If you dream of thriving as a freelance copywriter, there’s a vital truth you must embrace:

WEALTHY COPYWRITERS AVOID JOB BOARDS.

Those earning $75,000, $100,000, or even $150,000 a year steer clear of platforms like Upwork or Fiverr. Why? Here are three undeniable reasons:

Firstly, job boards are saturated with competition. With dozens or even hundreds of proposals flooding in for every job, it’s nearly impossible to stand out.

Secondly, job boards foster a race to the bottom in pricing. Overseas freelancers charging rock-bottom rates often snatch up gigs, leaving you struggling to make ends meet.

Lastly, job boards can be a colossal time sink. Hours spent crafting proposals often result in radio silence, leaving you empty-handed and frustrated.

But fear not! In this course, I’ll guide you through proven strategies to secure freelance copywriting work without the hassle of job boards.

I’m Alan Sharpe, and I’ve been crafting copy since 1989, earning a comfortable $150,000 annually as a freelance copywriter—all without touching a job board.

The key to success? Direct outreach to potential clients. By bypassing job boards, you’ll face less competition, command higher rates, and seize control of your career trajectory.

In this course, I’ll reveal my insider secrets for finding freelance copywriting work, from professional associations to trade show directories and beyond. You’ll learn precisely where to look, leveraging over three decades of my experience.

Here’s the kicker: I won’t steer you towards conventional methods like tapping into your social network or attending networking events. Those are dead ends for ambitious copywriters.

Instead, I’ll empower you to explore over a dozen unconventional yet highly effective avenues for client acquisition. Say goodbye to mediocre results and hello to a six-figure income by implementing the strategies outlined in this course.

Ready to take the reins of your copywriting career? Let’s embark on this journey together.
