Copywriting Foundations using Formulas

The 4 C’s Copywriting Formula is a checklist you can use to edit any piece of copy and make sure it covers all the markers of great copy. But did you know there’s a 5th “C” you should be paying attention to?

This is especially important in this day and age when you’re trying NOT to be like the pushy, unethical, bad-for-business bro marketers.

In the second episode of my podcast series all about copywriting, we learn from Kim Kiel, a direct response strategist and founder of the boutique copywriting agency Kim Kiel Copy.

With 15+ years of writing multi-6-figure campaigns for small businesses and nonprofits, Kim helps brainy brands and experts share their gifts and positive impact with the world. She has a knack for instantly capturing a client’s voice and writing elegantly persuasive copy.

Today, Kim covers the 5 C’s of copywriting, to help you step up your game and confidence when it comes to writing conversion copy.

Pay attention and pick up Kim’s tips on:

• How digital marketing assistants can set their clients up to work with copywriters
• Transitioning out of a 9-5 career into a contractor
• Using copywriting formulas to banish the blinking cursor
• Resources Kim used to learn copywriting
