Letâs see what he has to say: â â Dear Chase, I found this mysterious object in my Grandmotherâs closet recently. It struck me because itâs this big purple ball that looks like this emoji ð® Still trying to figure out what it does. Anyway, I looked into it last night, and it gave me a breakdown for what the career of being a copywriter will look like for about 90% of people who find success with it. Let me break this down for you, because it might help our audience understand what their next decade will look like. Here goes: Letâs skip all the steps where someone learns about copywriting, goes back in forth in their mind if they actually wanna do it, and then actually decides to start. Month 1, youâre doing outreach. You get no responses. Month 1.5, you start getting responses and it motivates you, so you double down on volume. Month 2, you land a client. You have no idea what youâre doing and you feel like an imposter. Month 3, youâve got the hang of it and you feel like you can deliver some results. Youâve already gotten a few easy wins with your first client. The outreach machine turns back on again. By month 6, you have 3-5 clients, youâre feeling yourself. Youâre probably making between $8-12k a month and you start to think youâre better than everyone else. Thatâs normal. Month 8, your income probably stagnates a little bit and you start meeting people in your network who are making WAY more money than you. You feel like a loser. You no longer think youâre better than anyone else. Month 12, youâre at $15-20k a month. You now feel comfortable enough that you can buy whatever you want, you can be more generous, and you really feel like you can work with anyone. Youâre no longer intimidated by potential clients. Youâre a decent marketer now. Month 16, you have enough experience at this point where you feel like you can probably run your clientsâ marketing better than they can. It becomes annoying taking orders from other people. Even though youâre making insane money, youâre starting to not enjoy the job as much anymore. Between months 18 and 24, this is where youâre at a crossroads. At this point, youâve probably worked with between 15-30 different companies. Some were long-term clients, some were quick gigs. But youâve learned so much that your job is to now figure out what youâre going to do next, so you can actually be your own boss. I see copywriters go a few different ways at this stage. They start an agency, they start a brand, or they sell an info product. At first, it feels like a big risk, because you havenât proven to yourself that money is abundant and that you have a ton of skills that are applicable to many types of businesses. You think that if you get rid of all of your clients, youâll be back at zero and be terrified of running out of money. Usually, if it took you a year to get to $25k a month as a copywriter, you think itâll take you just as long to do the same with your next business. Not true. You usually get there in half the time, if not sooner. In fact, in another 18 months, you can build this next business to $100k a month. And then itâs either that business, or one after that, thatâll make this little copywriter a millionaire. Iâve seen this happen a handful of times, actually. Beginners start with zero expectations, get their freelancing business to 6 figures a year, and then do something right after that gives them a shot at millionaire status. Itâs wild how that works. My hypothesis is that copywriting is such an important skill, that anyone who learns it and does it every day for a year or two will teach you more than any college degree ever could. Itâs one of the greatest decisions Iâve ever made, and I imagine itâll be the greatest decision that your audience could ever make, Chase. The magic purple ball is never wrong. It also told me that you have 7 more children coming your way in the next decade. Unless you wanna upsize your house a couple more times, Iâd recommend that you chill on that⦠Yours truly, Alex.
