Words That Sell. Copy That Converts. Profits That Scale. If your sales funnel, email campaign, or landing page isn’t making you money, it’s costing you money. You don’t need more traffic. You need better conversions. That’s where I come in. For 25+ years, I’ve helped businesses turn words into sales. Not just “nice-sounding” words—but conversion-driven messaging rooted in psychology, persuasion, and buyer behavior. My copy has generated millions in sales across industries as diverse as SaaS, eCommerce, high-ticket coaching, B2B software, real estate, and even dog training and dating advice. 🚀 Where I’m Most Useful to Your Company: ✅ Sales Letters (Long-form, Short-form, Direct Response) ✅ Landing Pages that Double (or Triple) Conversion Rates ✅ Email Autoresponder Sequences (Cold, Nurture, Re-Engagement) ✅ Sales Funnels that Move Prospects from Awareness to Purchase ✅ Lead Generation & Nurture – Get More Qualified Leads, Not Just Clicks ✅ VSLs, Explainer Videos & YouTube Ads – Video Copy that Sells ✅ Case Studies & Authority-Boosting Content ✅ AI-Powered Chatbot & Sales Copy Creation 💡 What Makes Me Different? 1️⃣ Direct-Response Focused – Every word I write is designed to sell.

I’ve created an entire course teaching marketers how to leverage ChatGPT to explode sales, boost productivity, and streamline content creation. I can help you: ✅ Automate Your Content & Sales Messaging (without losing authenticity) ✅ Train ChatGPT for Your Business (so it speaks in your brand’s voice) ✅ Turn AI into a Sales Asset (from ad copy to entire funnels) 💡 Why does this matter? Because businesses that integrate AI properly are scaling faster, lowering costs, and winning bigger.

In the past three years, I've built 200+ landing pages and funnels, including all the copy, and I helped my clients get to over $700K in tracked revenue. The lead-generation landing pages for my own coaching business consistently hit between 40%-55% conversion rates, including one hitting an astonishing 86%. I work in GHL, Clickfunnels, Unbounce, Kajabi, Webflow, Hubspot & Framer. 🏆 Every client I've ever worked with gave me a 5-star review, and they didn't leave them just to be nice. Seasoned marketers with 10+ years in the game call me one of the best landing page/funnel builders and copywriters they've hired. Here’s some of them: ✅ "I've been in sales and marketing for 10 years now and Jakub is hands down one of the best copywriters, funnel builders, and funnel hackers I have met in that time! I can’t recommend him enough!" – Drake N. ✅ "Jakub is a legend. Not only is he incredibly skilled at building unique, eye-popping landing pages—he is also a joy to work with." – Matt D. ✅ "Jakub is hands down one of the best digital marketing professionals I've encountered in my 10y marketing career (and going!). Outstanding job! 👏👏" – Ori K. 🏆 A Few Notable Case Studies Of My Clients: ✅ An online coach running a Skool community already had a funnel, but he was stuck at $11,000 a month and wanted to scale. So I built him a new 5-step funnel inside GHL, then we A/B tested the offer angles and the length of the landing pages until the conversions climbed. I helped him get to $25,000/mo, which has added up to over $350,000 in the last three years. ✅ One of my clients, a real estate agent in Dubai, was running Meta ads to a call-booking landing page that converted at just 3%, and the leads coming through were low quality. I rebuilt the page for him, and we climbed from 3% to 9% while the lead quality went up too. ✅ Another client who’s also an online coach has been making $3,510/mo selling his low ticket make-money online offer. So I came in, made 3 completely different versions of his landing page, and after 1 month of A/B testing we ended up getting to $7,565, doubling his MRR. ✅ For my own coaching business, I build lead-gen pages that capture emails. Out of 856 YouTube subscribers I turned 472 into emails on my list. My pages convert at over 55%, with one climbing past 86%. ✅ I've also built 100+ websites for local service business owners, and all of the clients have been nothing but satisfied. You can have a look at my reviews below. ❓ "These results sound great, but how do I know your landing page/funnel will actually convert for me?" That's a fair question, and it's exactly the one you should be asking. ⚠️ So let me be straight with you. Anyone who guarantees you a result is lying. Nobody can promise you a number, because no one controls your market, your traffic, or how your audience behaves on a given day. So if a freelancer swears your page will convert at some exact rate, run. ✅ Here's what I can guarantee instead: the approach. And the right approach is what stacks the odds heavily in your favor. Before I build anything, I research what's already converting in your niche. Then I reverse engineer it. I pull apart the copy, the funnel structure, the exact way the winners talk to their audience, the offers they lead with, the order they reveal things in. I find the patterns that are already pulling in leads and sales, and then I rebuild your landing page/funnel based on them. ⚠️ Here’s What Working With Me Looks Like: 1) We hop on a quick 30-minute call. I learn what you need, we see if we're a good fit, and if we are, we discuss the scope and set the deadline so I can get started. 2) Then I send you a set of carefully picked questions to be able to research your audience and market properly, so your page/funnel is built for maximum potential success from the day one. 3) I deliver the first draft, and I work until you're happy (no client has ever needed more than 2 rounds, by the way). ✅ List Of Services I Provide: Landing Page Build & Copy Full Funnel Strategy & Build Webinar Funnels Upsell/Downsell Funnels Direct Response Copywriting (Including VSL scripts, emails and sales letters) You’ll get everything from initial strategy and competitor research to final delivery including funnel build and copy. Whether you need a single high-converting landing page, a complete website redesign, or a multi-step funnel, every project comes with built-in split testing because hitting a home run on the first try almost never happens. ⚠️ I only work with established businesses doing 6+ figures who understand that a funnel isn't just about looking good - it's about making money. That said, don't expect any crazy close or sales pitch at the end, because I know these tactics don’t work and I personally hate them... If you simply like my approach and portfolio then click the green invite to job button and let’s have a productive chat! Looking forward! Jakub

Your story is POWERFUL. Your copy isn't carrying it yet. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Anne is an incredibly talented writer and editor and takes seriously the intent of the copy, not what any certain type of copy is supposed to sound like. Her willingness to listen and connect to my goals is such an asset ... !" Halley, Therapist 🚨 You know what you offer is valuable. You've tried to write it down, and something gets lost every time. Not quite right. Not quite you. Not quite what makes the right person stop and say, "This is exactly what I've been looking for." So you rewrite it. The version you have now is better, but you still wouldn't send a dream client there without a knot in your stomach. You're tired of copy that's technically fine but doesn’t move anyone. You're done handing your story to someone who treats it like just another writing project. Content that connects is written for a specific human in the middle of a specific struggle who needed to feel understood before they could feel convinced. 🎯 I'm a Narrative Intelligence Strategist. I bring the psychology, the audience research, and the strategic thinking that happens before the writing. So your ideal client arrives at your page uncertain, guarded, and then finds themselves thinking, "They actually get it." Audience and ideal client research so your messaging meets the right person where they are. Brand positioning and story development so everything you publish sounds like one coherent, trustworthy voice. Copy editing and story editing rooted in emotional intelligence so the draft that's almost right becomes the version you're proud to send anywhere. Three months from now, your website works while you sleep. Your launch lands with people who were ready to say yes before they finished reading. That's the work. 🚀 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "It wasn't generic filler; it was thoughtful, strategic writing that actually represented who we are." Denzil, EconomyAI WORK WINS 📈 Real estate listings. 78% sold in UNDER 10 DAYS. 100% sold within 30. Listing copy built around buyer identity, not property features. 📣 Local business feature. One story, written for the right reader. One weekend later, the owner felt it in his business. ⚡ Pre-launch service pages. Figma copy reviewed, restructured, and sharpened for conversion before launch. Positioning anchored to ideal client research. 🏆 Invited by The Daily Meal to join its Culinary Content Network. Based on the quality and consistency of published blog content. 🎯 Therapist website copy. Existing pages refined for clarity, emotional resonance, and audience fit. The kind of copy that makes the right client feel found. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Anne is exactly what I need to write my memoir! Her style of writing is compelling and excellent." Jenna IS THIS YOU? ▶️ You're a therapist, founder, service professional, or someone with a story that deserves to be told, and you know your messaging hasn’t found its full impact yet. ▶️ You're willing to answer a few questions about your audience, your goals, and what you're trying to accomplish. ❌ You need high-volume content output on a tight turnaround with no discovery process. The discovery that shapes the work is brief, but it's non-negotiable. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Anne is one of the best copywriters I've worked with given her attention to detail and thoughtfulness. She really tries to understand your business, tone, and online persona. I've already rehired her for another project." Farah, Real Estate Client WHAT WORKING TOGETHER LOOKS LIKE 🔍 Your website sounds like you wrote it for Google instead of for the person you want to help. I research your audience, map their emotional journey, and rebuild your messaging around what they need to feel before they trust you enough to reach out. ✍️ You have a draft, maybe several, and none of them feel right. I edit for structure, clarity, and emotional pull so the final version sounds unmistakably like you while resonating with your audience. 🎯 Your launch is fast approaching, and your positioning doesn’t feel solid yet. I do the audience research so the people you most want to serve feel seen from the first line. 📖 You have a story that needs to be told in your voice. Narrative content and memoir ghostwriting rooted in deep listening, careful voice-matching, and the patience to get it right. 🧠 Your brand sounds like everyone else who does what you do. I develop the voice, the language, and the positioning that makes yours the one people remember. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Anne is emotionally intelligent, perceptive, and highly skilled. Her feedback was thoughtful, clear, and incredibly helpful." Kyla, KC & Co If any of this felt like someone finally put words to what you've been trying to solve, the next step is a conversation. Tell me what you're working on and where you feel stuck. 💬 Send me a message and let's chat. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "A top-tier freelancer I would strongly recommend." Rafael, Aon Data 🛡️Not sure yet?

Direct response copywriter with reality check: “Car for sale.” Sometimes the simplest copy sells best. Yet most businesses end up with bloated, lifeless landing pages that bury conversions instead of generating them. Then comes the confusion: “Why isn’t my business converting?” Here’s the uncomfortable truth: Most copywriters promise killer copy and deliver polished corporate fluff that converts worse than a broken checkout page. ✏️Cold emails built from recycled templates. ✏️Funnels that leak prospects. ✏️Paid traffic burned on pages that don’t convert. That’s not a traffic problem. That’s a copy problem. I’m a Direct Response Copywriter who treats every project like my own money is on the line. ❌𝕀 𝕕𝕠𝕟’𝕥 𝕔𝕙𝕒𝕤𝕖 𝕔𝕝𝕖𝕧𝕖𝕣 𝕨𝕠𝕣𝕕𝕡𝕝𝕒𝕪 𝕠𝕣 𝕒𝕨𝕒𝕣𝕕𝕤.

What I can build for you: ✅High-converting Landing Pages & Sales Pages ✅Video Sales Letters (VSLs) ✅Complete Funnels & Automations ✅Email Sequences (nurture + sales) ✅Paid Ad Copy & Short-Form Video Scripts (Meta, FB, IG) ✅Webinar Funnels Why it works: Most funnels fail because the copy is surface-level. It doesn’t speak to real fears, desires, and motivations. My goal is for your audience to read your page and think: “Oh, this person actually understands me.” That’s what drives CTRs, LTV, and conversions. We will have a quick chat to see if we are a good fit. I look forward to helping you crush your sales goals.

I've been writing full-time for 15+ years and I've completed over $300,000 worth of projects on Upwork, so you know you're in safe hands when you work with me. I develop long-term partnerships with my clients over many months and years. Here's what the CEO of a marketing agency had to say about me: "He's one of the greatest copywriters I've ever worked with. We've had a project going on for 6 years now which is crazy to think about!!!" If you need help with any aspect of copywriting – from newsletters to web copy to landing pages – I'd love to hear from you. What about AI? I've been writing since long before AI showed up, so I'm always happy to write 100% human-only content. However, many clients now ask me to use AI to speed up the content creation process, and I use it as and when needed – I have a pro subscription to Claude for this purpose. Tasks could include: - Writing and editing AI-assisted content - Reshaping and improving AI drafts for clarity, structure and flow - Fact-checking and tone refinement - SEO support (keywords, internal linking, meta descriptions) Whatever you need, if you want to work with a professional who takes his work and reputation seriously, let's talk.

Copywriter hiring guide
Copywriters craft persuasive text designed to guide audiences through every stage of the sales funnel. From catchy taglines and SEO-friendly web copy to vivid product descriptions and email campaigns, these professionals help businesses communicate effectively with their target market. Hiring a skilled copywriter can dramatically improve conversion rates, strengthen brand messaging, and drive measurable results across marketing channels.
What does a copywriter do?
A copywriter writes content designed to persuade, inform, or convert. The goal is to connect with a target audience and guide them toward a specific action, whether that's buying a product, signing up for a newsletter, or downloading a white paper.
Where content writers focus more on information, copywriters often specialize in direct response, search engine optimization (SEO), and brand voice, often collaborating with brand strategists for comprehensive messaging.
Key deliverables include:
SEO and digital copy: Web pages, blog posts, social media posts, video scripts, and email newsletters
Brand and creative copy: Taglines, brand stories, corporate communications, product packaging, event promotion
Direct response and marketing copy: Sales and landing pages, email marketing, paid ads, case studies, white papers, press releases
How to hire a copywriter on Upwork
Upwork can help you connect with experienced copywriters who can help your content reach and convert its audience. The hiring process is flexible, fast, and built to help you find talented, experienced professionals. Just follow these four simple steps.
Step 1: Craft a targeted job post
Your job post serves as the first point of contact with copywriters and directly influences the quality of applications you receive. In your post:
Specify the type of copy you need, such as landing pages, email funnels, or product descriptions
Describe your industry, target audience, and preferred brand tone
Include desired outcomes or KPIs (key performance indicators) like conversion rates or engagement metrics
Mention any required research, revisions, or optimization expectations
For a faster starting point, try the Job Post Generator powered by Uma™, Upwork's Mindful AI. Describe what you need in a few sentences, and Uma will craft a job post in seconds. You can also review copywriter job description templates to see what to include in your post.
Step 2: Filter and evaluate candidates
As you receive proposals, you can compare candidates based on their portfolios, proposals, and testimonials.
Use Upwork’s features to filter by rate, experience, and location
Have Uma conduct instant video interviews and provide shortlists of candidates with side-by-side comparisons
Review portfolios for similar deliverables and writing styles that match your brand
Look for SEO knowledge, direct response expertise, or specialized certifications
Check testimonials and any documented conversion metrics from past clients
Step 3: Interview your top choices
Quick video interviews can provide answers to any questions you have left for your top choices. They also help you get a feel for what working and communicating with candidates might be like.
Schedule and conduct interviews within Upwork messaging, where you'll receive immediate transcripts and summaries provided by Uma
Ask about their copy testing and optimization processes
Discuss their writing workflow and approach to revisions
Explore how they adapt tone and messaging for different audiences
Have them walk you through how previous work drove measurable results
To help your interviews be productive, you can review interview questions for copywriters.
Step 4: Agree on scope and begin work
Before the person you choose can begin work, you’ll need to have a clear contract in place. Contracts protect both parties and help collaborations be successful from beginning to end.
Use Upwork’s tools and services for creating and managing contracts, and processing payments
Choose fixed-price contracts for projects with clear deliverables, such as writing a predetermined number of pieces
Create milestone to break larger projects into manageable sizes, such as research, outlining, first draft, and revisions
Choose hourly contracts for ongoing projects or projects that lack a clear deliverable, such as supporting ongoing marketing efforts with many drafts of different types of content
Once the contract begins, be sure to give the writer everything they need to succeed, including limited access to Google Drive folders, brand guides, and similar assets.
How much does hiring a copywriter cost?
The cost to hire a copywriter is determined by the scope and complexity of the project, as well as the skills and experience of the professional. Hourly rates for copywriters on Upwork range between $19-$45 per hour. The following chart lists typical costs for projects frequently found through Upwork.

Frequently asked questions
Is hiring a copywriter worth it?
Yes, hiring a copywriter is worth the investment, especially if you're running a B2C business or launching a product. A strong landing page or email funnel written by a skilled professional can dramatically improve conversion rates. For some small businesses, a single rewrite can be the difference between break-even and profitability.
What qualifications should a copywriter have?
Qualifications you should look for include strong writing skills, a solid understanding of marketing strategy, and the ability to connect with your target audience. Instead of focusing on degrees, review their portfolio and highlight required skills in your job description. The best copywriters can show examples of copy that converts and explain the thinking behind their messaging.
Are copywriters still in demand?
Yes, copywriters are more in demand than ever. As digital marketing and e-commerce continue to grow, businesses need skilled copywriters to craft messaging that converts. While many teams experiment with AI tools, the results often fall short when it comes to brand voice, nuance, and strategy. Businesses continue to rely on professional copywriters when ROI and customer experience are on the line.
How do I find a copywriter?
To find a copywriter, start by defining your project. Then search for freelance copywriters with relevant experience. Upwork makes it easy to browse portfolios, compare ratings, and find professionals who specialize in your industry. Look for candidates who have worked on similar projects and can adapt to your brand's tone.
Is an AI or human copywriter better?
For copywriting, professional writers are best; crafting text that converts takes creativity and expertise that AI has yet to achieve. AI tools can help generate drafts, but they often miss brand voice and emotional cues. Skilled human copywriters deliver messaging that's tailored, persuasive, and aligned with your goals.
What types of projects do copywriters work on?
Copywriters contribute to a wide range of projects. Their job is to write copy that converts users. This includes web copy, landing pages, sales letters, social media posts, email marketing campaigns, product descriptions, and white papers. Some specialize in content marketing, while others focus on direct response or SEO.
Should I employ a full-time copywriter or engage a freelancer?
For most businesses, hiring a freelance copywriter offers more flexibility and value. Freelancers are ideal for project-based work, like a new landing page or sales email sequence. You get access to specialized talent without the overhead of a full-time hire. In-house copywriters can be a good fit for companies with ongoing, high-volume content needs.
