“You want to fly across the country to see ME?”
March 10, 2008
Attention Freelance Copywriters…
This is a message I never thought I’d write (in a MILLION years).
Ever since I released my guide about how to become a six-figure copywriter, I’ve gotten a lot of great feedback about it.
Feedback about how my journey has helped other copywriters take a step or two forward on their journey to build a copywriting business.
And as I’ve begun talking with some of my readers on the phone, I’ve gotten requests for more help.
Requests from beginning copywriters who want to jump start their business.
And requests from seasoned copywriters who can’t seem to attract a steady supply of new clients.
Even a request from a copywriter to fly across the country, and pay me for a day of my time to help him grow his business.
That was a first for me. And it caught me a little bit by surprise.
After all, I’m not really one for the spotlight.
But after talking with a few of my mentors, I’ve realized that it is pretty irresponsible of me NOT to try to reach out and help the people who want (and can benefit from) my help to build a copywriting business.
So that’s what I’m going to do. In the end, I’m a teacher. That’s just what I do.
If me standing up and doing my best to help copywriters puts me in the spotlight. Well then, so be it. I’m still gonna be the same person.
So here’s what this is about.
It’s about HOW I’m going to help copywriters build their business.
I really hate the word “coaching,” because the current examples of that are pretty weak in my view.
Many of the “coaching” programs out there are more like “let me take your money and spend time telling you how great I am.”
I’ve been in some of those programs… and they stink. That’s putting it nicely.
And the reason they stink is because you feel like you are a number. And you realize that ultimately, the person you’re paying doesn’t REALLY care about your success. People come, people go. And sometimes, you end up leaving more confused than when you started.
I guess you could call what I’m proposing “UN-coaching.” Perhaps mentoring would be better.
The point is to get YOU on track. On YOUR track. Not to have you learn my “system for getting clients.”
That might work for me. It might not work for you.
This is email only mentoring. You’ll get your own password protected place online for us to communicate. Everything will be archived so you can go back and look anytime you want.
The fee is $400 per month. You pay month-to-month. No commitment.
That means if we work together and help you get ONE client who pays you $4,000, you will have broken even on 10 months of the fee.
I’m not promising to deliver clients to you on a silver platter. I am promising that I will help you learn the very same skills and strategies I use to do that for myself.
And now a few warnings. A short list of things that no one else ever mentioned when I signed up for their mentoring/coaching program.
1. Please don’t sign-up if $400 is a lot of money for you right now. I’ve done that. And I’ve suffered because of the additional pressure that put on me to “work things out.” It’s not worth it. Just wait a bit until $400 won’t create too much of a cash flow problem.
2. Please don’t sign-up if you aren’t going to take action quickly. That will frustrate both of us. You know if that’s you.
3. Please don’t sign-up if you want someone to hold your hand for the next 2 years. I won’t accept your money that long. And if I haven’t given you enough in a few months to truly transform your business, then something is wrong. This isn’t a club, and you won’t get any added bonus for saying you’re in Jason Leister’s mentoring program. The person would probably say “Jason WHO?”
If you are interested, I’m ready to start. Despite what you might think, there is TONS of opportunity out there for you.
That’s not really the challenge. The challenge is more figuring out WHICH opportunities are the RIGHT ones for you.
If you are interested, visit my mentoring page to get all of the information you need.
I’m really offering a combination of 4 things in this program: advice about WHAT to do, accountability to help get those things DONE, inspiration so you never forget what you are REALLY capable of and action steps which is the KEY to everything.
