⚡️ WHO IS ALEX CATTONI & THE COPY POSSE?
The Copy Posse was started with one sole mission: to redefine what it means to be a copywriter, marketer, and entrepreneur today.
Founded by 2022’s Marketer of The Year, Alex Cattoni, her inspiration came after observing a dangerous divide in the copywriting industry...
She noticed that while there were a lot of brilliant and authentic marketers out there, many still used manipulative, hypey, and severely outdated sales tactics that she just didn’t vibe with…
That’s why in 2019, after 8 years of working behind-the-scenes with the hottest transformational authors and businesses on the planet, Alex decided to start THIS KZbin channel 🙌
To teach people the techniques and strategies she’s used to build a heart-centered, authentic, and lucrative copywriting business from the ground up…
And get more messages that matter to the masses.
It is our conviction that the BEST copywriting today combines proven marketing principles with modern-day branding and storytelling.
We believe your message matters and your words can change the world. You have the power to create the life of your dreams, build a lucrative business AND make an impact on humanity with the type of marketing that today’s businesses need and today’s audiences crave.
Through our online programs and social communities, we’ve helped hundreds of thousands of rad humans find more freedom, have more fun, and sell more products and services without selling out on their integrity…
And we want to help YOU do the same.
Subscribe to our channel so you don’t miss out on the latest copywriting, marketing, branding, and social media lessons.

5 Mistakes New Copywriters Make That Keep Them Stuck & Broke 1. Taking shortcuts * Read the books, take the courses, join the copywriting communities 2. The lone wolf/DIY mentality * To do something you've never done before, you need accountability...mentors, communities etc. * Join memberships, hire coaches etc. 3. Expecting to be hired by dream clients immediately * When getting started, don't be too choosy. Build experience * Get paid before getting choosy 4. Backfiring boundaries * When beginning, go for connections, authority and experience * Charge more as your expertise grows 5. The one-way highway * Don't just use one method to find new clients * Tell EVERYONE you meet that you're a copywriter * There is no one magic way of finding clients Thanks Alex!!

How do we find mentors?

[@AlexCattoni]

Check out this video I made on how to find a mentor! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fovHp4ltbtZmjbs

[@MODEST500]

can you pls make a video on how many clients should a beginner copywriter handle at once lol.

[@lannek3240]

That is completely up to you and depends on how much time you have to work on copywriting and how much the client is asking you to do. If it’s only a few emails a week, you can probably get 5-6 clients (if you can sign that many as a beginner) and be fine. If the clients you have want emails, sales copy, vsl & KZbin scripts every week, that takes more time so naturally you won’t be able to handle as many clients

[@MODEST500]
