There is no perfect tool.]( I saw this meme on Twitter and thought it was absolutely perfect. So many of us get caught up in "meta work" that we don't do the actual work. It's "tool porn". There are so many examples of this: - "I need the perfect shoes and workout outfit if I really want to start exercising a lot." - "I need the perfect desk setup to really start being productive." - "I need the perfect website & tool setup where everything is pushed to all platforms quickly and easily and then I'll start writing and publishing a lot." Nah, brah. That's not true. I'm guilty of this, I will not lie. I found myself doing this with coding. I wanted to learn the skill but then I got caught up in meta tool hell. Which programming language is the BEST to learn, thinking 2,5,10,15 years in the future? What computer setup, with the right terminal, and all the tools will help me code best? I spiraled into this rabbit hole and came out the other side never having learned how to code. What a waste of mental space. With writing and learning to write sales copy... don't let the tools stand in your way. You need just one tool: A pen. You also need paper to write on. And you need an email address and a way to access it for [CopyHour.]( Okay... 4 tools and that's it. I think part of the beauty of [CopyHour and handwriting]( in this modern day and age ("AI Tools are coming!" STFU dude) is that you're limited to a couple tools. And what happens when you limit your tools? You get out of meta-ville. And you start doing the actual thing: writing. That's what moves the needle. Writing more. Not the perfect tool setup. Ask any copywriter or writer worth their salt what's the most valuable activity they can be doing each day. They'll tell you: writing. Don't be a tool, ditch the tools. - Derek ---- I can help you learn to write more words and earn a living as a copywriter. [CopyHour's Sept cohort starts on Monday.]( ✅ 90 Days of email assignments ✅ Community of serious copywriting students (peers) ✅ Sales writing framework ✅ Examples & swipes of successful copy to model ✅ 5 Modules to go deeper into structure & principles. ✅ Cohort group Zoom calls (Membership Level Only) See how it all works: [( Bonuses described below: Bonus #1: The Cartel Training Course: How To Get Consulting Clients With Marketing's Most Underutilized Channel $348 value This is a full training course for beginning freelancers and marketing consultants on getting clients. It includes training materials, swipe files & marketing templates for your freelance copywriting business. To create the training materials for the Cartel, I brought in Ed Stapleton Jr. You're going to love Ed – he's a copywriter & a marketing consultant. Ed is a fantastic person to spearhead this group because he's successful… but in a different way. He's not an uber-guru who gets clients based solely on his relative fame &/or a fancy blog. He doesn't even have a website. Ed's essentially sitting right where you are right now (besides the referrals he gets) when he's searching for new work. And Ed is still able to demand high prices – he doesn't normally take a job for less than $10,000. Some of our early success stories include: - Anne – She booked her first job with a personal trainer. It's a 10 month contract and she gets paid at the beginning of each month. You can listen to our interview with her when you join. - Debra – Her first job was a 6 month, $12,000 contract! - Blake – Blake had literally been studying copywriting for 1 month before he landed his first job… and then 2 weeks later he booked his first 4 figure job. Bonus #2: How To Get Email Clients $200 value - This bonus includes 2, 1 hour long+ zoom interview calls I did with Ian Stanley and Lukas Resheske. - These are two of the best email copywriters in the world, laying out their systems for getting started making a living writing on the internet as an "email copywriter". - Both of these guys sell $2k+ courses on the topic, but you get to learn from them for "free" in this bonus. - You could get the ball rolling on a sweet little 6-fig career (email copywriting) up and started as soon as tonight. Bonus #3: How To Create A Course $200 value - This bonus is a complete Framework for structuring a course. - This is like the sales framework you'll find inside CopyHour but for courses specifically. - You could create an entire course curriculum outline tonight, if you wanted. 😉 Bonus #4: How To Write Webinar Sequences (That Make Sales) $100 value - There's a lot of missed opportunity when it comes to webinars. Business owners don't follow up enough and sales numbers suffer as a result... this bonus will help you figure out exactly what to to write and when to send follow-ups. - You can automate this webinar funnel or just run it live. - I've run this exact funnel with clients in different markets (acting career advice, yoga instruction, lifestyle design) and seen great success. Bonus #5: How To Launch Products To Tiny Email Lists $200 value - This is exact formula that did over 5 figures to a little list of 1700 people. - It's simple and we've deconstructed it into an easy-to-follow steps you can follow to write your launch sequence once and use it over and over again. - Plus, we'll give you some strategies you can use to get people to WANT to partner with you so you can make money even if you don't currently have a list of your own. The total value of the bonuses ($1000+) is worth more than 3x the price of CopyHour alone. The Membership + Course tier is 48% off right now. The Course only is 40% off this weekend.
