A professional copywriter describes how she built her business
Become a successful copywriter. If I can do it, you can too!
When you’ve been in business for several years and have achieved at least a modest level of success, you’re likely to be asked by others about your journey. As a well-established copywriter, I frequently get emails from people seeking guidance as they begin their writing career as well as various media sites requesting an interview or even just a few tips to help junior copywriters get their start.
What follows below are links to some of those interviews. Perhaps they will help answer questions you have about entering the field of copywriting.
However, keep in mind that the best way to learn is by doing. Consuming information about your craft is a good beginning but it is just a beginning. Implementing what you learn in completing copywriting assignments — whether for school or for clients — is where you’ll gain skills and confidence.
