This is my entry to win a ticket to the 2009 Copywriting Success Summit and a personal bit of help from Peter Bowerman. This opportunity comes at a pivotal point in my career, and I know it will be a chance at giving me that tiny bit more of self-confidence I need to market myself as I should.
I studied writing for four years - two of them working with copywriting methods - and have been working as a full-time copywriter for a little over a year. I read Peter Bowerman's book about 4 years ago, and it kept me in the running and inspired me not to give up. I've also read books by Bob Bly, Michael Stelzner, Steven Slaunwhite, and ebooks by Pete Savage - all excellent writers and businessmen. I attended Mike's White Paper Success Summit early this year as well, and thought it one of the best ever. My goal is to continue my work with white papers, especially in "green businesses."
I have written newsletters for IT small businesses, subscription renewals for magazines, direct mail pieces, print ads and training manuals for local businesses, book and short story editing for an international author, articles for business newspapers, and web copy and set-up for an online web business.
For the last four months I have been working a great deal with what I thought would be an on-going position writing and performing as a virtual assistant for a start-up company; unfortunately, I did not keep up my other copywriting business leads and now need to jump back into the marketplace. This Success Summit and "meeting" all the inspiring presenters would be a tremendous boost to me and my business at this time.
Thank you for considering me and for all the wonderful work you do for us.
