I've always been in love with writing, since I was little. Using words in the right way to convey your point to the fullest. Finding just the right word that can replace a string of five others. Expressing emotions that are hard to convey. And more.  But I never knew what copywriting actually was until my mid-20s, when I landed a job at a midtown boutique ad agency. It blended my love of both words and psychology. I immediately became enamored with the idea of doing that for a living – could it really be possible?  The post ‘The Power of Copywriting' with Sara Anna Powers— Glambition® Radio Episode 296 with Ali Brown appeared first on Ali Brown.

How do you know when you’ve found your calling? How do you know when you’ve veered off track?

Becoming comfortable in investing in yourself is something many Christian women struggle with. You need to know that you are worthy of investment and riches and that God has actually designed you to achieve them. I’m joined by Sara Anna Powers, my own business coach, to talk about how she transitioned from an anorexic law student to a 6-figure entrepreneur. About Sara Anna Powers Sara Anna is a Success Coach and The Copy Couturier™ who works with motivated, dedicated, and faith-filled entrepreneurs who are ready to pursue their powerful purpose. Sara Anna tells us the story of how she transitioned from someone who struggled with anorexia to a successful 6-figure businesswoman. Sara Anna explains how it was actually some of the personality traits that made anorexia and binge eating a reality for her are the same ones that enable her to succeed in her business. She attributes much of her college experience to how her eating disorder developed and sustained. Sara Anna eventually reached out to her parents to get into rehab for her recovery. Sara Anna tells us about the transformation she experienced when she stopped being hyper-focused on what food she was eating all the time. And now that she’s not obsessively tracking everything, Sara Anna eats whatever she wants, especially when she knows it will fuel her body and give her the energy her body needs. For Sara Anna, it was when she completely reframed the reasons she was following a healthier lifestyle and exercise routine that her life shifted. By realizing that she was doing it for a healthier body and to feel and perform her best, she freed herself from the obsession that comes with what you look like. One of the aspects of training Sara Anna changed was the frequency and duration of how much she was exercising. She was exercising hard at the gym for two hours a time, nearly every day. But by scaling that back, Sara Anna has discovered all the life that’s out there waiting for her outside the gym. Sara Anna is a Christian woman who is no stranger to investing in herself. Starting with her eating disorder recovery, then investing thousands of dollars in coaching for the first iteration of her online business, to now where she is working with high-level business coaches.  Sara Anna believes that Christian women can be rich in all areas of their lives, including their bank accounts. This is one of the reasons she encourages women to invest in themselves. Each investment has made Sara Anna reach a higher level so she can serve more faith-based women better than before.

And you’re still loved. I loved you at 140lbs, and I loved you at 103lbs, and I loved you at 220lbs. The fact that your weight has changed doesn’t change who you are at your core.” (8:15) “The key is to call it out for what it is and nip in the bud as soon as possible and really learn how to love yourself and truly appreciate yourself, not just for the external but for who you are.” (21:57) “I think you cannot go wrong by investing in yourself when you know that it is God calling you to do that.” (44:28) “Your mental, physical, and spiritual health is actually beneficial to not only you but also the people around you.” (50:13)   Links Find Sara Anna Powers Online Follow Sara Anna Powers on Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | Pinterest Sign up for James Wedmore's Business By Design video series!

There is so much going on in our lives individually and collectively. We have all found ourselves navigating a new normal and walking by faith. While I don’t know how long this will last, I know one thing for sure: This too shall pass. It is through community that we have the opportunity to rise together.  How you show up today matters. How you show up in 3 months from now, 6 months from now, years from now will be a reflection of how you choose to show up today. Your thoughts now are creating your future. In today’s episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I’m sharing Part 2 of a series from the Rise Together Panel -Top Online Entrepreneurs Speak Out  virtual event that I hosted 2 weeks ago. Nine incredible 7-figure entrepreneurs grounded in their faith shared what they are doing in their businesses, lives, and families to RISE above the current circumstances and thrive. This week on Part 2 of the series, you will hear from Christina Jandali, Erin Sanderson, and Pat Flynn as each of them break down what’s working, what’s not, and how they are pivoting in their lives and businesses.  We are in this together. We will RISE together. Grab your pen and paper -  here’s Part 2! The biggest take-aways from today’s episode are:   “The worst thing you can do right now is stay silent and not share your voice.” Christina Jandali    I love how Christina framed this as being an opportunity to pivot into the conversation, in business and on an individual level. We are pivoting in the marketplace towards connection. If you are leading from a place of service, be fully connected and listening, you will rise into leadership and step into your gifts. [3:29]   “Great leaders always think outside the box.” Erin Sanderson   Maybe you got comfortable in your business, but now is the time to innovate. People are looking for leaders, sanity, and stability. As business owners, we are always looking for life-long loyalty. Erin encouraged that when all of this passes, your people are going to remember how you showed up and made them feel. It isn’t going to be because of our service, it will be because of our character. [11:53]   “My biggest piece of advice is to be grateful and look at this as an opportunity.” Pat Flynn    Pat Flynn shares how his experience during the 2008 recession fuels his passion to give back and support others during these uncertain times. Practice gratitude, instead of falling into excuses ask “what does this make possible,” become a curator of information, show up for your audience and team consistently, be transparent, and lead by example.  [30:21] Rise. Pivot. Start. I would love to know what your biggest takeaways were! Tag me on Instagram @DrShannonIrvine and let me know! Make sure to tune in for Part 3 when you will hear from Brian Dixon, Michelle Myers, and Sara Anna Powers. You won’t want to miss it! Want more?

This is a very exciting episode because I've gathered a few of my friends to talk all things masterminds. It's the time of year when I've already started thinking about what mastermind I'm going to be in for 2020.

As an entrepreneur, when you want to transform peoples’ lives, connecting with new clients and converting your ideal client has everything to do with messaging. You can have the most amazing, powerful, life-transformative service, but if you cannot get your client to understand the value in that service, they will not buy. As an entrepreneur, it is your duty to learn this messaging piece so you can impact all the people you are meant to serve in the world. If copywriting (your words that attract and sell to your clients, not to be mistaken with copyrighting to legally protect your work ;) ) sounds a bit daunting to you, then today’s podcast is meant for you! My guest today on the Epic Success Podcast is the super talented copywriter, Sara Anna Powers. She helped me with my copy as I transitioned my business online and she is a copy specialist. She is sharing her Six Cs step-by-step framework to take your client from connection to conversion and make you amazing at copywriting. So if you like a good step-by-step framework that makes things simple and effective, Sara is gold when it comes to helping you create magnetic messaging! The biggest take-aways from today’s episode are: “It’s so important that we speak the language that our customers understand.” The best way to speak the language of your customer is to connect. Get on the phone. Ask questions. Their answers to those questions, when used on your sales page, makes your ideal client feel instantly connected. Listen in to hear all the great ideas Sara Anna shares for quality content through connection. [7:57] “People only care about you to the extent that you are going to help them move forward.” When you’re in the marketplace, running businesses, charging people money for services and products, we’re not pro bono. Your potential clients are there to get results for their own lives and businesses. It’s on us to communicate that we can help them do that. [14:52] “I really believe that contrast is the piece that holds people back from really having copy that connects.” Contrast creates click-worthy copy that your customer can’t resist. Contrast is the piece that takes people into their world of pain and then contrasts it with your “paradise of possibility.” You do your clients a service by reminding them of their pain and then painting the picture of what your service or product would make possible. [20:07] Sara generously shares all 6 Cs of her Copy That Converts framework in this interview. So many amazing copy tips that will bring you so much value! You don’t want to miss listening to the full episode. Make sure to connect with Sara Anna Powers on Instagram & Facebook and grab her FREE Stellar Sales Page framework! When you put this framework into practice, we’d love to see your magnetic copy! Tag @SaraAnnaPowers & @DrShannonIrvine on Instagram so we can see how you’ve made it your own!

What happened to Tiffany? What happened to Adriane? What happened to Sean? Where are they? Don’t worry, they’ll be back soon. We’ve all been traveling so much that we couldn’t find a time to get together in the studio. So we’ve batched a couple of fantastic interviews with 3 world class copywriters and marketers to replace the fun, freewheeling episodes until we can get back in the studio together again. In the next week or so we’ll release our official announcement of a second podcast. That’s right, there will be two Ray Edwards podcasts. One will be all about copywriting and marketing. The hardcore business stuff many of you crave. The other will be the fun, freewheeling conversations about life and all sorts of other entertaining things.

Spiritual Foundations: Today on “Spiritual Foundations” I want to tell you the story of a good Christian woman who’s struggling to run her business. I’ll tell you about… (2:35) How a simple verse in 1st Chronicles, chapter 4 sparked a huge debate and why I think this verse is key to every Christian’s business success. There’s hard evidence in this verse that demonstrates how God actually does answer these kinds of prayers. Ray's Tip Of The Week I want to tell you about one of my favorite apps. It helps you… (4:35) Quickly and easily unclutter your electronic devices of duplicate photos and files. To top it all off, it’s very inexpensive.

Feature Presentation: Mike Stelzner is the founder of Social Media Examiner, Social Media Marketing World, the Social Media Marketing Podcast, and the Social Media Marketing Society. And he’s one of my best friends. In my conversation with Mike, you’ll discover… (7:50) What Mike studied in college and grad school that set him up perfectly as a podcaster, video presenter, and copywriter. He never planned to do what he’s doing now, but looking back, his college years set the stage perfectly for his current career. (8:25) How his definition of the word “translation” got him started as a copywriter. Without this full-time position at a hundred-million-dollar high tech company while still in college, he may never have figured out how to write great copy. (10:15) Why FedEx hired Mike to write an old-school marketing piece when they started their international transit from China. This piece of marketing was so valuable it even convinced Apple Computers to start using the new FedEx overnight service for electronics. (12:40) The literally “larger than life” client Mike and I both worked for on separate occasions. Hear the story of how these copywriting opportunities came from our mutual friend Amy Porterfield who worked for this famous motivational speaker at the time. (14:40) How Mike made the transition from being THE “white papers” copywriter in many people’s minds to starting what is now the most important social media marketing company in the world. Leaving behind a list of 20,000 subscribers was a big risk, but it paid off handsomely. (16:20) The clever “build a movement” strategy Mike used to grow an initial following of 10,000 people before ever releasing a single product for sale. And when they did start selling products 6 months later, it led them to earn over $2,000,000 in their first year. (19:30) Why now, more than ever, people need to understand how to persuade with the written word. Why social media marketing increases the need for good copywriting and how Mike uses it every day in his business. (24:25) The importance of creating free content that’s so valuable people would happily pay for it. This one strategy has made all the difference in Mike’s business and now brings in, on average, 1,000 new subscribers per day. (27:00) The single reason people trust Mike’s company and faithfully buy from them. It’s a counterintuitive strategy that most companies are too afraid to deploy. (31:15) The #1 mistake most social media marketers make when it comes to writing their copy. It’s incredibly easy to fix, but most social media marketers don’t realize how much this mistake hurts their integrity and don’t take the time to fix it. (32:35) Why “burying the lead” in Mike’s emails works wonders despite being a cardinal sin of copywriting. It’s a clever tactic that gets more of his reader’s eyes on more of his content regularly. (34:45) How to write for skimmers so they still get the important parts of the message in your emails or social posts. With just a few simple formatting tweaks, almost any piece of copy becomes easier to understand for the skimmers (which is most people). (37:05) Two free tools any copywriter can use to make great looking graphics. Including graphics in your copy is something many copywriters don’t think about, to their cost. (40:02) How to get started learning social media marketing the right way. The easy to use, weekly “tune-in-now” way to get started today. (44:45) How to play the long game in internet business and how doing so pays enormous dividends down the road. Most people think it’s too much work, but this particular long game is amazingly fruitful. (47:10) The secret equation Mike developed to create explosive growth in his business. He calls it the “elevation principle” and it’s so easy, anyone can use it at any stage of their business journey. (51:35) The “good enough” error so many marketers make. Are you making this mistake? How long are you willing to put up with that?

Over the past few weeks, we’ve had a “shake-up” on the show. We had several weeks in a row of freewheeling discussion with two of my assistants, Tiffany and Adrian, and my son, Sean. To please the long-time listeners, some of whom aren’t thrilled with this new style of episode, we’ve decided to launch a second podcast. That way, if you want to tune into the freewheeling silly stuff, you can do that. And if you want to hear the more serious business and copywriting stuff, you can do that too. Stay tuned over the next few weeks to learn more about the new podcast. Click here to download or listen to this episode now. Spiritual Foundations: Today on Spiritual Foundations I discuss… (1:55) Is it wrong to pray for your business? Many Christians I know think it’s greedy and selfish to ask God for material gain. Here’s what Peter has to say about it. (2:40) Why prayers about our worry and our prosperity change us. This change of perspective helps us see how God can communicate to us his plans for our prosperity in business. (3:10) A powerful method for building your faith and seeing more answers to your prayers. This works. I’m absolutely sure of it! Ray's Tip Of The Week This week I want to tell you about Cardflow Plus. (3:30) It’s an iPad app that’s helping me storyboard my videos. I like doing this on paper, but when that’s not an option, this app is saving the day. (3:55) It’s like a stack of virtual 3×5 index cards you can use for speeches or book outlines. It’s very versatile and easy to use. Check it out at http://www.qrayon.com/home/cardflow/. Episode Sponsor: Are you stuck in a humiliating, soul-sucking job?

Feature Presentation: In my conversation with world-class copywriter Kevin Rogers, you’ll discover… (5:50) How my guest went from a dead-broke stand-up comedian to a world-class copywriter. The simple joke formula he used to make the transition. (6:50) Why Kevin dropped out of high school and what he did instead. How being away from school helped him buckle down and study what he really loved. (8:45) Why stand-up comics posses a magic few others can grasp. It’s an outrageous phenomenon that causes a stranger to entertain a crowd of people with nothing but a microphone and some words. (10:46) Why vomiting before every performance, even in his 70s, meant Henry Fonda still had his head in the game. Without this one thing, you can get complacent and lose your edge. (11:40) The twisty-turny journey that took Kevin from comedy to copywriting guru-hood. How his amazing mentors helped him bridge the gap and reach the top of the field. (13:15) How stalking his favorite copywriter turned into a master-apprentice relationship. It helped him discover his unique copywriting identity and create a memorable platform. (19:05) The simple teachings in one of Dan Kennedy’s book that crystallized Kevin’s marketing learning. You can read piles of marketing books and never quite be sure you’re getting it right until you learn these simple truths. (20:45) How “not being desperate” does more for getting a sale than almost everything else. The manner of delivery is crucial and more important than almost any other marketing tactic. (23:15) Why the copywriting industry is filled with some of the most humane, caring, helpful people. It has to do with where we all came from at the start of our careers. (25:25) The secret reason why giving away your best stuff brings you fantastic rewards at least nine times out of ten. It’s the kind of behind-closed-doors strategy that makes us some of the most blessed freelancers in the world. (27:10) Why copywriters know more about abundance than the abundance guys do. A real-life example of a big-name personal development expert who secretly hates his customers and why copywriters are not really in competition with each other. (28:25) How a copywriting legend gave Kevin a chance to shine and helped him overcome imposter syndrome. It took an incognito trip to Chicago, a clipboard, and a little white lie to make it happen, but it happened. (35:45) The copywriter community Kevin built and where he now gives his full-time attention. It’s a gated, paid community where he shares all his greatest teachings, coaching, and encouraging to up-and-coming copywriters. (39:45) How Kevin’s community brings together the good copywriters who need better clients and business owners who need good copywriters. It’s a safe, win-win place where business marriages happen all the time. (44:50) The biggest challenge Kevin sees new copywriters struggling with and how to overcome them. It’s the one thing that makes great copywriters good at writing yet full of fear. (46:15) Why it’s crucial for copywriters to have swagger and humility at the same time. The unique working environment requires these two seemingly opposite traits and what copywriters can do to make sure they keep them in balance without being eaten alive by either. (48:10) The biggest challenge Kevin sees business owners struggling with when looking for a good copywriter. Disaster happens without this crucial understanding, in spite of good intentions. (50:10) Why thinking of copywriters as expensive “wordsmiths” is the single most deadly idea a business owner can have with regard to hiring a copywriter. It has to do with a profound, tweetable truth Kevin shared Resources RayTraining.com http://www.qrayon.com/home/cardflow/ Subscribe to the show through Apple Podcasts and give us a rating and review.
