Thank you for this. What I love about this video is that I can sense that you are genuine in what you are saying, no hidden agenda.

I've been unemployed for a few years now while depending on my parents. Currently learning Copywriting and studying it very hard so I could also use your method on how to land clients.

[asbaran]

I'm half-way through your video and I can sense that you genuinely want write writers go the freelance route.

Everything you mentioned made perfect sense, especially the downsides of working with certain entities.

You're really giving me great insights on how to be more strategic on picking clients. 

Great video Christine!

Thank you for your advice. I’m a single mom of two kids and working full time in a different industry. I’m working towards becoming a full time copywriter so this information was pure gold! I’m so grateful for your services.

[MichaelMiller-bmzh]

The real estate market collapsed here in the midwest ruining my 25 years of real estate appraisal so I considered my talents and realized I have been writing since I was a teenager. Poetry, short stories, and a couple of unpublished books fed my passion for words. I am in the early stages of opening a blog. I intend to build from that.

[Jennyredroses]

Definitely agree that this channel is so underrated! I absolutely love your transparency and all the details about what it's like to work in this industry. I've been umming and ahhing about copywriting since 2020 and finally feel like I have enough information to see myself making the switch. Currently working full-time as a translator & editor for agencies, would love to work part-time as a copywriter and get paid the same. I have major social anxiety holding me back from client calls, so I really needed that pep talk. Heading over to watch your sales call video next :)

Sales is directly related to copywriting. Good copy sells products. So whether you know it or not, your sales experience helped you transition much faster.

Christine consistently provides the very BEST real-world advice drawn from her own experiences / challenges. These are like mini courses in and of themselves. I'm saving up to take her program. My situation: Currently, I'm writing copy? Years ago, I reached out to an "influencer" in the personal development space (she sells online writing courses, self-love programs, personal development courses etc...) Anyway, currently I create inspirational quote posts on Canva and write "copy" to direct potential clients to our landing pages. It's not copy on the same scale AT ALL, but I really love creating and scheduling posts. I've been doing this for her on my free time for years now but I want to "level up" to actual copy. I could leverage this experience on Linkedin, but afraid its woefully insufficient. Anyway, here we are.

OMG thank you sooo much for the suggestion of writing for healing crystals company!!!! I am very into everything energy healing, so this was the PERFECT out of the box suggestion!!!!

[paritoshsontakke]

Thanks Christine for sharing your amazing experience. I can resonate with the fact that agencies do not treat you well. I gave my 100% and still I had to witness to their rude behavior. Anyway I am moving ahead with that experience. Someday it's really gonna make sense and I will the successful copywriter, I know. 😊

[destinationawaken]

Agency work sounds wonderful to me because I am already doing client acquisition and marketing for my wellness travel business. thank you for this video.

[kale]

Every time I listen to your content I go to subscribe but every time I find that I’ve already done it! So valuable!

[destinationawaken]

Hey Christine, I like your practical advice about getting a leg up as a freelancer. I recently lost my clients and want to get back in the game. I’m 75 going on 18 and would just like to get enough work to keep my head above water as inflation starts eating into my retirement check. As you said, “It’s a numbers game.” Most of my forays at cold pitching and applying to companies have been lackluster and haven’t produced any progeny. Maybe it’s just me, but I think there’s a reluctance to take on an older writer. The client may think that I’ll contract Alzheimer’s or just drop dead. My intention is to hang around until I’m in my 120s. The niche I like is tech and the audience is B2B. I’m open to anything at this stage in my writing life. How can I break through the glass ceiling during this disruptive period of ChatGPT automatons? Thanks for sharing your story and experiences because it keeps me from just giving up on this opportunity.

The pure gold info that you get on this channel is just fantastic❤

[ryehlb]

So many insights in one video. Thank you so much, Christine.

Oh, my situation? I'm currently doing a part-time job for real estate but I've been studying freelancing for the past few months so I could eventually land a client and go full time. I've just finished learning how to become a Video Editor as well as a Project Manager. However, my love for words is leading me to become a Copywriter, hence, I'm a constant viewer of your videos. I'm planning, too, to get your course, I just need to get some clients first for my real estate job to secure my next year's finances.

By the way, I'm a Christian, too! Lord willing, I'll soon learn from you, Christine.

Again, thank you for making these awesome videos about Copywriting.

My wife and I want to hit the road with a Truck and fifth wheel camper and write to pay us both as we travel. It gives the flexibility and money to do whatever we want. We have a 6 month window to get this thing kicked in high gear and either sell our property or make enough money with writing to get me out of a job and come home with her and both kill it. I have sales experience and metal working experience also. Was hoping to write for some companies that have welding machines or welding instructions etc. may not be a lot of people doing this. Open field possibly. She was looking at holistic and homesteading. Thanks for the info. Well done. We got a lot out of the video.

Hah, Sales is related to Copywriting 💕

Sales is not an unrelated career field?
