How I Hit $9,000/Month in 12 Months
All 10 FREE Adweek Copywriting Handbook bonuses are GONE. And, only a few days left to save $100 before the price increases (Dec 2 @ 11:59 pm EST).
How did I quit my job (and my wife’s job) in 3 months?
How did I reach my first $5,000/month in 7 months?
How did I reach $9,000/month in just 12 months?
(All without a single follower, zero business experience, and having ZERO previous writing experience)
One Word:
Discontentment
In 2018, I was working 12-hour shifts at my dead-end job.
Commuting over an hour both ways to work.
Monday mornings felt like hell.
I was sick and tired of it.
I wanted out.
I tried so many businesses over the years:
Dropshipping, service arbitrage, sales, web development, bookkeeping, FB flipping, and more.
You name it, I tried it.
I was ALWAYS the Guy Trying Something New, But Never Committing
I was always half in and half out.
Which is why I never succeeded.
It wasn’t because those business models are inherently bad. They work. They just didn’t work for me.
Why?
It was always a “side hustle” to me.
I never treated them like a real business.
That is… until…
I Finally Reached My Breaking Point in December 2018
I decided I was done living life on someone else’s terms.
All for a measly pay check and a two-week vacation (that never seemed to be enough).
I was done being a slave to the 9 to 5 rat race.
So, I picked the next thing on “my list” — a spreadsheet with all my business ideas over the years. I had “writing” ranked about 6th or 7th on the list.
Mainly because I hated writing in school. But I knew people could make money with it online.
I was running out of time though. Turning 25. I could see the next 50 years of my life so clearly if I continued on this path.
I’d never have time for my kids.
I’d always struggle with money
I’d let my wife down, forcing her to work.
So, I snapped.
I decided I was going to make a change.
I decided I was going to live life on my terms.
And I was going to run after my dreams, even if it all fell apart.
In January 2019, I Went All In On Copywriting
I didn’t start another side hustle.
No.
This time?
I treated this like a real business.
And I committed myself to practicing copy every day.
I bought dozens of copywriting books.
And…
I Bought Over $5,000+ in Courses
And what happened when I went all in?
It worked.
I got a $15 blog post client on Fiverr on February 16, 2019.
And then another one a few days later. Then another one.
Then I expanded outside Fiverr.
Raised my rates.
Hit my first $1,000 month.
Specialized into emails.
Quit my job.
Moved to Thailand with my wife.
Hit $5,000 per month in Thailand in month 7.
Landed a $7,000 welcome email series client in month 8.
By Month 12, I Was Officially Making $100,000+ Per Year
No more dead end job.
No more sucking up to a boss.
No more dreading Monday morning commutes.
I finally felt like I had control of my life.
And I wasn’t letting down the people around me.
Guess what?
The Solution?
You have to become discontent.
You need to despise your circumstances.
You need to obliterate “Plan B” from your vocabulary.
If you treat copywriting like a side hustle, you’ll always struggle to make more than a few hundred dollars a month (let alone land your first client).
But…
Treat This Like a Business and You’ll Get Business Results:
Like Chase, who landed two clients in the first 30 days (and quit his job 2 months later).
Like Davide, who landed his first client in 17 days (and got another one the next day).
Like Jite, who landed his first client in 18 days for $600 USD for an email project.
The best part is?
