You’re probably here because I submitted an application to be your new copywriter. I also probably did not address every single requirement in your listing and you're wondering, "Who does this jerk think he is? Can he not read? I wanted a portfolio, five references, and a notarized letter pledging loyalty to my business!" Ok, maybe a little too far... Anyway, let’s talk about you and me and how your business will grow with an experienced professional by your side. My name is Randy Hunter. I’m a freelance copywriter. I’m also a licensed architect in the state of Pennsylvania. If your mind works like mine does, you’re now thinking, “What the hell do an architect and a copywriter have in common?” Let me tell you: A whole hell of a lot! As an architect for the last 12 years, I spend every day working directly with clients. I fully appreciate the importance of making my clients happy. I do that by listening to their needs, working as a team, and delivering results that exceed their high expectations. Now, a bunch of stuff happens between listening and delivering results. This is where the fun lives. This is where we plan out the projects. We coordinate with other professionals. We bounce ideas around and get creative. We try this, and then we try that. Then finally, we got it! The train is on the track and we’re chugging at full speed. And BOOM, a final result that is even better than we thought possible. Best of all, we have a happy client that keeps coming back and tells all of their friends how good it was to experience that ride. What I just described is copywriting (and architecture) to “T”. It’s the reason I fell in love with copywriting. I was looking for a business to call my own. One that utilized ALL of my current skills. I'm equal parts analytical and creative. I can spend hours on the tiniest details and then... *snap* .... I'm flying at 39,000 feet taking in the entire landscape. I'm here to make you a lot of money. The nuts and bolts of copy and architecture are all the same, from start to finish. The only difference is that one ends with a building and the other ends with a well-crafted email campaign. So, I'm happy to share some samples with you if that's what your heart desires. But know that they are just that... samples. The product I will build for you will be for YOU, specifically. I'll match your business voice like two peas in a pod. I'll nail down every last detail about your target customer. I'll illustrate to them the value of your product to the point they won’t even realize they’re spending money. They will HAVE to have it. And I'll do it all with teamwork and coordination. There is no 'Randy' in TEAM. Please ask me any questions that come to your mind. If you’ve read this far you must be interested. Just know that I’m not a sleazy salesman. I want to work with you because you need help with copy and you feel like I would be a good fit. If you don’t think any of that, no sweat. I’m not offended. I’ll wave and bid you good luck. No hard feelings. I’m never going to beg for your or anyone's business. That’s lame. Be straight up with me and tell me, “no thanks.” Talk to you soon, Randy Freelance Copy Architect | Actual Architect | Cat Dad
