Best way to find a copywriting mentor?
As some may know, I lost my business a few months ago and I am on the journey to get something up and running. To be honest things are going slow but I feel like I am getting somewhere and have learnt a lot in the last couple of months.
I am at the phase now where I have a lot of copywriting to do for the various ideas I have. I am not a copywriter, but I have a very deep understanding of sales and have written very successful copy in the past.
If I could afford it I would love to be able to get someone to write the copy for me but no one in my price range is going to deliver the level of copy that I expect.
As the next best thing I have had the idea that I will write the copy myself. I have good understanding of the sales process; delivering benefits, backing up claims with proof and making an irresistable offer. My main problem is that my writing is a little clunky, and does not flow too well.
In the past I worked with a seasoned copywriter and I would give my copy to him and he would just touch it up a little and maybe cut certain bits out or tell me to re-write something etc.. The result of this was some of the best copy (in my opinion) I have ever used.
Unfortunately due to health problems and retirement this copywriter is unavailable and I am unsure how to find someone else. Previously I held the copywriter on retainer but now I am really counting my pennies so I would think maybe an hourly rate would work better.
It can be very difficult to find good copywriters on the freelance sites who have a true understanding of sales copy. Does anyone have any suggestion as to how I should go about trying to find this sort of copywriting assistance?
Many thanks in advance.
