(you'll get a BLACK FRIDAY discount if you join NOW...)
This course is your gateway into copywriting.
​
And unlike fucking SCHOOL, it's not just theory. We're not about to sit here and learn how to write and then send you home.
​
Sure, you'll learn how to write an amazing ad that
will make people who HATE marmite wanna buy marmite.
And you'll discover the art of screenwriting, from a copywriter who's single-handedly written the entire TV script for Spotify's Wrapped Event in London.
​
But you'll also walk away with:
​
-
a finished and full portfolio, so you can start landing gigs
​
-
the know-how of WHERE to look to actually find THOSE gigs
​
-
a cute certificate, to show that you're 'certified to write'
​
And the best part about it?
It's not made by a copywriter
with 30+ years of experience
There's a million copywriting courses out there by hotshots who have been in the industry since the Mosasaurus roamed
(uhm, well... swam?) the earth.
put that thing on a leash!
Now, we know
what you're thinking...
'"BUT isn't it good to learn from people who have been doing this for 20+ years and have sooooo much experience?"
​
Yes, BUT:
​
They're so removed from your reality.
So far away from where you are in your career right now.
Hell, they're like 20 years older than you.
You cannot see yourself in THEIR shoes.
​
Which is why this copywriting course is created by junior copywriters.
All your course instructors are young people, just like you.
Some are STILL at uni and managed to land
copywriting roles at leading marketing agencies.
​
Some switched careers at 25 and within a year, landed copywriting awards.
​
Others have written for giants like SKY, Virgin, and Spotify.
​
Now that's doable; if they did it, you can too.​
​
And you'll learn how in this course.​
