I'm your host Christian Klepp, and one of the founders of EINBLICK Consulting. Our goal is to share inspirational stories, tips and insights from b2b marketers, digital entrepreneurs, and industry experts that will help you to think differently, succeed and scale your business.Okay, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this episode of the B2B Marketers on a Mission podcast. I'm your host, Christian Klepp. And today I'd like to welcome a guest to the show who is an expert in the field of b2b technology copywriting. Her copy has helped her clients to skyrocket the response rates, clearly communicate complex messages. And as she likes to put it turns skeptical b2b tech buyers into your best customers. So Rachel Foster, welcome to the show.Rachel Foster 00:53Thank you. Thanks for the invite.Christian Klepp 00:56Yeah, I hope I did you some justice with that introduction. I'm absolutely thrilled to have you on the show, Rachel. So let's get things started. You know, tell the listeners a little bit about yourself and also how you got into copywriting. I'm pretty sure there's an interesting backstory there.Rachel Foster 01:18So I've been doing b2b tech copywriting, I launched my business, Fresh Perspective Copywriting, in 2009. I'm based out of Toronto, and I'm originally from the States from the Niagara Falls / Buffalo area. And I moved to Toronto in 2007 after I married my Canadian husband, and so I was just kind of looking for something to do. And I was trying to find some work and I ended up getting a job that just was not a good fit, for me to say the least. There's a big story, I won't go into everything. So I ended up going to see a life coach and trying to figure out what I wanted to do. And because I had spent three years prior to moving to Canada as a proposal writer for an architectural firm, she suggested that I try freelance copywriting. And so at first I was hesitant, because I didn't see myself like going into business and trying to sell and doing all of that and, and she said, I think you could be really good at it. So I ended up hearing about a course that a local b2b copywriter Steve Slaunwhite was posting on how to get started as a freelance writer and I went to it and after that I was sold. I was like, Okay, I'm all in, I'm going for it.Christian Klepp 02:35Nice. And the rest, as they say, is history. Right?Rachel Foster 02:40After that, I was actually fortunate enough to get a grant from the province of Ontario business startup grant.
