Recently we published an episode titled 5 Essential Skills Every Digital CEO Needs that we received so much amazing feedback on. Jilly and I just knew that we had to take a deeper dive into each of these skills, as mastering them is critical to your success. That is why is why we’re bringing you a special series that does just that! On this first episode we’re talking more about copy, because how can you be expected to sell more of your stuff if you can’t use words that sell? We invite you to take your next piece of copy that’s about to go out, whether it’s a landing page, email or Instagram post, and apply at least one of these tactics to it – and see what happens. Make sure to tune in for the next episode in this series, when we talk all about SALES!
