How To Establish Yourself As A Copywriter, Without Previous Credibility, Testimonials or Experience

Hey guys,

For new or aspiring copywriters,






I just read a post below :

(Hope you dont mind me using your post!)

Problem

When starting out, most aspiring copywriters get caught up
in the whole...

"How can I prove Im a good copywriter, when I have no previous clients?"
"No Testimonials"
"Hmmm, What do I charge?"

etc, etc,

(ONE) Solution

Start Selling!!!

Go into your garage, cupboards... your parents garage/cupboards,
your friends garage/cupboards...

and Start Writing ADs and Sales Letters for all your the stuff That YOU DO NOT WANT.

and just because you, your friends or family do not want that stuff,
doesnt mean others dont want it!?

Just remember, "Another Mans Trash, Is Another Mans Treasure".
That phrase can be GOLD to an aspiring AD or Copywriter...

Start writing ADS and Sales Letters for those products
on Gumtree, Craigslist, eBay, Facebook etc, etc...

You can start selling in just minutes from now!

This does 3 things for you;

• 1.) You start making money sooner, rather than later. (So you earn, while you learn).
• 2.) The Experience gives you Feedback, you'll get better at it
  and more importantly you'll get "Real World" Feedback.

(Instead of people trying to tell you what works and what doesnt)
You'll find out for yourself and remember... NEVER be afraid of Failure...

In my mind there is NO Such Thing As Failure... Only Feedback!
Failure = FEEDBACK!

This simple mind switch will allow you to break any mental blocks
you may have, regarding "Self Sabotaging" thoughts ...

and help get yourself up and runnning, faster.

• 3.) Start taking screenshots of your ADS and Sales Letters
  That Get You Great Results!

And there's your proof, recognition and credibilty as
a copywriter, right there in front of you.

As it was all along... you just needed someone to
help you point it out

Dont think you can call yourself a copywriter just by that?

I believe you can...

Because with the screenshots/great results from your own ADS, etc,

You could run a Classified AD in the Forum here, a WSO,
"Need A Quick AD or Sales Letter? - Blah, Blah, Blah..."

Start off with a low price (and tell them why - i.e. "You're an aspiring copy/ad writer),
Demonstrate your proof (from your own screenshots/results AND your AD itself)

Build your portfolio/testimonials... and Start Raising Your Prices along the way

And there you have it!

NEW! MR or MRS Copywriting Genius,

Of course this does all revolve around ACTION!

But as Copywriting legend Rick Duris and the original quoted poster states;
"You need to start somewhere and this could be one way of helping you.
