Q1. Where are you from?
Australia
Q2. How did you discover copywriting?
I co-owned a hosting business back in the 90’s when people didn’t even have a web site let alone know what hosting was. We grew the business from one client to several thousand. I did a lot of searching online and found some great marketers who provided excellent advice in relation to copywriting.
Q3. What forms of copy do you write?
I write emails, blog posts, web content, sales copy.
Q4. What are your favorite niches to write in?
Some of my favourite niches are health and wellness, making money online, and abundance/manifestation. That having been said, I write across many niches.
Q5. What is the #1 lesson you've learned as a copywriter?
Not everyone will engage with the copy, and that’s ok. Everyone is different, and different things appeal to different people. Not to be discouraged if engagement is less than expected – tweak it and try again!
Q6. Who is your favorite copywriter & why?
Dan Kennedy and Bill Glazer – I know that’s two, but hard to separate them. I think Dan and Bill are so afar ahead of the field, they’re in a sphere of their own. They teach copy that works (from my experience) – tried and true.
Q7. Do you have any recent wins to share?
I haven’t done copywriting for some time – just starting back into it now, so I guess I’m back at the beginning. I do know from past experience though that I have what it takes.
Q8. What would you say to a prospective client who wants to hire you?
I’m excited to have the opportunity to work with you! I look forward to writing the copy you need for your business.
Q9. What is a good email address for prospective clients to contact you?
