Sharing what I learn.

How I landed my first copywriting client with zero experience:

@Antoninologgia Especially as a beginner!

Consistent small steps over intense sprints.

As you advance it gets easier to put in more focused effort.

6. Do this a 100 times.

Expect rejection.

Reflect on what you could’ve done better and move on to the next one.

Happy hunting.

5. Shoot them an email and pitch your sample or solution.

Make it simple, highlight how not doing x, y or z means leaving money on the table.

Be confident and let them know you can fix it for them.

"If you'd like to hear more..."

You get the idea.

Sometimes you just have to hit that "new" button and start banging on the keyboard

Reminder that working a 9-5 is more productive than binge watching YT shorts on how to escape the 9-5.

Especially if you're doing it from your moms basement.

Get a taste of it before you talk down on it.

Moved to another country this month and took a break from the internet.

Used a pen & paper for 20 days, and now that I'm back on the PC I feel more focused than ever.

Changing my environment was the missing ingredient. Much easier to solidify new habits.

LinkedIn Learning has some excellent courses.

Use that 1 month free trial and have a look.

@tykeller_ Truth! Many are laser-focused on chasing paper.

Ironically leads to less money and a shittier life, I had to learn that the hard way

[Hunter Murphy @daHunterMurphy]

Note to self:

Forget the money.

Money is a side effect of the VALUE you bring to others.

Biches before niches

Got back into kickboxing again after almost a 2 year hiatus.

Holy shit confidence through the roof again!!

Companies should start applying mandatory sparring sessions I swear.

[Hunter Murphy @daHunterMurphy]

If you have spent at least 20 focused hours devouring books and courses on a skill...

and are not offering any services yet, you're afraid & procrastinating.

Go ahead and create an offer, make it free. Grab referrals. You will learn more in the coming weeks than ever before AND there's a high chance you land yourself a paying client.

I had to learn this the hard way. It's not a shortcut, it's the proper way to go.

@GustasVarnagys Yeah minus the blasphemy of tea over coffee this boosted my productivity significantly.

I would only add getting some sun exposure for at least 10-15 minutes along with working (as per @hubermanlab)

So simple to achieve greatness in the age of distraction and cheap dopamine.

It ain't easy, but fuck is it simple.
