need some advice
I'm 17. Been building an agency for the last year. Started with social media management, script writing, editing, content strategy... basically whatever got me in the game. Now I'm realizing I don't want to be another "agency owner" selling reels. I want to build something bigger. The vision is helping creators and experts build an actual knowledge business. Not just content. Like literally helping them build everything: - offer - curriculum - Skool - landing page - emails - content - launch - everything. Basically becoming their implementation partner. Right now I'm in a weird stage though. I'm waiting on 2 clients. If both close, Alhamdulillah, I've got enough runway to spend the next few months building this properly. If they don't, I'll probably have to find a job/freelance work just to survive out of this. I'm not posting this because I want sympathy. I just genuinely want advice from people who've already done this. If you were in my position... What would you do? Also if anyone needs help with scripts, research, offer messaging, landing pages or content strategy, hit me up. Always down to work.

Become a specialist in one thing man. No one person can do all of the things you've listed to a high standard. The only way you can do all of those things is by outsourcing and hiring, which you can't afford to do at 17. You sound like a liability to most business owners when you give them a list of 10 things you claim to be able to do.

@Imad Shankroo I don't know man. It depends entirely on what you're good at. And what exactly is "lead gen content?"
To people who already have their clients - research question
I am curious about something because I belive proper research of your potential buyers is key to creating good copy. As "outsider" when you want to work with new client and you are limited by what your own research can accomplish (generic info/questions, reviews, communities, etc) - what is actual industry standart when it comes to getting data you need? Does your client (biz owner) give you what research they have, data, reports, customer calls so you can make copy based on that or do they expect you to do your thing? Since I am not someone who works in that industry I simply dont have information that is available to them and they know better what questions ask people in customer support or what complaints people have. Obviously I know it is up to me to define key personas and angles but I cant cook meal out of thin air :D I know it is always up to what you negotiate but I feel like no one talks about it and it is killing me. How much does your client give you in terms of numbers and data and insights? Any info is appreaciated! I dont want to come off as amateur when I ask company for their research/data and they might expect that I will be doing research without their input. Bonus points if you have experience as creative strategist (aka someone who makes ads so research is your #1 job) because especially there it is crucial to have correct information.

There are two types of business owner that I've experienced. 1. They know who has bought the most of their product, and to solve what problem. They have done extensive research, and have all of the data they need. They should give that to you if they expect you to do your job correctly. At the end of the day, you work for them for the duration of time that you work with them. I know a lot of freelancers think that the client works for the freelancer, but you work FOR the client. If they don't give you the tools to do your job properly, they can't expect good results. 2. You'd be surprised by how many business owners have no idea who their client is, and no idea what research even is. They'll send you what they think is right, and it might be their own research that is preventing them from scaling. Business owners can be very stubborn, and very "I'm right because I know my own product." Sometimes they're wrong. So you need to be able to do the research that determines whether they're wrong or not. So to give my thoughts on your question: Yes - they should give you whatever you need, but you should know enough to be able to determine whether what they are currently doing is right or wrong.
Looking for an agency
Hey, I'm currently in need to join an agency as a copywriter & Marketer... The only thing I have is 'willingness to learn', I can give it my all.. Contact me if you are an agency owner, if not then give contact info of the agency you know...

You should cold email agencies and ask them. You'll be surprised with how many reply to you if you're honest. But I do recommend specifying what you want to do. "Willingness to learn" doesn't really do anything for you unless you pair it with a specific skill.
Three meta video ads written for portfolio
Hi all, After input from Nabeel Azeez and Shafaq Kazmi, I wrote three video ad scripts for acne supplements. They are not long. I focused on a short and crisp script for maximum impact. I also used the learning from Lina Fahizul's workshop and was careful not to twist the knife. The most rewarding part was the research. Reading the subreddits where people tell their pains, frustrations and how they are missing out on life gave me exact wording to use in the scripts. For the portfolio, I wrote the Google Doc in the below framework: 1. Why I chose this product 2. Why I Wrote These Three Ads This Way 3. Customer research from subreddit (pain points segmented) 4. Amazon customer review summary of competitor products 5. Product I chose to write creative for 6. The three creatives Feel free to rip apart the video script.

@Abrar Saad I like your research. Your ads are okay. Few things I'd point out, but who am I after all? I'm not a fan of the "assumption" style copy. If you ever got trained in sales, one of the first things you'll learn is to never assume anything about the prospect. I take the same approach in copy. Saying things like "you're going through X, and you are experiencing Y" within the first 2-3 lines of your copy is risky, and you could lose the reader there. Your copy is actually good, but just the wrong way around for me. I would bring the solution a bit higher, so they know the second they start reading that you're going to give them a solution. I want you to shock me with your solution. Vitamin B7 is so "boring" that I almost don't believe it's going to help me, because if I suffered with acne all of my life, I am sure I would have heard about B7 before. It's not like I wouldn't spend years researching how to get rid of this thing that is destroying my life. Ad 3 is the best, but I'd remove the line about crying in their room. It's a bit cliché. Others might disagree, but I think this line "No need to apply cream 3 times per day or 2 hours of make-up to hide acne" is your best line out of all the ads. That is your main angle. I'm sure women have found a solution to their acne over the years - hence why B7 sounds boring - but the immediate problem is that they have to disappear into the bathroom every few hours to touch up their makeup or apply more cream. Try to go into that angle a bit deeper to find more big ideas from it.
Targeting dentists with bad FB ads
Hey guys...I've been using the meta ads library to find bad ads for pesonal brands dentists and then reach out to them and point out something in their ads that might be costing them patients eyeballs...the thing is ...they are open for more info and education about why their ads aren't getting as much attention.. but then when they understand what is broken I kinda get ghosted afterwards....can anyone here give me some feedback...is it because I didn't make an offer or overexplained everything? And if someone is working with dentists rn...i would appreciate any advices about the niche

@Toni Oliver I would never rewrite a piece of copy for any business that doesn't understand copy. They will not see the value in a rewrite. They might even be insulted. And in the age of AI-slop, they will probably look at it and think, "Why would I pay someone to just write words, when I can get ChatGPT to do it?" These businesses are not trained in copy. I know it hurts to hear it as a copywriter, but nobody cares about copy as much as you do, nor do they see the value in it. There's a big difference between your local dentist, and let's say, Agora, who understand that good copy is the cornerstone of their entire business. Try to build an offer without using the word copywriting even once. I guarantee you'll find more clients in the next 12 months without saying "copywriting," than you did in the last 12 months when you were saying it.
