- This copywriter hit $10,000 last month
Back in December 2025, my student Kevin S had doubts.
In fact, he almost quit copywriting entirely around Christmas time.
You see, Kevin's in the Six-Figure Copy Academy.
And a few months ago he was stuck at less than $1,000/month:
In the trenches
Grinding on Upwork
Sending pitch after pitch
Getting paid pennies for work that was getting rejected
He was writing 12 ad scripts a day for one client who told him his work was "terrible" and that he'd “just do it himself.”
He hit a wall. Told me he was nearly ready to throw in the towel.
I told him his copy was solid. He was getting better every single day. Just keep going.
“It's okay to eat dirt for a season. This is part of it.”
So he fired that first client. And went back to outreaching.
A few weeks later, he landed a $2,000/month retainer.
Then another client. Then another.
2 weeks ago, he posted this in the Academy:
"Closed out May with my first $10k month!!!”
5 months before that…
He was writing into the void, barely scraping by. In fact, he almost quit entirely.
Within 5 months, he 10Xd his income from $1,000/month to $10,000/month.
Now, Keivn can finally call himself a six-figure copywriter.
Here's what Kevin did differently:
He kept improving his copywriting skills.
He got regular feedback on his copy.
He stopped chasing $100 gigs and started targeting clients with real budgets.
He sent personalized Looms instead of copy-paste proposals.
He picked up when I told him to walk away from the bad client, even though it felt terrifying.
He just kept going when most people would've quit.
That's the whole playbook of anyone who’s succeeded with copywriting.
If you follow a system that works. And don’t give up on it…
You’ll eventually find yourself living the lifestyle of a successful copywriter:
Making six figures per year
Setting your own hours
Waking up whenever you want
Not having to ask for time off work
Being able to travel whenever and wherever you like
Working on the projects you love
Saying no to the projects you don’t love
And finally calling the shots in your life
In a few weeks, Kevin’s celebrating by taking his wife on a vacation to the UK. His first real vacation in years. They’re taking a few weeks to visit family, travel, and relax.
He said he might even stay a bit longer if they want. And he gets to make that choice. Where he lives. Where he travels. When he works. How he works. How long he takes a vacation.
All because he committed to winning with copywriting.
If you want the same system Kevin used, that's exactly what I teach inside Six-Figure Copy Academy.
I can’t promise you’ll go hit $10k/month within a few months like Kevin…
