Q1. Where are you from?
Nigeria
Q2. How did you discover copywriting?
I discovered copywriting after two unsuccessful attempts at starting an online business. I knew that I couldn’t afford to make a third mistake, so I decided to educate myself by joining a couple of marketing email lists. It was there that I first heard the term “copywriting” mentioned several times. Intrigued, I decided to research it further and found that copywriting was a way to use persuasive language to sell products or services.
I was immediately drawn to the idea of using words to influence people’s behavior, and I began to study the art of copywriting in-depth. I learned everything I could about crafting compelling headlines, writing persuasive copy, and creating effective calls to action.
As I continued to study and practice copywriting, I found that I had a natural talent for it. I began to take on freelance copywriting projects and quickly built up a portfolio of successful campaigns. Since then, I’ve continued to hone my skills and expand my knowledge of copywriting, and it has become a passion that I truly enjoy.
