I've coached over 50 copywriters and designers. My #1 lesson for them: "You don't have to be the "best" at what you do. You just have to do things your own way, longer than others." Outlast them with your uniqueness. That's how you win. 🔥

7 "normal" phrases you need to stop using today (and what you can write instead) 1. "Just checking in..." → skip this, just start your email 2. "Would you mind if..." → Would you + ask question? 3. "No problem if not." → skip this → hit send before 4. "I hear you. But..."

What nobody tells you about going viral on social media: It’s super good. You get the views. You get the bookings. You build brand authority. But it’s super bad too. People are animals. Haters especially. “Now do it again” becomes a goal. Your ego will take a lot of hits.
