Guaranteed.  \nDear AWAI Student,  \nHi. I’m Beth Erickson.  \nYou don’t know me, but we have something in common. Something big.  \nWe’re both students in Michael Masterson’s Accelerated Program for Six-Figure Copywriting.  \nKatie from AWAI called me the other day and asked if I’d tell you my “story.” She said that because I have more writing assignments than I know what to do with, I might be able to give you a few ideas about how you can start your own thriving copywriting business.  \nBut first, I should probably introduce myself.  \nLike I said, I’m Beth Erickson. I’m not a Masterson, Mahoney, Hollingshead, or Bly. I don’t suppose I could be classified a “Master Copywriter” by any stretch of the imagination.  \nWhat I am is someone who finished AWAI’s basic program, got myself a writing coach (AWAI Board Member John LaBine), and learned EVERYTHING I could from him. And not just writing – but how to land clients too. I told him that I wanted to quit my tailoring job and start writing for actual PAYING clients more than anything.  \nSo, John told me how to find the companies that hire copywriters, where I could find the best Internet sites for getting direct mail copywriting jobs… and he showed me how to cut through a corporation’s maze and contact the person who would hire me.  \nHe taught me how to approach clients and how to close the deal.  \nAfter I finished my coaching sessions, I drafted a simple sales letter to solicit business for myself—and sent it to local firms. Before I knew it, I was a freelance copywriter, using the very same skills you’re learning every time you crack open your AWAI materials.  \nMy first client was the second-largest drug rehab center in Minnesota. They needed a two-page fundraising letter. I didn’t have ANY idea what to charge. I live in an extremely rural community in the center of Minnesota, so I knew the fees I’d discussed with my coach were probably higher than I could ask. I quoted how many hours I’d need to complete the letter along with an hourly rate. The client thought it sounded great.  \nMore   \nI drove home, grabbed my calculator, and did the math. Then I had to sit down. It took a few minutes for reality to sink in: I was about to earn (copywriting for two days) what would normally take me three WEEKS to earn in my “former” profession – tailoring men’s clothing.  \nI immediately called Katie (I’m sure I sounded like an idiot), and she assured me that I wasn’t overcharging. She even offered to give the letter a “once-over” before I submitted it to the client. In fact, I’m not sure I would have had the nerve to write or even begin to charge that much for a two-pager if I hadn’t received comments from someone who was a copywriting pro. Katie’s gracious offer served as the launch pad for my freelance copywriting business.  \nIfAll I Received From AWAIWas A Copywriting Career, I Would Have Been Thrilled. But The Story Doesn’t End Here….  \nSince then, I’m not only working for local businesses on a regular basis, I’ve also taken what I’ve learned from AWAI and sold one novel to Deep South Publishing in Bangor, Maine and just signed the contract for a non-fiction book called “Jumpstart Your Writing Career and Snag Paying Assignments” (same publisher) .  \nI’ve got my own web site ([http://filbertpublishing.com](http://filbertpublishing.com)) and I’ve published well over 100 articles—some of which have been “picked up” by the AP wire service. Imagine sitting on the couch watching The Nightly News with Peter Jennings and hearing your news story—word-for-word—coming out of his mouth. Yup. Happened to me…  \nEvery one of my writing successes came AFTER I began Michael Masterson’s Accelerated Program for Six-Figure Copywriting. And without my coach, I know I wouldn’t have started my own freelance copywriting business, nor would I have had the tools to sell not one but TWO books toa publisher.  \nA","cbCaih9v1NUQFTRM","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaih9v1NUQFTRM","pdf",338853,10,"English","# Getting Clients program overview\n## The six-week guaranteed timeline\n## What the personal coach provides\n## Client growth and deal-closing methods","[{\"question\":\"What is the “Getting Clients” program being launched by AWAI?\",\"answer\":\"It is AWAI’s program designed to help learners land paying copywriting clients, with a personal AWAI pro coaching and supporting them through the process.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the program promise regarding a first client?\",\"answer\":\"It promises that a first paying copywriting client can be obtained within six weeks of starting, with a stated guarantee.\"},{\"question\":\"How does a personal coach help participants succeed?\",\"answer\":\"The coach critiques the participant’s first project to make it as powerful as possible and guides methods for approaching potential clients, negotiating fees, and closing the deal.\"}]","Getting Clients with AWAI - Land Your First Copywriting Client in Six Weeks, Guaranteed | PDF",1789287132]
