Zero to $6K

Write Converting Copy, Get High-Paying Clients & 

Kickstart Your Dream Writer’s Life in 8 Weeks

 

 

After six rounds… 50+ weeks of in-session coaching… and over 200 hours…

Coaching 36 students, many in a similar position to yourself.

We’ve now refined this proven system SIX TIMES.

(Sorry Grey Goose, you ain’t got nothing on us : )

Remember, in Round 1 — we took one writer from his parent’s basement…

To a royalty-padded seat in the #1 financial direct response agency in the world.

And that was round one!

You’ve seen what’s gone down since then…

So it’s probably no surprise to hear me say:

This is bar-none the #1 online program for freelance copywriters looking to break into the direct response world.  

The first video program to show you over-the-shoulder… week-by-week…

How to master the 2 key pillars of

successful freelance copywriting

Without both, you are dead in the water.

Pillar 1: The art of writing copy

Pillar 2: The science of freelance business

Lucky for you, we cover both pillars in extensive detail.

The beauty of Zero to $6K — it teaches you both at the same time.

And listen, we know there’s other course out there, so here’s something else to consider:

The game changes fast. What worked 5 years ago… even 2 years ago… does NOT necessarily work today.

As compliance on Facebook and other ad networks tightens…

And as competition for attention increases…

The game evolves, and the copy adjusts.

This is what’s working NOW, at the highest levels of the game.

This is the most advanced, accelerated program for 

the modern world of direct response 

From two writers who are in the trenches: writing long-form copy every damn day for the top clients in the business.

Which means we’ll show you what’s actually working for US…

…and for our students — the next generation of up-and-coming control crushers.

* It makes no difference if you’ve only noodled around in Google Docs writing fake samples…

* If you’ve just read your second direct response book and you’d like to apply what you learned…

* Or if you’ve worked with a few clients, but don’t know how to land retainers & raise your rates.

Perhaps, you’re just frozen in a state of sheer overwhelm, and you don’t know where to start. 

That’s fine too, because this proven blueprint just plain works at every level…

(Even all the way up to us coaches – it’s something I’ll use until the day I die. Austin too.)

Whether you’ve dabbled a few years ago and got busy or quit copy… or if you’re chomping at the bit to land your first client…

Zero to $6K will work for you.

And if you’re wondering what kind of results you can expect, consider this….

You already met students who added hundreds, even thousands of dollars to their bank account within a week or two of following this system…

That’s just the start.

Because by the end of the first week…

You’ll feel butterflies in your stomach. Not stemming from fear, but from a profound sense of “yes I can”…

Knowing you’re walking a path tread by others before you…

Many students write to us saying it feels like they’ve been struck by lightning.

Woken up and straightened out — now they can simply tackle the task at hand…

And do the thing that moves them to the next step, and then next.

Until these micro-steps… each easy on their own…

COMPOUNDS into something real & powerful. 

You’ll literally be building assets you can use to make money now… and for a lifetime.

Like tiny twigs being gathered, then tossed on a small flame…

The steps laid out in this blueprint will start small, then grow into tangible freelance skills to get you up and running within weeks.

Let me tell you something:

It feels insanely good to captain your own ship. To finally call the shots….

 

Does this sound like your tribe? 

 

I can’t answer that for you.

What I can do, is show you the simple 8-week system we’ve put together for you.

It’s super easy to follow: just one video lesson each week.

(About 20 to 40 minutes each.)

While every other writer scours Amazon for the next “silver bullet” copywriting book…

… you’ll be one of the smart few on a bullet-train to real freelance success.

So let’s break down exactly what you 

get week-by-week…

(Plus the special bundle of free gifts & word-for-

word templates for early-bird members)

The moment you log in, you’ll see a powerful 9-page PDF we’ve NEVER release before.

(Not even to our one-on-one students)

That’s over 2,000 words of fill-in-the-blank templates you can start using to attract, filter and close paid clients.

This is broken out into 4 “Phases”, as follows:

1. Completely Cold Client Template

2. Semi-Cold Client Template 

3. How to Get a Client on the Phone

4. 27-Step Phone Sales Script to Close a Client on the Spot

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg, because this curriculum is loaded with over 5 hours of actionable, step-by-step video guidance.

(If that sounds like a lot – don’t fret – it’s only ~5 minutes per day.)
