No more struggling. No more worrying. No more wasting time.
The first step to running a copywriting business is to get good at writing. Shock, right?! Don't worry - this is absolutely something you can learn!
In Module 1 you're going to:
Before we dive into the copywriting skills, we've got to make sure you know what to expect and that your business foundations are there. I wish I knew how much this mattered when I started my business!
In Module 2 you're going to
The ONLY way to effectively cut through that noise and attract the right people is to get super clear about who you want to work with and write for - and decide what you offer and lay out your table. You're the boss and you call the shots. What does YOUR business specialise in?
In Module 3 you're going to:
It's vital to understand how to market and sell yourself and your services, and overcome the fear so many business owners have of getting visible and actually selling your services to the people who need them.
In Module 4 you're going to:
Not the sexiest step perhaps but a VITAL one if you want to run a successful copywriting business. Without control of your cash and contracts, you'll fail!
In Month 5 you're going to:
The one SO many creatives forget: Setting up processes and systems that enable you to be creative as much as possible, and that promote flexibility, freedom and empowerment in your business and life.
In Month 6 you're going to:

I started my copywriting business from scratch in 2018, after leaving my corporate sales career behind.
In just four years, I grew my business to six-figures (I now realise how little that goal matters by the way).
More importantly - I've helped over 400 business owners learn to write better copy through my courses and coaching.
But, my journey hasn't been without its bumps and bruises. When I started my copywriting business I had no idea what I was doing, so I had to learn everything the hard way.
That meant lots of expensive, painful, recovering-people-pleaser mistakes were made before I finally got to grips with what it meant to be the BOSS in my own business.
Now, I've poured everything I've learned over the last six years into Paid to Write so you don't have to learn the hard way.
All the tools, techniques, systems, templates and strategies I've developed are inside, and I'm ready to share my blueprint for success with you so you can START or GROW your successful copywriting business without having to make the mistakes I made!
Chantelle's copywriting business course is a perfect blend of copywriting and business lessons. Not only have I gained key copywriting skills, formulas and templates to create copy that sells, I have reinforced my business and marketing knowledge whilst learning from a wonderful group of women. This course has given me the tools to build my own copywriting business. When you speak directly to your ideal client, it really works and I have attracted the best clients to my coaching business! If you are either interested in becoming a copywriter OR you think you could be the best person to do the copywriting for your own business (whatever your business sells), I strongly recommend this course to give you the tools to speak to your target client compellingly.
Don't waste any more time in an unfulfilling job or situation. After 20 years commuting and working joylessly in the city, I didn't realize there were other options out there. At 57 now, I say don't wait - pick up that mantle and run with it. Invest in your future, your sanity, your life.
If you have any passion for writing, now is the time to make it happen, especially with so many businesses operating online. As writers, we can make a huge impact helping those businesses grow.
There are always ways to invest in yourself if you want to - through payment plans or otherwise. Don't waste another 5, 10 or 20 years stuck somewhere you don't want to be. The opportunity is here to create work you love.
Ask yourself - where do you truly want to be a year from now? If the answer is running a successful copywriting business, feeling empowered and in control, this course can get you there.
If your goal is to build something you love, make an impact with your writing, and establish yourself as your own boss - not just an employee of your own company - this course lays that strong foundation.
I've taken other copywriting and business courses before, and nothing compared to the value I got here - both in learning to write high-converting copy and in building a sustainable business as a copywriter.
If in a year you want to look back and see your copywriting career thriving, yourself empowered, and your lifestyle aligned with your goals, this course can absolutely help get you there.
NOW IS THE TIME TO GET STARTED!
The personalised learning pathway inside this hybrid self-paced and group coaching course will guide you through everything you need to know in order to START or GROW your successful copywriting business.
Whether you're already running a business, but not quite where you want to be, or you're starting from scratch...
You'll learn how to find clients, write persuasive copy, and set up a profitable business from scratch – even if you don't have any experience.
