📢 Skip the Search | Find Your Dream Copywriter in 5 Seconds with my Foolproof 2-step Method! Tired of cycling through shifty copywriters when your brand deserves better? It’s not just you; Upwork is filled with cookie-cutter clutter and AI Spam. After boosting profits for ̶3̶4 35 businesses, I was stunned to hear how many struggled with… ❌ ChatGPT proposals flooding every inbox ❌ SEO “experts” who crack after one interview ❌ Scammers cashing out without doing any work You know that finding good help is possible, and they did too: ✅ "Ian is an excellent writer who is detail-oriented AND deadline driven. I hope to work with him again soon!" - Sara Teller Industries, LLC ✅ "It was a pleasure working with Ian as he is one of the MOST professional freelancers I have ever been working with. If you want serious cooperation and high-quality, then Ian is the #1 person to go to!" - Jaroslav Jakl ✅ "Ian transformed my bland email marketing emails into emails that were SO much better than I had hoped for. His creative and unique approach to ideas for this campaign was outstanding." - Adam Goarley Here’s the two-step method that will get you past the wall of mediocrity right now! ❗Step One → The “5-Second” Rule❗ This is gonna sound crazy, but you don’t need 5 minutes to find a great copywriter. You don’t even need one. The next time you’re looking at proposals, simply apply this rule: “each one gets 5 seconds.” What happens after that is up to you. If a copywriter can’t grab your attention in 5 seconds, they can’t grab your customers’ either. Which leads me to… ❗Step Two → The “Standout” Rule ❗ Ever notice how 99% of Upwork profiles look the same? It’s not a coincidence. The sad truth is that most copywriters are more “copy” than “writer”. And if they can’t write original material for themselves, how can they do it for you? Luckily, there’s an easy way to weed out the fakes. Just ask this question about every profile you read: “Have I seen this already, or does it stand out?” And watch as you glide over the garbage to the 1% of unique, original, and creative freelancers. That’s why I made my profile unlike anything else on Upwork. Because I know that one-in-a-million clients deserve one-in-a-million freelancers. 🌟 The kind that hook you instantly 🌟 Hold your attention relentlessly 🌟 And stand out like a dynamite volcano Congratulations! You now have a foolproof formula to easily and reliably find the perfect freelancer. —————————— Still reading? Well… Perhaps you already found what you’re looking for. ✅ Someone that writes irresistible headlines ✅ Creates unforgettable offers ✅ Who sees what everyone else is doing and finds a better way Because you want the best, not the followers. But before we start, let’s get on the same page about one thing. I’ll only work with you if I’m 110% sure we’ll both walk away satisfied and successful. That’s why I don’t do... ❌ Content Mills ❌ Anything X-Rated ❌ AI "Writing" But if you’re looking for... ✅ Email/SMS Marketing + Newsletters (Klaviyo, HubSpot, ActiveCampaign, MailChimp, Beehivv) ✅ Web/Social Media Copy (Wordpress, Squarespace, Shopify, Facebook, Instagram) ✅ VSL/TSL/Ghostwriting Then let me know exactly what your business needs, and you'll get I.T.
