Note from Kristen: Ordinarily I don’t post promotional stuff like this, but I completely believe in this Summit and I think it’s a worthwhile event. With people like Mike Stelzner, Peter Bowerman, and Brian Clark — guys who are not only pros but just amazing people who have personally helped me out and been just total class acts the whole time I’ve known them — on the docket and behind the whole thing, I know it’s going to be great. I hope you’ll seriously consider checking it out. -kk
Freelance Copywriters to Learn Marketing From the Pros at Upcoming Summit
(www.inkthinkerblog.com) — It’s like getting golf lessons from Tiger Woods. Or investing advice from Warren Buffett. Or acting tips from Robert DeNiro. In other words, a chance to learn from the best.
You’ll get that kind of once-in-a-lifetime chance at Copywriting Success Summit 2008. Running from October 7 through October 29, 2008, the Summit lets you participate in online seminars with the top names in copywriting. The sessions will give attendees everything they need to boost their copywriting business.
“The entire Summit is about how to better sell and market yourself as a freelance copywriter,” explains Michael Stelzner, author of Writing White Papers and organizer of the event. “The freelancers who will attend already know how to write, but they don’t always know how to market themselves effectively. This summit will teach them how to do that well.”
Legendary Instructors
The list of “professors” teaching at the Summit reads like a Copywriters’ Hall of Fame. Attendees will listen to and interact with Stelzner, Bob Bly, Peter Bowerman, Steve Slaunwhite, Brian Clark, Casey Hibbard and Jon McCulloch. In a dozen sessions, the star copywriters will present original content that hasn’t been offered before.
You might be wondering if the Summit is right for you. It’s designed for freelance copywriters who have been writing for a few years and want to raise their business—and income—to a higher level; generalists looking to carve out a lucrative niche; and new copywriters trying to establish a solid foundation for their business.
Make More Money
“We’re seeking copywriters who, frankly, want to make more money,” adds Stelzner. “Most of the copywriting seminars out there have been ‘get-rich-quick’ type of events. The summit is for ‘no-hype’ copywriters who want to write for businesses that target other businesses. A lot of copywriters don’t realize that this world of copywriting even exists, but it’s where the money is.”
The Summit will teach you how to:
- Effortlessly attract great clients
- Create strategies to beat the competition
- Use the closely guarded secrets of top experts
- Establish pricing strategies to boost your income
- Choose the right niche and thrive in it
- Leverage the latest Web 2.0 strategies for success
You can attend the sessions via your home or office computer. To attend, participants log in at a special website and join hundreds of other copywriters to watch and listen to the sessions. If you have a question during a session, simply dial an 800 number to ask the instructor your question live.
If you miss a session, you can download and watch the presentation later. The Summit also provides an exclusive community forum where you can interact with other copywriters attending the event.

“In this difficult economy, this is a chance for you to invest in the future of your business by learning how the pros have done it,” says Stelzner, who spent an entire year organizing the Summit and may make it an annual event. “You’ll walk away with actionable, step-by-step instruction on how to improve your business.”
The top copywriters in the world all started somewhere, maybe in the same place you are today. Who knows? After attending Copywriting Success Summit 2008, you may soon be teaching copywriters your tricks of the trade.
