As a graphic designer, I found Gimp to be a nice photoshop replacement.

[@ozzyfur8307]

ChakraW that’s what I tell my students to use. Photoshop although it’s a great piece of software. The fact that you can’t own it drives me nuts. Lol

Thank you so much! I love all your videos that focus on personal development. I was attracted to you as a teacher because in your first video course you talked about avoiding fear based marketing. I knew immediately that you would align with my core values and it would be empowering. I'm so happy I found your vids!

Once again Sarah, thank you for breaking it down further for the use of these tools. I have downloaded all these apps and really not using any of them, at best Word I was contemplating on mastering. I thought it was the in thing that everyone uses.

[@SarahTurnerAgency]

I love Google Docs so much more because multiple people can work on a doc at the same time, you can share it by sending a link to your client, and for me it's so much easier than word.

Great video Sarah! It really helped me find out what tools I need to implement in my business to provide a better sevice. I wonder, do you use any project management software to onboard clients and keep track of all client work?

Freshbooks is a great option for accounting, invoicing, and project management. There are a lot of tools out there, but it’s best to keep things as simple as possible. Thanks for watching!

Hi Sarah, I want to specialize in writing copy for home page intro videos. Do you think there is enough work for something that specific. For video I would focus on animated gif (created in photoshop). Thank you

[@SarahTurnerAgency]

People generally focus on video sales script or VSL (video sales letter).

Hey Sarah, I'm interrsted with your course as I highly believe it could help me build my copywriting business. (I'm at the overwhelmed stage now and lost on what things should I focus on) With that said, could we discuss things on the payment methods privately? I saw the payment plans that are listed and have something else to offer. (That is, if we come to a conclusion) Hope you'll reply. Talk to you soon, Yusuf

[@COKmedia]

Sarah, I wanted to ask. Is it true that it's best to learn copywriting from one person?

[@SarahTurnerAgency]

Since writing is subjective, it's best to get feedback from a few different people. That's why I created the facebook group for students in my course.

I prefer Squarespace because it is less complicated. If you're familiar with Wordpress, it's another option.

[@mdjunaidahmed5104]

Hi I love you so much

[@kentclarkp8461]

I admire your enthusiasm, personality, coaching, and optimism. But being more realistic that it won’t work for most introverted, less social people, for example, would be sooo helpful to know initially. You do mention it’s basically not like being a traditional writer, but it’s more sales, marketing, leads, and social media connections, etc than writing. Copywriter, even just as an occupation/job title is misleading. A disclaimer that first and foremost one really needs to be more like the typical sales person, manager, business owner, entrepreneur, etc for this to be successful would be very helpful and highly recommended . Otherwise some people get excited, like myself, then realize it’s not going to work, or not be anywhere near as successful as it is for more social, business/sales, web savvy people. Not just lacking optimism, but lacking the fundamental personality and views on business and sales that seem foundational or critical to this even being plausible.

[@SarahTurnerAgency]

Being a freelance copywriter is being a business owner and entrepreneur. But it's not like being a typical sales person or manager. Copywriters mostly work alone and a lot of us are introverts. Hiding behind your computer is one of the perks. Your writing speaks for itself and potential clients will see that with your cold emails, website copy, and portfolio pieces. So there isn't much "selling yourself". Most client interactions are via email. I truly think that this career is accessible to anyone whose willing to learn and practice the skills.

[@ozzyfur8307]

Reminder: don’t forget to eat lunch lol sorry had to say it 😁

[@SarahTurnerAgency]

Lol. Thanks
