Say "Yes" and Figure It Out Later - Michelle's Story

Описание: You know why copywriting is so fun?

Once you understand the foundations, you unlock a superpower you have for the rest of your life. 🦸

Features vs. benefits, clear CTAs, how the audience and medium impact the message: once you understand that, you can wield that superpower on any project with any client.

That's what CCA student and agency owner Michelle realized. And it unlocked a world of opportunity for her.

We love Michelle's motto—"say yes and figure it out later."

You say "yes" not because you know everything.

You say "yes" because you know you have a strong foundation and trust yourself to figure out the remaining 5-10% to get the project done.

As copywriters, we never stop learning.
 
New social platforms, new clients, new audiences: change is the one constant in our careers.

But if we adopt Michelle's mentality, then instead of fearing "new" we can see it for all the opportunities that it presents.

Hear her explain this philosophy and the rest of her journey that led her to running her marketing agency!
