Re: Transferrable skills across different markets / languages

Hello, I'm wondering whether people have experience working as copywriters in markets other than the English language market? I'm thinking about Mexico but also interested to know about Asia. Assuming a writer has fluency in that language, what has your experience been? I suppose many copywriting s...

Re: Is it better to be a generalist or a specialist in the beginning?

Re: Syntax to Storytelling: Seeking Copywriting Comrades for Insight and Fun

How do i know which companies are making money with their emails? You probably won't know for sure, unless you can get them to tell you. But you can look at companies that have been in business for a while. And one's that are obviously making money (or they wouldn't be in business very long). And i...
