Re: Suitable cold email?
Thanks, Steve and Wordsmith, that's great advice =) I wasn't sure about posting an actual link to a copy sample as one of the courses I've taken recommended simply firing out as many emails as possible to as many businesses as possible - and then if you got a positive response to see the work, then ...

Re: Website-building tips and SEO
Well that's fair enough, a little of the old quid pro quo! It's taken me longer than expected as some idiot in the next village crashed their car into an internet junction box and wiped out the connection for three villages. But it's sorted now lucky, and I've managed to do as you asked. Please let ...

Website-building tips and SEO
Hello again, I'm sorry for my long absence, this time of year is the busiest time for my day job, so I've had no energy in my time off to give much attention to anything else, unfortunately. Hopefully, the load should drop back to normal levels in the next few weeks; then I'll be able to resuscitate...

Re: Selling yourself as a beginner and building a portfolio
Good news, I have a potential client and have set up a Skype meeting for next week - and my website is almost ready for launch. I told the client that I charge 40 GBP per work hour and per hour of live consultation (with a two-hour minimum fee for the first live call). Most sources I have found agre...

Re: Greetings :3
Why thank you
Good to know there’s someone else with the same taste in humour!

Selling yourself as a beginner and building a portfolio
Hello, I'm interested in becoming a freelance copywriter - mainly in sales/advertising, but I don't mind branching out into other areas (websites, blogs, etc.). But my problem lies in where to begin. It's the old adage "can't get a job without experience, can't get experience without a job"...

I am a fresh-out-of-the-box aspiring copywriter, and I’m very glad to find a forum of like-minded people. It’s a relief that it’s not all a cutthroat competition and ruthless marketplace out there. It’s a great comforting notion that there are people who have forged the path ahead who may be able to...
