There’s never been a better time… August 26, 2024 [The Writer’ s Life]( "The secret of getting ahead is getting started." — Mark Twain Hi {NAME}, The past few years were A LOT for many people, with so much uncertainty … But there were lots of bright spots too! Writer success stories from our members came in fast and furious (keep 'em coming! 😉). Spend on digital marketing continued to grow by double digits (and is projected to keep growing at that pace). And we uncovered NEW ways for copywriters to make great money, by helping businesses not only survive — but THRIVE during challenging times. (Way to flex that writer superpower!)
