They're not going to hire me
|
Hey there Reader, I had a call with a potential copywriting client yesterday. It was scheduled for 30 minutes, but it went on for almost an hour. But I told them not to hire me. The thing is, Google did another update recently and website traffic has taken a hit for many companies, including the one in question. They're a newer company and I advised them against investing in my services right now. They need some other assets in place first. So I gave them some free advice on DIY-ing the pre-work that happens before the conversion copywriting process. And I could see that they were both scribbling notes like mad while I was talking. If they need me later, I'll be thrilled to help them. If they don't, I'll be thrilled to see them DIY-it all the way. The point is, that I want them to succeed with or without me. Success is not a limited resource βthere's more than enough success available for everyone, including you. If you're stuck and you have a private practice or writing business question and need some quick advice, hit reply and let me know. I want you to succeed. :) Talk soon, Julie p.s. Did you get this from a friend? Well, hello there! I'm Julie. I believe you can build the income you need and a life you love when you become a working writer.

Hey there Reader, I'm helping a therapist launch his first book next month. He's starting from absolute zero - no email list, no social media following, just 58 friends and family. This week, we recruited his ARC team (Advanced Reader Copy team - people who read the book early and leave reviews on launch day). Here's what happened: Geoff emailed 58 friends and family members this past Thursday. (He didn't email past clients to avoid any potential HIPAA violation). So far, 14 people have said...
Hey there Reader, I'm officially another year older today, and I have a birthday gift for you. I'm working with Geoff Brookshire, an LCSW whose upcoming book is titled Toddler Parenting. It's about working with a toddler's developmental stage instead of against it, and about handling toddler tantrums and behavior with more peace. No time-outs, no counting to three, no harsh punishment. No anxiety-inducing strategies to "win" β for parent or child. Geoff has more than 25 years of experience as...
