Why complete that copywriting course?

LinkedIn has a new feature. You get to answer a question. Answer three questions and you get a label. They invited me to answer this question: What do you do if you’re struggling to stay motivated in online copywriting courses?

I don’t think they liked my answer:

I’d ask you why you bothered to take the course in the first place.

Most copywriting courses are a waste of time.

I’ve got a story-based course that people seem to like because it’s not the usual emphasis on choosing words. You don’t need a course to be successful. If you want to be a copywriter you can analyze other people’s copy.

If you want to write your own, get copy coaching or feedback on what you’ve written.

Or forget the whole thing and hire a copywriter. I’m usually available.
