[@gavinneth4687]

Being rich is not about making big bucks. It's FREEDOM, HAPPINESS, EXPERIENCES, and FULFILLMENT that makes you rich. Thanks for being a massive inspiration as always. Continue being awesome! 😃

As amazing as that invoice is, thanks for including those first 4 ways; I am much less interested in being a millionaire as I am in taking back control of my time and my life, and getting the reassurance that copywriting can help me do that is hugely motivating. You always have awesome content, and I'm looking forward to joining the world of copywriters!

[@AlexCattoni]

Ugg omg yes!!! That is truly being rich! Love that.

Motivation to learn copywriting 😍😍can you please make some videos on how to practice copywriting ?

[@Number9Cutie]

This was so great, Alex! Thank you. My eyes literally bulged out of my head when I saw that invoice 🤣 I have a request for your tips on how to deal with clients who constantly want to play it safe, don't know how to step out of boring corporate voice, and are too scared to go with a more edgy tone of voice EVEN when you know in your GUT that it would totally resonate with their target audience ?? This is a common theme for me when working with certain clients. They are just knee-deep in fear. They are so scared to do things differently.

[@AlexCattoni]

Ugh, yes I hear you! Unfortunately that's ultimately their decision, all you can do is your best to educate and "nudge" them :)

[@Number9Cutie]

@@AlexCattoni got it! ok thank you :) I will keep doing that

[@MintNHoney]

Very compelling reasons to become a copywriter. I love both freedom and experiences and it definitely requires money to maintain that livelihood lol.

Hi Alex! tnx for your great videos, is this important to be connected with client's Digital marketer to write copies? also what other persons can be vital for a copywriter in a company

Yes! You as a copywriter too should have a strong grasp of marketing- they go hand in hand. But you definitely will work closely with the clients marketing team/lead to map out the campaign!

​@@AlexCattoni, how do you track that? Can you do a video about how to track what you deserve if you agree to work off of commission, please?

[@ak51431]

I gave up on copywriting. For now 😅 I was surrounded by people who didn't understand why they needed to pay more to a copywriter, if anyone can write. People don't care about creativity. They just need someone who writes words with 100% proofreading ability. I haven't watched your videos for a couple of months. I felt so demotivated. Now I am ready to be interested again. But I decided to keep copywriting for myself and for those chosen ones who cares 😂 I will try to do something else for my living. Thank you Alex for your videos! Do you know that feeling when somebody takes thought and say it loud? I've never read books about copywriting, but I had certain feelings on how it should look like. When I found your KZbin Channel I got proofs that those feelings are real, not just in my head 😊

[@anastasiashiverskikh9914]

Alla, so happy that you're back in the game. If I may offer my opinion after having worked in the industry for some time: although as a copywriter you may think of yourself as creative, remember that copy is text that sells. So when they hire you, they aren't hiring you to create a piece of art, they're hiring you to sell. And I would recommend starting to read those books :D Cause although you may have a strong gut feel, that's not going to get you far. Like Alex said - you get what you put out. So you gotta start taking them courses and devouring them books and then ofc applying it in real life.

[@ak51431]

@@anastasiashiverskikh9914 Thank you, Anastasia 😊 I know exactly what you are talking about 😉 I don't think of my copy as a piece of art. I'm using it as an instrument that sales ☺

[@AlexCattoni]

Keep at it! I promise you that their ARE businesses and brands out there that do, in fact, know the value of a good copywriter! I agree, it can take some time to find them - and YES it can be super frustrating. But it's possible :)

@@AlexCattoni That is true! You are the best teacher!!

[@trevor7234]

Hey! You are awesome and I love your content. Quick question: Do copywriters deal with the actual placement of words, visual art, effects, etc. of landing pages, emails, blogs, etc. or do you just write everything out on a simple word document, send it to them, and they are responsible for handling the actual input of info and editing images to it, etc.?

[@AlexCattoni]

Copywriters are ONLY responsible for the words :) With that said, of course if you have a specific design idea in mind that you believe will compliment your copy, and vision, you can absolutely make note of that suggestion to your client. But ultimately, the design is up to them.

[@Moodymizzy]

How many clients do you have/do you get the time to work with in the same month?

[@AlexCattoni]

When I was a solo freelancer I had one big client that I worked for on retainer and then I would pick up one-off projects here and there, depending on how much I wanted to work or travel that month.

[@Moodymizzy]

@@AlexCattoni I see, mind telling us roughly how much you charged per month based on how much work you did for that 1 client? (I appreciate the quick response, you’re the best:)

[@Cpatel217]

All you need is an internet connection, a computer, pen and paper, and some books. Technically you might not even need the last two but I prefer physical items instead of digital everything.

[@AlexCattoni]

Yes - you can! You may need to be extra diligent to ensure your copy has. no mistakes - maybe even hiring a proofreader. OR you could alternatively write copy in your native tongue :)

[@AlexCattoni]

That depends on you! When you're a freelancer you get to decide that ;) What I typically do when I want a "true vacation" is work ahead for all my retainer clients. That way I don't have much - if anything - to do while actually on vacation. But in the beginning of my freelancing career I traveled A LOT. So I worked while I traveled because traveling was more of a lifestyle rather than just a "vacation".
