Find out how a cabinet maker transformed his life, and his income, by becoming a freelance copywriter...
If you want to earn a great living from home, becoming a freelance copywriter is one opportunity you'll want to explore.
Don Mahoney used to be a cabinet maker. It's a terrific craft, but he struggled to make a decent living. By chance, he discovered that copywriters, working from home, were making a great deal more.
Here's a short passage from his own story:
"I used to live in a two-bedroom apartment in a crummy part of town. Now? I own a home on a golf course on Miami Beach. One of my neighbors is Lenny Kravitz. Another is a famous producer.
Every morning when I go onto my porch and look out at the golf course, or across beautiful Biscayne Bay, or hop over to the white sandy beaches, I just pinch myself.
My accountant shakes his head when he does my tax returns.
He cant believe I make so much money, from my home, with no real product in the traditional sense of business. How did he say it? Oh yeah, Over $200,000 in one year from intangibles.
I cant believe it. He has an office, employees... all kinds of headaches, and he probably makes less than me.
Now picture yourself in this life: Youre a freelance copywriter and you live wherever you want to and still earn a six-figure income. North America, South America, Canada... I have colleagues that live in beautiful seaside resort in Europe. They tell me theres nothing like living in an exotic location to get the creative juices flowing. That and getting a five-figure paycheck couriered to them from overseas.
Im telling you all of this, not to brag, but to show you what you can accomplish with desire and being at the right place at the right time."
Today, in addition to making money as a copywriter, Don is Co-Chairman of the American Writers and Artists Insitute. Which copywriting course does he recommend? Michael Masterson's Accelerated Program for Six-Figure Copywriting.
And I'm happy to add my own endorsement. Just read Don's complete letter.
It's a great piece of copywriting in itself, and gives some very solid reasons for investing in Michael Masterson's program.
(And yes, I know a good direct marketing letter when I read one. Between 1980 and 1995 I wrote hundreds of direct mail letters for clients like Diners Club, TV Guide, Franklin Mint, Apple and a host of others. After 15 years I had collected 15 industry awards for my direct mail writing - all of them based on results achieved.)
