Read MoreOne of the most frequent comments I hear when meeting with new prospective copywriting clients is that they find it nearly impossible to write their own "About Me" or bio. I get it - it can be super awkward to talk about yourself. It feels like bragging in the third person, which seems even weirder.

"How hard can it be to do Pinterest for my business?" I swear to holy Moses, if I had a dollar for every time I heard these seriously misinformed ideas on social media marketing, I'd be able to at least buy myself a really nice pair of shoes.
NEWS FLASH: social media marketing requires a LOT more work and strategy than just "playing around on Instagram all day." Five years ago, you could get away with quality posts on your Facebook and Instagram and not really worry about sales funnels and strategy, but NOT ANYMORE, my friends.

"Everyone HATES getting emails, so people are just gonna delete whatever I send."
Friends, we need to talk about email marketing.
