How to get all the copywriting work you can stand
Published: Fri, 04/03/20
Back in Summer of 2004, having been in “copywriting” for about two years, I got a call from Michael Senoff. I had been a fan of his audio interviews and his swipe file collection, and had written about them both on my website at the time. Someone must have told him about it, he called me up, and he asked if I’d be up for writing an ad.
Specifically, he gave me two options:
1. He could pay me a couple thousand dollars as a fee
2. We could JV on it — so I write the copy for “free” up front, but we split all the sales 50/50.
I took the 50/50 option, of course.
And, a merry time was had by all, debts were paid off in spades, and business was raring.
The point of this story?
There are clients who need copy — even desperately so — who will very likely be willing to do deals like this. Now, if/when you find these kinds of clients, you are on your own as far as putting the deals together. And you have to realize there is always a chance you will get cheated, or will end up dealing with someone who never runs your copy, or even if they do they start to wonder why they are paying you afterwards (as Michael told me at the time when we signed an agreement — “People get weird when big money is made.”)
Thus, discernment is required.
The moral of this is, opportunity is out there.
Right now, and especially as long as there is uncertainty, opportunity will abound.
And, you can learn a lot about how to hustle and make it all work for your business by knowing a guy like Michael — which is one reason I wanted to sell his Emergency Fast Cash audios as an affiliate.
It contains 39 different ways to generate emergency cash for your business.
And, a couple of these audios include advice he’s given to copywriters specifically.
Here is the deal:
Michael’s program normally lists for $597, but he will sell them for just $47 to my Horde via my affiliate link below, if you do it by Sunday, April 5 at midnight PDT.

If you buy from my affiliate link below by the deadline, you not only get the $597 “Emergency Fast Cash Now” series for a mere $47… but you will also get:
“The Stefania Files: Volume 4”
This is the latest round of 10 private videos I recorded for my woman Stefania's (and sometimes her clients') marketing education. They add up to over two hours of pure content. And they are, in their own way, some of the most valuable trainings I've ever done.
Anyway, to get the Emergency Fast Cash Audios plus these Stefania File: Volume 4 videos, go here before the Sunday, April 5 at midnight PDT deadline:

* The micro lesson I would have taught the audience at Funnel Hacking Live if I’d spoken there when I was invited to last year.
* A 26-minute “crash course” on how almost anyone using email — newb or guru — can get maximum deliverability & engagement. (I was hopped up on the pre-workout in the car when I recorded this puppy — and in some ways, this is the single most valuable “email” lesson I can possibly teach anyone.)

* An infamous MD’s “pre selling” secret to being the only business people buy from even if you aren’t the best marketer, copywriter, or salesman. (Admittedly this is a time intensive idea you’ll have to apply to your business, marketing, and branding — but it can potentially change everything very quickly for those who use it.)
* What extroverts can do to get a lot more work done.
* What introverts can do to get a lot more work done.
