You might not have been writing copy for long, but the clients you get seem to be impressed with the end result. And kudos to you. That tells me you’ve got some skills in the bag.
You’ve probably watched other copywriters take years to build their business, earning their copy stripes and more money as they go. You want to do that too… only much faster, and with fewer headaches along the way.
The good news is that there’s no reason you can’t fast-track your business by learning from those who went before you.
And one of the easiest ways to set yourself up for success is by improving your processes. Systemising means finally putting an end to that “making it up as you go along” feeling with clear steps for everything from converting leads to clients, managing your project flow, writing the copy and wrapping everything up with a giant “happy client” bow.
I know what you’re thinking. BORRRRR-RING. Maybe, you hoped I would suggest a sexy new website or a blown-out lead gen funnel,
But here’s the truth about growing your business.
You won’t get high paying clients without powerful systems that allow you to deliver top-quality copy wrapped up in an exceptional experience.
Strong processes help you deliver top-quality copy wrapped up in an exceptional experience. And that’s what high-paying clients demand.
When she started her business, Inkhouse, in September 2018, Eman Ismail was able to get her initial clients from her connections with local charities. But she quickly realized her rate — £15 an hour — was way too low.
“I didn’t know how to price my services. I was doing a lot of work because I had clients, but I wasn’t making very much money. I knew I needed some help,”
Eman used the monthly copywriting resources, tutorials, and templates, as well as a group coaching and accountability calls in Confident Copywriting to 4x her monthly revenue and raise her day rate by 66% – in under 12 months.
The group coaching calls helped change Eman’s mindset about talking money with clients. Listening to other copywriters work through similar issues with Belinda made her feel like her challenges were solvable.
But it’s not just financial stability that Eman loves about running her copywriting business. She’s also able to pick her son up from the nursery every day and no longer has a boss to report to.
“Being able to manage my own time and not having a boss has changed my entire life. I’m so happy and I don’t ever want to work for anyone else again.”
She even took a two week holiday in Spain, which Eman says she wouldn’t have been able to afford without the support she found in Confident Copywriting.
And since this her business has gone from strength to strength (hitting new income goals all the time!)
Eman is now a 6-figure copywriter known around the world.
Hey, I’m Belinda Weaver (but you can call me Bill) — owner of Copywrite Matters, cohost of the Hot Copy Podcast and massive Dr Who fan.
I’m an Australian living in California with my husband, two small humans and my pug, Ferris.
My days are made up of writing copy and creating content, cuddling my pug, coaching calls, preparing meals, singing loudly, sending love notes to my husband, answering emails, adding to the great big list of ideas and secretly listening to podcasts while listening to my children tell me very long stories about TV shows.
And my business is helping me live the kind of life I want to live without having to compromise my career or my ambitions (in a “regular day job”). I’ve lived in Australia, England and now America and my business hasn’t stopped. I’ve had one kid, then another, and my business has continued to thrive.
Are those the kinds of boxes you want to tick in your life?
Then you’re in the right place.
One final thought for you. Systemising your business will make your work faster, easier and prepare and prepare you for growth.
When you can deliver an exceptional customer experience on autopilot, you’ll have the creative energy for clients with bigger projects (and bigger budgets).
Your job now is to map out that client experience!
Systems that have been tried and tested. Processes that make your work easy.
But that’s not all. Resources and expert advice from experienced copywriters. A community of people who can help you avoid pitfalls, bumps and gut-wrenching uncertainty. Does that sound like the kind of business development shortcut you want?
Confident Copywriting is where it’s at. My private coaching group for aspiring and working copywriters.
