Do You Value Community Over Competition?

Rob and Kira take the mic for the 281st episode of The Copywriter Club Podcast. In this episode, they walk through what makes TCC… TCC.

Every 10 episodes or so, Kira and I, we get together and we just share stuff that's not interview based and we've been wanting to do this for quite a while. So we're going to talk about some of the things that we believe. That we believe around copywriting and around the importance of the work that we do and maybe some of the ideas that hold together The Copywriter Club. Does that sound about right to you Kira? Kira Hug:  Yeah, like you said, this is something we haven't done before, so I'm not sure how this is going to turn out, but I'm excited to see what happens. Rob Marsh:  We could easily find out that we totally disagree on what we both believe. Kira Hug:  That's true. Rob Marsh:  Yeah so, it'll be interesting to see, because we have not really talked through this at all before hopping on to record, we just came up with our own lists and now let's share them. Before we share them though, we should say, like always, our podcast is sponsored by something and this week it is TCC IRL The Copywriter Club, In Real Life, it's happening in Nashville in just a couple of weeks, March 28th through the 30th and it is an awesome event. If you don't have a ticket, there are a few tickets left and you can come and join us. Kira Hug:  Yes. And can I share the new excitement with what we just decided? Rob Marsh:  This is good.

And 10% of the profit from TCC IRL will go towards a specific organization, which is TBD, but we will figure it out soon. It feels like a good way to do something when it feels like there aren't many things we can do, this is one thing we can do. So we're excited to do that. If you do purchase a ticket, at least that part of that is going towards an organization that's doing great work in Ukraine and supporting people. Rob Marsh:  Yep. That's maybe a small way that we can make a difference for a lot of people that are being very significantly impacted by the war. Kira Hug:  Yes. So let's kick off with some of your beliefs. And again, these are TCC beliefs, but it's fun because Rob,
