[GET] Lessons from a 6 Figure Copywriter to his Sister
Hi, I found this on Twitter (believe it or not) and it linked back to a Reddit thread. These are Screencast videos (voice over text) so they aren't great but I think the info is quite good. If you're thinking about copywriting for a living this would be a good place to start. Unfortunately, the last video requires a password and I haven't found it yet. What follows is the thread from Reddit. Enjoy.
Cheers,

I make around $300,000 a year as a freelance copywriter. My sister recently lost her job and I'm teaching her copywriting from scratch. Thought I'd share the videos I'm making and sending her.

Like the title says, my sister lost her job after over a decade of working with a particular company. She wants to start making money online because -- frankly -- that job was killing her with stress.

I have been working solely online during that same decade. She's kind of seen me go from broke freelancer to making a mid six-figure income while traveling and asked me to teach her.

So this was a really unique challenge -- can I teach my older sister to be a six-figure copywriter from scratch? And do it in about 6 to 12 months?

So far I've been making her instructional videos and taking her through the process from scratch.

Here are the videos:

Video One: "Direct Response 101 And Why Direct Response Copywriters Make So Much Money"
https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cFle1UrtOa

Video Two: "Selling, Consummer Psychology, And 'Emotional Manipulation'
https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cFlhjZrvgN

Video Three: "Understanding And Identifying Primal Desires"
https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cqVhQT3Vk3

Video Four: "The Formula For Coming Up With 'Unique Mechanisms' or THE BIG MARKETING IDEA:
https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cqVh6n3Vkp

Video Five: How to find promotions that other companies are running (and also use this as a way to find clients) https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cqVOhj3UkD

Video Six: How do we come up with these insane "1,000% gains!" promises in financial copywriting and justify them legally (Or "SHOW -- don't tell" rule in copywriting)
https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cqVOb43UNd

Video Seven: How newbies can get copywriting jobs [PT 1]

Video Eight: he Right Way To Cold Email (Based On A Guy Who Cold Emailed Us) THIS is how you get clients

They are videos, not audios. I can't see any reason that you couldn't download them.

RE: [GET] Lessons from a 6 Figure Copywriter to his Sister
Found this podcast interview with William McCanless

https://successfuldropout.com/high-schoo...mccanless/

Enjoy!

Here's the video channel...

https://screencast-o-matic.com/channels/cqV02N5Mh

Cheers!

I found the timestamp for the last video...

START - 9:31: I just talk about the recent travels I've been on, show some pictures and videos, and share what I've been up to over the last few months.

9:31 - 18:55: The value of short copy, why everybody is so desperate for it, how much you can get paid, what people use it for, and why it's a great way to break into this industry in general.

18:55 - 31:15: Meet James, who cold emailed us and did it PERFECTLY. If you can copy what he did, you'll be successful in finding new clients (or even just your very first client). NOTE: He DID NOT share a portfolio! He pretty much did exactly what I suggest on my previous video!

31:15 - END: A VERY SPECIAL QUESTION FOR YOU

Were you able to listen to Video 8 from the link because it requires the password.
Cheers
