Thanks to Dundurn Press for a copy of this book for review.
If you are a good writer, maybe not ready to write a book yet, but looking for a way to make extra money or a side hustle then this book iis for you. Suzanne will take you through all the steps needed to help set up your own Copywriting business. You’ll learn everything from how & what types of writing you can provide, how to set up the business, where to get clients, the financial aspects of the business and how to connect with other copywriters for support and ideas. I really enjoyed the last part of the book, where she provides actual testimonials from people who run their own copywriting business today. This books is amazing at providing general ideas on what to do, but it’s not a step by step guide, so it’s meant for people who are go getters and don’t need a lot of hand holding. You can use many of the same ideas to help set up other service based ideas like a virtual assistance business.
