect business output Why I learned negative emotions are messengers (not enemies) in entrepreneurship My scientific approach to manifestation and goal achievement Copywriting fundamentals that convert cold traffic (I still use these) Ancient leadership principles I apply to modern business challenges How I create systems that generate profit automatically The difference between attachment and awareness in business building   Want to see the visual breakdown?

Ever felt so drained and discouraged you thought, “Maybe I should just give up”? That's exactly where Bart was—not just doubting his move from corporate sales to copywriting, but seriously questioning if he could make it work at all. Fast forward: Bart is now booked out for six months—and here's what may surprise you… …he did it without social media. On this episode of the Build Your Copywriting Business, Bart was generous to share his story, including how he turned things around. He's also sharing the mindset shifts that helped him push through the hardest moments, and the surprising decisions (like stepping completely away from social) that actually helped him thrive. As Bart says, “A lot can change in a very short time… if you don't give up.” If you're burned out or doubting yourself, this episode might be exactly what you need to hear. ----------------- Mentioned in the Episode Bart Ellebaut LinkedInBONUS Laser Coaching: Top Tips for Wildly Effective PitchingBONUS Laser Coaching: Asking for Feedback to Combat Imposter SyndromeEp. 134: Keep Copywriting Fun: 3 Must-Implement Business Boundaries Related Links Ep. 191: This Copywriter Books Work 3+ Months Out—Here's How She Does It – Lizzie's StoryEp. 95: Hitting 6 Figures As a Copywriter in 6 Months – Stacy's Story --------------- Get Free Copywriting Training here
