After that I tweaked my writing style and studied even more then gained 2 more clients over next 3 months. I've been grossing at LEAST 5,000 from various gigs and repeat customers that love my work! So glad I watched this video, I was already studying copywriting beforehand and decided no matter what id be successful in this line of work... Watching this video gave me an extra push in the right direction!! Thank you SO much Alex!! xoxo
@Alex Cattoni How about working remotely for some company or agency? I work as an online English teacher right now. I wanted to start learning copywriting and SEO for a long time now, but I am not so into freelancing. So do you think it's easy to find remote job as a copywriter? Thanks
I'm a startup, I'm reading, watching tutorials and studying ads to see how copywriters write. I'm an English major with a flair for words, a single parent who's jobless. I like the way you guide and teach. I think it takes time to learn before one can start applying for a copywriting job. Thanks Alex for giving me hope ❤️
I love writing, but currently desperate without any idea this sort of career even really existed and trying to save myself from being homeless and starving , so what can you recommend doing if one goes in head first to start earning a living, with little clue on how to approach working as a traveling. homeless, copywriter, LOL ?
I DREAM of doing this job! As an INFJ with the Myers-Briggs personality test, I am VERY empathy-based, and I love being creative. I have a huge passion for writing, I'm working on a couple of novels and I'm also a total book worm. I want to be my own boss and work from home with my computer soooo badly! I think this job would be perfect for me.
Good God, thank you. This is the video I needed thirty years ago. I'm signing up. What I've been searching for--for YEARS--is a job that involves Empathy, creativity, and a passion for writing. Bam.I keep taking English courses and everyone assumes I want to be a teacher...and for all those years, I told them I wanted to convey ideas that move people, not teach. No one--NO ONE in advising has EVER mentioned copywriting or editing. (UGH!) Thank you.
I’ve been a copywriter for 25 years. I always felt it was a delicious, unknown secret. And the only way to make more as a writer, is writing ransom notes.
Finding a niche is my biggest concern. I'm 55 yrs old trying to enter into a whole new realm. I'm trying to persuade my 13 yr old daughter to start her own business, and I want to set an example for her to get started ASAP.
Michael, I am the same age just left a job in the insurance industry to help my elderly mother, and looking to start over. I just stumbled across this since I have a passion for writing fiction. Time to watch some more of her videos!
This was great, I've been looking for "freelance jobs in copywriting" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Fenrianna Subconscious Framework - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? It is a good one off product for discovering how to become an in demand freelance copywriter with no experience minus the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my m8 got great success with it.
Love writing and stumbled across an ad- The Barefoot Writer, and found myself curious about copywriting, therefore, I searched RUclips on what a copywriter does and found your video. Always been a poetic writer, lyrics and wrote a novel- needs another round of edits, and I love creating marketing ideas. Just being creative gives me adrenaline rushes. However, I am new to this and doing some research.
I've started copy writing in my country and I am so, so happy for 21st century and those opportunities. It was lovely to listen to you, you gave me another reason to continue doing this. Kisses from Serbia. :)
You've got my attention! I've done one copywriting course, but I wasn't able to put all the pieces together and get my feet off the ground. You seem very level headed, and I can't wait to learn more from you!
Hi Alex, I've just watched this video and really enjoyed it. I've recently left the legal profession to pursue a career in the copywriting industry and have also decided that I would enjoy a career that is not corporate based at all (your video did some inspiring). My biggest challenge now will be compiling a portfolio and obtaining some experience. Currently doing a course on copywriting but just watched your video on the 5 books that you recommend so will be doing that too.
Hey Alex, this channel is gold. I'm sure it'll blow up soon. Quick question: what should a portfolio look like? Any links to samples you could share with us? Thanks a lot!
This is the second video I see of you. I'm so happy that I've found you. I've just discovered this career and I truly think I've found my dream job. I subscribed and I'll continue to educate myself with your help.
@@AlexCattoni I,m gonna see whether it help or not. Because there are innumerable videos on this topic but no one does a demo on it. If one talks about Paris and go on and on and on and doesn't actually tell what Paris is , how can I be expected to get benefit from these many videos?At least tell us that Paris is the name a place. Show us dome pics and if posdible a video.
@@AlexCattoni The main video there explains the ins and outs of copywriting, but still doesn't show any actual examples to have a visual idea of what we are even suppose to do. What does this job involve? Like make up an example of a very simple project and guide us through the process to see what it's like. That would be very helpful.
What all these videos do is just to make u eager to want to buy their expensive online course. Its just sad that they use this method to make money from people who are really broke.

I just came across something about copywriting in my news feed and decided to Google it to learn more when I came upon these videos. I have to say that now I'm even more intrigued. Your videos are clear and concise. I plan on watching all of your videos until I get "caught up." 😊
Thanks for the tips. I'm just in my second week of being self-employed to focus on my freelance writing after three years of working as a content writer. I feel afraid and excited at the same time. I've just subscribed to your channel and will be watching more on your videos.😊
Alex... This video is what I have been looking for a long time. I'm so glad I found it :) I took a course on copywriting and I knew this is how I would want to make a living. Merry Everything and a Happy Always from Romania.
Helpful video. Just right at the time when I needed it. Also, for me, the biggest problem with starting out on copywriting is analysis paralysis problem where you take on so much information and then try to analyse to come up with a sound decision, but all you end up is in a sea of confusing thoughts.
Hi I started with AWI for copy writing last year and still haven’t gotten anywhere. I did learn there is no formal training for copy writing. You have to find someone already in it to reach you or trust someone like Alex or the this Asian guy I also found on RUclips. I pray and hope between the both of them I will get the training I need to become a copy writer... I wish all of you the best of luck😍
Thanks, Alex, good vid. I have a ton of sales experience, but I've never done copywriting. I think my 15+ years of sales, experience. Would probably help me to become a really excellent copywriter. I guess, is a muscle. Now that I have the sales down packed, is time to learn a new skill. Hopefully, the learning curve is not to long.
We are on the same page. I have 8 years sales experience and I want to develop a new skill, which is copywriting. I have a passion in writing however I don't know where to start and what is the best niche for me.
For me, this is the most comprehensive video on copywriting business I have ever watched. The no 1 challenge is if I did write a piece of content before, can I learn and take me steps towards success in this business? I am a huge fan of working online. So I need first to learn the basics that sell. Thanks,
I am very new to this copywriting world. Zero skill, zero experience, even my English is bad and only rely on knowledge from the internet and RUclips. But I am ready to dive into this world. Of all the videos on RUclips, I will use this channel as my guide. I hope I am lucky and successful, and I will return to give testimony here LOL. Great video, Godbless.
Hi, posse group!! Alex, I have been thinking about freelancing for a WHILE now, I am ready to pursue copywriting. A little about me, I love writing and I am still trying to improve it. I am really interested in copywriting and funny enough, I was planning to take the LSAT this month and start law school but realized I don't want to do so. Anyways here are some of my questions. 1. What are some quality courses that are either free or budget-friendly 2. Where do I start when it comes to self-studying? 3. How do I narrow down my interests to find my niche Anyways!! So wonderful to be part of this group, if anyone has any resources feel free to share with me and help a girl out. Thanks again 🥳
hey Tara! Happy to hear you're thinking about freelancing :) 1. your question on courses - I have a video where I go over the top 5 I would recommend. I'll link at the bottom here. 2. When it comes to self-study - figure out how you learn best. Is it reading? Is it video content? There are literally TONS of amazing books out there and TONS of free video content to get you started. 3. I also have a video on picking your niche that you can find if you search for it. But what it basically comes down to is: make a list of your interests. Decided what you love so much that you can literally write about it everyday, and then just give it a go! You can change your niche anytime you want, so don't feel like you have to get it perfect. Video on course recos: ruclips.net/video/VlBrBKvCoWo/видео.html
I'm in Nigeria and I'm terrified about starting out at copywriting because there are just so many "copywriters" who are extremely good. I really love story telling and writing but I'm sorely afraid
I hear you. But trust me, there is more than enough for everyone. i don't care how many good copywriters are out there... we can always use more of them :)
Great introductory video! Loved the broad-brushstroke tips, and how you gave some clear specifics. After thinking on the material for a bit, I think I've found my hot niche, too. Appreciate your confident "push in the right direction" 👍🏻
Hey Alex, hope you’re well. This has been on my mind a lot. I’m a mom to 5 kids, and think this might be the way to go. I do love writing and learning, so I’ll give it a shot. It will take time, but here’s to the future and your advice. Thanks 🙏 ❤️
Thanks for saying this because everything takes some innate talent coupled with conventional structured education, and hard work and practice. You just can't wish it into existence!
@@AlexCattoni Fair point, but let me offer this as a rebuttal. My electricity isn't free, my data isn't free. I can make about $30/hr from other side hustles. That means that my time isn't free, as every minute I spend on your videos, whether I learn something or not, is $0.50 I missed elsewhere. I was looking to expand and diversify my income, but you send me to other videos that could just redirect me to even more of your videos.
What does it look like when you submit something in a document? is it just a plain word document or is it jazzed up with graphics and different things? (Florida)
Alex Cattoni thank you for the reply that makes me feel a little more at ease as a total novice. Also I would like to complement you on your excellent public speaking, clear audio, and great lighting. Good job on your videos, you really put thought into them.
I ADORE your energy. Not only you are super pretty, but its fun to hear you talk. and I genuinely feel your passion and encouragement about this business. Subscribed! ❤
I've been an awarded copywriter and creative director for 15 yrs or so.( Last 10 yrs I had more fun doing something else than writing.) But I have no ideea how can I became a freelance copywriter. Thought I will find the answer here, cause I still wanna write some headlines for glory. But I'm more confused than ever. I doubt any beginer would be able to start writing with efficiency after watching this. Yet, I'm not here to criticize, so I salute this project and I subscribed. I'm pretty sure u gonna help a lot of ppl by doing this more specific. Empathy and creativity are vague terms. I saw ppl, copywriters, struggling themselves to get to a decent result in communication just because they thought they have to be creative or overcreative. Anyway, I'm old and dumb, but Im still able to answer some begginers questions about conceptual thinking and communication basics. So feel free. BTW Steps nr 5 and 6 are great. Most important without any doubt. Keep on working on it, no matter as stupid or senseless it seems sometimes.
Hey there! Yup, this video is more targeted for those with a general interest :) I think if you browse through my other videos you'll see much more targeted topics and lessons! Thanks for being here. (I highly doubt you are dumb ;)
please help me I'm stuck at where to start copywriting. I need a mentor, I'm now ready to move on in this career. I'm very excited and nerves at the same time ohh god.

Thanks for the tips. I'm just in my second week of being self-employed to focus on my freelance writing after three years of working as a content writer. I feel afraid and excited at the same time.
I've just subscribed to your channel and will be watching more on your videos.😊
Yay! Thanks for being here!
I thank the universe for leading me here. I love your content.
Aw!! Thanks so much.
Just found your channel- new sub. I am going through your videos now to learn as much as I can. Very eager to get moving in this! Thank you
AW thanks so much Sattice!
Alex... This video is what I have been looking for a long time. I'm so glad I found it :) I took a course on copywriting and I knew this is how I would want to make a living. Merry Everything and a Happy Always from Romania.
Yay! Welcome!
getting into discipline is so important for newbies
U make really awesome content keep going never stop
Thanks for the love! :)
Helpful video. Just right at the time when I needed it. Also, for me, the biggest problem with starting out on copywriting is analysis paralysis problem where you take on so much information and then try to analyse to come up with a sound decision, but all you end up is in a sea of confusing thoughts.
Any insights to solve this ?
I’m “eating” all your videos😂😂
Hi I started with AWI for copy writing last year and still haven’t gotten anywhere. I did learn there is no formal training for copy writing. You have to find someone already in it to reach you or trust someone like Alex or the this Asian guy I also found on RUclips. I pray and hope between the both of them I will get the training I need to become a copy writer... I wish all of you the best of luck😍
Dude step number 3 was very nice to hear!
Thanks, Alex, good vid. I have a ton of sales experience, but I've never done copywriting. I think my 15+ years of sales, experience. Would probably help me to become a really excellent copywriter. I guess, is a muscle. Now that I have the sales down packed, is time to learn a new skill. Hopefully, the learning curve is not to long.
Amazinggggg! Yes, that's a great skill!
We are on the same page. I have 8 years sales experience and I want to develop a new skill, which is copywriting. I have a passion in writing however I don't know where to start and what is the best niche for me.
Thank you Alex, very insightful and helpful and Im looking forward to be a copywriter
Awesome!! Glad to help :)
I've been looking for a mentor like you.
For me, this is the most comprehensive video on copywriting business I have ever watched.
The no 1 challenge is if I did write a piece of content before, can I learn and take me steps towards success in this business?
I am a huge fan of working online. So I need first to learn the basics that sell.
Thanks,
Happy to hear that! Thank you!
I am very new to this copywriting world. Zero skill, zero experience, even my English is bad and only rely on knowledge from the internet and RUclips. But I am ready to dive into this world. Of all the videos on RUclips, I will use this channel as my guide. I hope I am lucky and successful, and I will return to give testimony here LOL.
Great video, Godbless.
Best of luck and thanks for watching!!
Hi-Five from Pakistan! You are really helpful :)
Hi, posse group!!
Alex, I have been thinking about freelancing for a WHILE now, I am ready to pursue copywriting. A little about me, I love writing and I am still trying to improve it. I am really interested in copywriting and funny enough, I was planning to take the LSAT this month and start law school but realized I don't want to do so. Anyways here are some of my questions.
1. What are some quality courses that are either free or budget-friendly
2. Where do I start when it comes to self-studying?
3. How do I narrow down my interests to find my niche
Anyways!! So wonderful to be part of this group, if anyone has any resources feel free to share with me and help a girl out.
Thanks again 🥳
hey Tara! Happy to hear you're thinking about freelancing :)
1. your question on courses - I have a video where I go over the top 5 I would recommend. I'll link at the bottom here.
2. When it comes to self-study - figure out how you learn best. Is it reading? Is it video content? There are literally TONS of amazing books out there and TONS of free video content to get you started.
3. I also have a video on picking your niche that you can find if you search for it. But what it basically comes down to is: make a list of your interests. Decided what you love so much that you can literally write about it everyday, and then just give it a go! You can change your niche anytime you want, so don't feel like you have to get it perfect.

I'm in Nigeria and I'm terrified about starting out at copywriting because there are just so many "copywriters" who are extremely good. I really love story telling and writing but I'm sorely afraid
I hear you. But trust me, there is more than enough for everyone. i don't care how many good copywriters are out there... we can always use more of them :)
Study
Get clear on what you offer
Identity who you serve
Write a self sales pitch
Build your own portfolio
Find clients
Thank you ma'am
From Nigeria
I like how you came up with a new word, a mix of submerged and immersed! lol
Great introductory video!
Loved the broad-brushstroke tips, and how you gave some clear specifics.
After thinking on the material for a bit, I think I've found my hot niche, too.
Appreciate your confident "push in the right direction" 👍🏻
Thanks so much, Dacre!
I love your energy
Thanks!!
Hey Alex, hope you’re well. This has been on my mind a lot. I’m a mom to 5 kids, and think this might be the way to go. I do love writing and learning, so I’ll give it a shot. It will take time, but here’s to the future and your advice. Thanks 🙏 ❤️
You go girl!
As a teacher,I know whatever you study - you are the "best student" to be able to give that to your kids!
Thanks for saying this because everything takes some innate talent coupled with conventional structured education, and hard work and practice. You just can't wish it into existence!
Thank you for always upgrading me since 2019
Gain great knowledge by the most beautiful youtuber i ever see..❤️
Video starts at 4:40, you welcome
New African Money lol this always cracks me up.
I am stuck on finding my hot niche... i never tought it would be so hard to understand myself lol
Just start. Finding a path is more about uncovering it because it's there the whole time.
your starting trailer of your personal branding look awesome
Glad i found your channel in my "recommended" list. Powering through your videos. Great content and info. Thank u! Subscribed!
You got a beautiful smile.
"How to become a freelance copywriter"
*spends first five minutes of video using sales copy tactics before actually explaining how*
Watches full video of free content then complains about free content.
@@AlexCattoni hey I wasn't complaining it was quality sales copy in action
@@mikehamm7256 lol thanks :)
@@AlexCattoni Fair point, but let me offer this as a rebuttal. My electricity isn't free, my data isn't free.
I can make about $30/hr from other side hustles. That means that my time isn't free, as every minute I spend on your videos, whether I learn something or not, is $0.50 I missed elsewhere.
I was looking to expand and diversify my income, but you send me to other videos that could just redirect me to even more of your videos.
@@trenvert123 LOL. Ok hunny. I'll send you 0.50. You obviously need it.
keel aside copywriting, tell me how to develop charm like you. It's not just about your looks, I 'm talking about the whole video presentation.
Agreed
So happy I stumbled across your channel!!!! So helpful
YAY! Me too :)
That smile energizes for real!
What does it look like when you submit something in a document? is it just a plain word document or is it jazzed up with graphics and different things? (Florida)
Great question!! Its just a plain ol Google Drive document. I’ll make headlines bigger and add holding, but no graphics.
Alex Cattoni thank you for the reply that makes me feel a little more at ease as a total novice. Also I would like to complement you on your excellent public speaking, clear audio, and great lighting. Good job on your videos, you really put thought into them.
HELLO, LOVE AND RESPECT FROM PAKISTAN
Did you say Malaysia?? Im from Malaysia hope you loved your stay here!
No way!! yes I lived in KL for 3.5 years! LOVED it!
I ADORE your energy. Not only you are super pretty, but its fun to hear you talk. and I genuinely feel your passion and encouragement about this business. Subscribed! ❤
Aw thanks so much rosie!! i'm glad you here :)
Spec ads are great for someone starting out. Easy way to create a portfolio.
I m going to be a legend
I would recommend reading book on David Ogilvy if you have any interest in copywriting.
Cool!
I've been an awarded copywriter and creative director for 15 yrs or so.( Last 10 yrs I had more fun doing something else than writing.) But I have no ideea how can I became a freelance copywriter. Thought I will find the answer here, cause I still wanna write some headlines for glory. But I'm more confused than ever. I doubt any beginer would be able to start writing with efficiency after watching this. Yet, I'm not here to criticize, so I salute this project and I subscribed. I'm pretty sure u gonna help a lot of ppl by doing this more specific. Empathy and creativity are vague terms. I saw ppl, copywriters, struggling themselves to get to a decent result in communication just because they thought they have to be creative or overcreative. Anyway, I'm old and dumb, but Im still able to answer some begginers questions about conceptual thinking and communication basics. So feel free. BTW Steps nr 5 and 6 are great. Most important without any doubt. Keep on working on it, no matter as stupid or senseless it seems sometimes.
Hey there! Yup, this video is more targeted for those with a general interest :) I think if you browse through my other videos you'll see much more targeted topics and lessons! Thanks for being here. (I highly doubt you are dumb ;)
Your video is a testimonial of how goof of a copywriter you have really nailed this skill would be looking forward for your course
