Q1. Where are you from?

Ibadan, Nigeria

Q2. How did you discover copywriting?

I did a lot of English in junior high, and usually had the opportunity of editing pieces crafted by my friends and classmates. After leaving school, I edited a marketing piece for someone and she complimented it, saying it was so persuasive. She then asked if I was a copywriter and would like to work for her. I declined, but that grew the seed in my heart which I later followed to where I am now.

Q3. What forms of copy do you write?

Emails(The entire funnel), Sales Letters, abd Website Copy.

Q4. What are your favorite niches to write in?

E-commerce mostly, but I am open to all other niches. I believe that with proper research, anything can be written about.

Q5. What is the #1 lesson you've learned as a copywriter?

Always, always put the prospect’s needs first. Even when it’s your favorite edit, if it fits your prospect, you should use it.

Q6. Who is your favorite copywriter & why?

I have a couple, Alex Cattoni, Ning Li, Dolapo Hamzat. They all make copywriting so easy. They emphasize on the basics as that’s what makes copy work.

Q7. Do you have any recent wins to share?

I recently wrote a sales letter that was edited by my current coach, Ifiok Benard. He said it was pretty good. I can’t wait to see what the market thinks.
