Hello Copywriting experts & Gurus

I am around here for last 6 months plus,but with out any productive results.I am been laid off from my day job.This pusses me to beg for some help with lot of 6 and 6plus figure earning people here.I mean some support to learn copy writing,IM etc., but I got refused by few top notch gurus straight on face as they can only deal with clients who can pay them high as they are so highly skilled.

Now I would need a help which is going to feed me and my family for forth coming days.I want to learn IM & Copy writing ,so please some one do a favor for me by getting access to your coaching resources for which I can try to pay some money which is currently affordable by me.

Regards
Veerapandian

      Before you take ANYBODY'S offer for help, you want to do your due
      diligence and research the person to make sure that they are actually
      walking the walk and not just full of hot air.

      A lot of people talk a good game but have NOTHING to back it up.

      Be careful. There are a lot of unscrupulous people out there.

    I'm not being facetious here. It will help you,
    Ken does make a good point. English is obviously not your first language
    and if you're going to write for the English speaking market, you do have
    to master that first.

    Thanks for the common sense Ken.

    I will repeat what the folks said: Your english isn't good enough for copywriting (neither is mine ). Try something different like Ed Dale's "30 day challenge". It's free and is about internet marketing

      You're getting some good replies and good suggestions, and all you do in response is complain. That's not going to get you very far.

      If you're not getting what you want, perhaps you're not communicating very well. That's the first thing a successful writer better be able to do, is communicate.

            Copy-writing? Do you have any idea as to what that entails? I think before you even start offering any writing service you have to make sure you KNOW the trade. At first glance and without even reading too far into your post I was able to note that English is your second language. And copy writing is well, just THAT, writing. I do not want to sound too harsh but the truth is, with so many people offering the same service you HAVE to be good and write well. It is clear that you still do not have a full grasp on the proper usage of grammar, punctuation and sentence structure.

            I understand you are trying to make ends meet in this dire economy, but so is everyone else. That is the reason why competition is fierce and only the very best survive. If you really want to be a writer you have to PRACTICE, PRACTICE and PRACTICE some more. You certainly can not sell something as "native" or as "Quality" writing, if it has some simple grammatical mistakes like the ones in your post.

            I commend you for WANTING to do something and wanting to learn. But I suggest you start with other things like Affiliate or Referral Programs while you perfect your writing skills.

            I agree Steven. Not everyone that promises to deliver Gold, DOES. Unscrupulous? REALLY? I never noticed? There are definitely LOTS of dishonest people online who take advantage of those wanting to succeed, and hide behind the anonymity web marketing can offer. SAD, but so true!!!:rolleyes:

            You are not being facetious. That was exactly my thought after reading the post. I think that HONEST (even if hard to swallow) comments can teach us all a few things about doing business online!!!

              Chennai,
              No one here is insulting you--they are giving you good advice.

              Let's look at it this way: pretend that knowing English is like riding a bicycle.

              Right now you know just enough about riding your bicycle that you only have to put your foot down on the ground to keep from falling about once every minute. So maybe you can ride about 5 miles per hour, with occasional stops.

              With that level of skill...would you even think about trying to ride in the Tour de France?

              Because that's what copywriting is, my friend.

              And as for your comment about promotional replies...well, heck, what did you expect when you asked for access to people's coaching resources? When you ask people to provide you with something, they have every right to promote themselves in response. You did ask.

              Copywriting is the highly advanced use of English by experts. You are a beginning English speaker--it shows in your posts. Even if a mentor would teach you, you would be wasting your money. Your money is better spent on English lessons.

              Please don't feel bad--English is THE hardest language to learn in the world, I think. Even Hebrew isn't as hard (and I'm learning that right now.)

              Focus on reading, writing, speaking, and listening to English. Then later, you can learn how to master it for copywriting.

              As for your comment about lots of promotional replies...you DID ask for access to people's coaching resources, so I'd expect people to promote themselves. *shrug*

    chennai2020 No one was being self promotional. They were simply stating you need to work on YOUR english first before looking to market to english speaking countries.
