President, AWAI

If you’re ready to become a professional, well-paid B2B copywriter faster …
If you’re ready to leapfrog past the learning curve and learn to write like some of the best-paid, most in-demand pros, using their very own techniques …
Or, if you’re just ready for the “next step up” in your writing career by offering more services to clients (and charging higher fees for them) …
I’d like to invite you to join us for the first ever 4 Weeks to B2B Pro Virtual Workshop, beginning online July 14th.
Nothing like this has ever been done before …
Where these 8 top-level B2B copywriters have all come together for a single common purpose:
To give you EVERY DETAIL you need to write master-level B2B copy (and charge accordingly for it) in just 4 weeks.
And given how successful and busy these top experts are …
I honestly don’t know if we’ll ever do an event like this again.
That’s why if you’re serious about elevating your skills as a B2B copywriter quickly and dramatically … you don’t want to miss this.
And if that’s not enough reason to give this opportunity a close look and decide to be a part of it today, let me say this up front:
Only 125 AWAI members will be allowed in.
I’ll explain why this is the case in a moment …
But first, let me get straight into the details of this groundbreaking event.
Here’s what you need to know right now:
This is not “Copy 101” or a “crash course.”
(Though if you ARE just starting out, keep reading. We’ll get you up to speed with the basics before the event kicks off. This is NOT an opportunity to miss just because you’re new. But more on that in a few minutes.)
This is an unprecedented opportunity to spend four weeks this summer with personal attention from some of the top writers in the B2B industry:
-
You’ll get deep inside their “head space … ”
You’ll get to be inside their heads and discover how they think about copy … how they approach each project … and how they polish each piece with diamond precision.
You’ll get to hear the very thought processes they go through to craft the master-level copy their names are synonymous with.
(This is absolute GOLD for beginning and advanced copywriters alike.)
-
You’ll learn the market-tested writing techniques they use to guarantee themselves six-figure incomes, year in, year out …
I’m talking about the detail-by-detail, beginning-to-end writing processes these masters personally use every day …
-
You’ll get the systems and strategies each has spent years (and even decades) perfecting …
You’ll be able to use these formulas to significantly shrink the typical learning curve … and save yourself months of training and possibly years of potential pitfalls, frustrations, and “newbie” errors.
-
You’ll get a clear, exclusive, and “doable” plan for finding, landing, and working with your first few clients … with exclusive coaching and in-depth guidance for doing it …
You’ll have guidance for putting up (or revising) an impressive website fast. You’ll learn the hidden places to look for your first client, and you’ll take the first guided steps to landing him.
-
And, you’ll get to ask ANY questions you have to do with writing B2B copy … getting clients … or running your business!
For the entire event, these experts will be “all yours” … not only revealing their most closely-held secrets, but available to answer any questions you have during their live sessions.
In short, this is a rare opportunity to get a comprehensive, master-level education in one of the most lucrative and in-demand niches in the copywriting world.
You’ll have the ability to replicate each writer’s personal technique for crafting the top 8, most in-demand (and highest paying) B2B projects today.
You’ll become confident in your skills, thanks to the hands-on exercises they’ll give you … and their guidance in crafting new samples for your portfolio.
Plus, you’ll get the option of having your assignments professionally critiqued, so you know your writing is ready to “wow” potential clients!
I can’t imagine another opportunity for B2B copywriters that is more exciting or crucial to your success.
Talk about rising to the top of your niche …
Detail-by-detail, personal information, and “one-on-one” revelations like what you’ll experience are just not available anywhere else.
And that’s why this Workshop — featuring some of the most recognized and respected B2B copywriters in the industry today — will be so exclusive.
To ensure that everyone gets all their questions answered … one-on-one attention … and critiques of their work …
Only 125 copywriters will be given a “golden ticket” to these virtual sessions and all the benefits that come with them.
I truly hope you’ll be one of them.
Because by the end of this Workshop …
As long as you attend the live Workshop sessions, participate in the exercises, complete the assignments, and submit them for feedback …
You WILL BE capable of taking top assignments from B2B clients, ready to work on the same professional level as the best in the business.
How can I be so confident?
It’s because of the “dream team” we’ve gathered to teach you …
Master Insight #1
“A successful B2B copywriter is agile and knows how to write many different types of B2B copy.”
— Steve Slaunwhite
Copywriters that are not JUST recognized experts in their specialty, but who are excellent teachers as well.
Let me take a few minutes to introduce them to you now, to give you a taste of what you’ll discover in their exclusive Workshop sessions … and how you can use their wisdom to immediately strengthen your writing.
And, you’ll discover not just one but 8 (yes, eight) highly in-demand projects … each with the potential to give you a successful, satisfying career … and bring you a steady six-figure income.
(Plus, be sure to check out the sidebars to glean some of the master’s tips along the way!)
You’ll Be Perfectly Positioned to Rule the B2B “Content Revolution,” Where Writers Are King
According to an extensive survey from the Content Marketing Institute, 55% of B2B companies say they’ll be spending MORE on content marketing this year than last year.
(And by “content,” I mean writing that provides useful information, establishes expertise, and is persuasive, like an article or e-newsletter.)
The Business-to-Business Sales Cycle
In B2B, making sales is quite a bit different than in the “consumer” world. As the copywriter, your goal is to provide information that persuades the reader the product or service you’re writing about is worth investigating further.
This is often done with B2B content pieces, like white papers, case studies, and newsletters. The final deal is most often made by in-house sales teams.
It’s been called the “content revolution” — and it’s excellent news for you as a freelance writer.
It means B2B marketers have money to spend on more white papers … more web copy … more email campaigns … and tons of new, well-researched content pieces to support their sales cycles and sales teams.
And your expert guide through this “content revolution” … and the 4 Weeks to B2B Pro Virtual Workshop … is Steve Slaunwhite.
Steve has been a full-time freelance copywriter and consultant in the B2B market for 18 years … and he’ll kick off the event with his Keynote Address titled, Why Content is King in B2B Marketing — And How You Can Claim Your Kingdom.
I don’t want to give away any of his surprises …
Just know that during his Keynote, he’ll explain everything you need to know about this “content revolution” … and how you’ll be able to claim your “throne” by the end of your four-week experience.
Master Insight #2
“There isn’t enough skilled and knowledgeable writers to meet the demands of the ‘content revolution.’ And these projects pay very well. That means there’s a REAL opportunity here to build a freelance business and make a good living. It’s not hype — it’s just a fact.”
— Steve Slaunwhite
Plus — and this is truly a HUGE benefit to you — Steve is also going to serve as your emcee for the Workshop.
See, Steve has experience writing every single one of the projects you’ll be learning about … which means he’ll ask the speaker questions you may not have known to ask, ensuring you get the soup-to-nuts understanding you need to confidently work on that project.
Now, without further ado, let me give you a brief introduction to each project type … give you a taste of the handsome fees you can charge for each one … and exactly what you’re going to be learning in your 2-hour LIVE sessions with each individual Master B2B Copywriter …
Project #1: B2B Sales Copy
What it is: Interest-grabbing ads, landing pages, emails, and even direct-mail letters are the first, crucial step in any B2B marketing campaign.
What You’ll Do: Write each piece to intrigue the prospect enough to request more information, and create the opportunity for the sales team to come in.
Demand: Constant. Lead generation is essential to a business’ growth, and testing new media and messages is a continuous project. (Bob Bly has three times more requests for work than he can handle.)
How Much You Can Charge: Write 3 different ads and you can charge $500 … a landing page runs between $1,000 and $2,500, depending on length … a short email directing traffic to your landing page starts at $250 … and a full lead-generating direct-mail package runs from $2,500 up to $5,000.
Meet Your “Lead-Gen” Master: Bob Bly
- Specializes in B2B technology companies
- Named “America’s Top Copywriter” by McGraw-Hill
- 36+ years of experience in B2B
- Past clients include Dow Chemical, Intuit, Forbes, ITT, and dozens of others
- Author of 80+ books on copywriting, marketing, and business
If you haven’t had the pleasure of hearing Bob Bly teach yet, come prepared to take a TON of notes.
Bob has over 36 years of experience in the B2B field — having written for such huge companies as IBM, U.S. West, Lucent Technologies, and even the Physicians’ Desk Reference!
But Bob’s 36 years of experience should really be measured in hours …
Because he writes 12 hours per day.
In fact, he does little else but write copy and spend time with his family. He outsources everything — including invoicing, client management, and lawn-mowing.
So you can bet that any time Bob is available to speak, even Master Copywriters sit down to take notes.
And he’s ready to pass on his wisdom to you …
During Bob’s live Workshop session, he’ll teach you:
- How to write and design B2B landing pages that get up to 72% conversion rates …
- How to write winning text-only emails — no graphics or HTML — in about 5 minutes each …
- The 7 landing page “hot spots” that influence conversion most …
- 10 tips for writing winning landing pages …
- How to generate leads on Pinterest with tip-o-graphics …
- How to overcome skepticism and build instant credibility on your landing pages …
- And more!
With what he has planned, Bob has said you’ll be able to cut your lead-gen learning curve in half!
And since lead generation is so important in B2B, you could feasibly base your entire career on this service alone …
But we’re just getting started …
Project #2: Case Studies
What it is: Article-style stories that demonstrate an organization’s success using your client’s product or service. They help land more sales by creating in-depth proof.
What You’ll Do: Interview the person who used the product or service successfully and write up their story in an objective but creative article.
Demand: According to a survey from the Content Marketing Institute, 77% of B2B marketers use case studies — and those who do continuously need new ones to reflect their new products or services.
How Much You Can Charge: Beginners should start between $500 and $600 per page, and work up to $1,000 per page.
Casey Hibbard is on Deck to Teach You Her Time-Tested Formula for Writing Powerful Case Studies …
- Has been writing B2B case studies since 2000
- Past clients include Avaya, Acxiom, and Zebra Technologies
Casey is THE top case studies expert in the B2B industry, and I’m very excited she’s agreed to teach a 2-hour LIVE session on her lucrative specialty.
She’s going to give you her six-figure formula for writing powerful case studies …
She’ll show you why you can earn anywhere from $1,200 to $2,000 for a two-page case study …
And, she’ll give you her insider “tricks of the trade” that will make your case studies shine.
Plus —
Master Insight #3
“Giving a business its first ever customer success story/case study is like Christmas morning. They are thrilled to have documented a success in such a way. The story not only shows benefits to potential customers, but gives the business itself a lot of pride and satisfaction that what they do makes a difference.”
— Casey Hibbard
- How to make sure you write a case study that not only tells a compelling story — but also helps your clients meet their marketing and sales goals (your clients will love you for this!) …

You’ll have every detail you need to start writing lucrative case studies for your clients.
Project #3: B2B Video Scripts
What it is: B2B videos are highly effective, shareable pieces of content that engage, inform, and persuade without feeling “sales-y.” They can generate leads, create buzz, or create a competitive advantage for your clients.
What You’ll Do: Write the audio and visual script (i.e., what happens on camera), and sometimes even produce the video for an extra fee.
Demand: Video is very hot in the B2B world right now.
How Much You Can Charge: $150/scripted minute, plus 50% to cover your time in client meetings, research, etc.
Casey Demchak Will Show You How to Hit the Hot Spots With Your Video Scripts
- 21 years of experience writing B2B copy and video scripts
- Former screenwriter and Hollywood story analyst
- Author of Essential Sales Writing Secrets
Video scripts are a whole new animal for many writers, but they’re fun and very profitable once you get them down.
That’s why we’ve asked Casey Demchak, B2B video scripts expert, to teach you his personal techniques for each video script he approaches.
During his live session, you will …
- Gain a strong understanding of how to incorporate the power of storytelling in your videos …
- Learn to identify the most common pitfalls you absolutely want to avoid when tackling a video script …
- Learn how to increase your value (and revenue) by positioning yourself as a video writer and producer with your clients …
- And much more!
With Casey’s proven strategies, you’ll be on your way to writing video scripts in half the time!
Project #4: B2B E-newsletters
What it is: E-newsletters are relatively short, multipurpose articles that provide useful information, open up two-way dialogue with readers, and position your client as an expert in their field. They keep your client’s name in front of their audience, boosting trust and familiarity.
What You’ll Do: Research and write 700-1,000 word articles for each weekly or monthly issue. Often, a client may ask you to set up a template, which not only makes your job easier, but you can charge an extra fee for.
Demand: Getting hotter. According to Michael, the rise of “fleeting” social media has made long, foundational content even more important to create credibility and results.
How Much You Can Charge: A minimum of $900 and up to $2,000 per weekly or monthly issue.
Meet Michael Katz, THE Expert
on E-newsletters …
- 14 years of experience writing e-newsletters
- Regarded as “the expert’s expert”
- Author of 300+ issue e-letter, The Likeable Expert Gazette
Since he “accidentally stumbled” onto them in 2001, Michael has been a successful e-newsletter writer … working with big companies like Comcast, Harvard, Uno Chicago Grill, and Country Financial. (Though, he says he prefers to work with smaller professional service firms.)
During Michael’s session, you’re going to get the best of his best advice, and learn how to establish and operate an email newsletter for your clients — top to bottom.
But, your e-newsletter won’t just be any e-newsletter.
Master Insight #4:
“Newsletters are a great business model. I’ve got clients who have been with me for over 10 years. It’s so much better than looking for new project work again and again.”
— Michael Katz
As Michael said to me recently, “Anyone can send out an e-newsletter. The hard part is creating something of value that supports the client’s overall strategy — otherwise it’s just more noise.”
During Michael’s session, B2B Newsletters That Work, you’ll learn to do exactly that:
- You’ll get his up-to-date best practices and insights for e-newsletters in 2015 …
- You’ll discover his 7 BIG secrets for writing an effective e-newsletter …
- You’ll learn to use his newsletter design and layout “skeletons” to get you ahead of the game and cut your work time in half …
- He’ll walk you through his “two hippos” formula for deciding what to write … simply pop in the “two hippos” Michael will teach you, and you’ll always know exactly what topics to cover in your letters …
- You’ll master working with clients AND get Michael’s insider’s secrets for pricing and packaging your services — secrets that took him years to learn and develop, and which he’ll straight out give to you …
Plus, with Michael’s in-session exercises, you won’t just learn his brainstorming techniques … you’ll also learn how to use the power of e-newsletters to boost your own business and bring in new clients!
Project #5: B2B Websites
What it is: A website that generate leads and tells your client’s story in a compelling way is a top priority for nearly all B2B companies today.
What You’ll Do: Strategize key messages and craft the copy for home pages, product/service description pages, About pages, and many other website elements.
Demand: Very high. Many companies constantly want to update, re-do, or create brand-new websites — ASAP.
How Much You Can Charge: $2,500 and up.

— Rebecca McKenzie,
Training and Coaching Client
Project #6: B2B Blogs and Articles

What You’ll Do: Research and write topic-specific pieces with compelling, often persuasive, angles.
Demand: Constant. Your clients need a constant stream of new blogs and articles, and may ask for multiple pieces per week or per month.
How Much You Can Charge: Depends on length, but no less than $75 a piece, up to $500 or more.
Melanie Rembrandt Will Show You How to Write B2B Blogs and Articles That Boost Your Profits Fast!
- Writing in the B2B industry for over 20 years

Melanie believes that great communication is all about getting straight to the point — so that’s exactly what she’ll do during her live session.
She’s going to straight-up teach you to write great blogs and articles your clients will be happy to pay for.
You’ll discover the basics of writing high-quality blogs and articles that help your clients stand out from the crowd … and increase your personal income in just days …
You’ll get Melanie’s secret tips for writing a high-quality, effective blog post your clients will love — done in just 30 minutes or less …

This is going to be an excellent session on one of the most in-demand skills in B2B today.
Project #7: Visual B2B Content
What it is: B2B content is becoming more and more visual. “Infographics” are among the top 10 most common projects today.
What You’ll Do: Learn to recommend visual ideas that complement and support your copy.
Demand: Increasing. As the Internet becomes more and more visually oriented, B2B content is too.
How Much You Can Charge: This little-known but critical skill increases your perceived value and expertise. It will make you stand out from other copywriters! You may choose to only charge extra fees when you provide full design services.
You’ll Get Steve’s Inside Scoop on a Little-Known But Critical Skill That Will Make You Look Like a Pro on the Cutting-Edge …
In this live half-session, Steve Slaunwhite is going to pull back the curtain on a critical skill that very few copywriters have (or even know they should have!).
It’s all about visual content and the design of B2B-specific copy and content … and offering your clients design recommendations that help bring your “vision” to life.
To be clear, you don’t need to personally become a designer (unless you want to). This is about being able to offer your clients design recommendations that help bring your “vision” for your copy to life. It’ll make your message all the more powerful … and it’ll make you look like a seasoned pro!
In What B2B Writers Need to Know About Visuals, you’ll discover …
- How to make your copy more visual and “eye-friendly” …
- When and how to recommend visual aids (e.g., graphics, pictures, illustrations, charts, etc.) …
- How to bring your own designer onto a project or work with your client’s designer …
- How to provide feedback on designs …
- And more!
Again, this is an important skill that very few copywriters have, and will help you bring that extra 10% of value to your clients.
Project #8: White Papers
What it is: The big dog of B2B copywriting, white papers are in-depth reports that help during lead generation, formal evaluation, and final buying decisions. They are the “foundational” content pieces … and are the most challenging and most rewarding pieces a company can publish.
What You’ll Do: Dig in and get to the bottom of your client’s product or service and the problem they’re trying to solve. Then, present the technical information in a persuasive, but “business conversational,” tone.
Demand: “Overwhelming,” says white paper expert Gordon Graham.
How Much You Can Charge: Fees range between $2,500 and $10,000 depending on length, with the average being around $4,200.
There’s No One in the World Better to Teach You About White Papers Than Gordon Graham — After All, He IS “ThatWhitePaperGuy!”
- A B2B copywriter since 1984
- Over 15 years focusing exclusively on white papers
- Big name clients include Google, Intuit, Oracle, and Verizon
Gordon is another writer whose name is practically synonymous with his project:
He is, quite literally, “ThatWhitePaperGuy.”
He wrote the book on white papers, White Papers for Dummies, and he’s been an attendee favorite at past B2B Copywriting Intensives.
And it’s no surprise he’s so good—he’s been a B2B copywriter since 1984, with over 15 years of experience focusing almost exclusively on white papers.
Gordon has even taught at two different universities and the in-house teams at Cisco, Ericsson, and Sprint.
Help clients refine their message and improve their communications—and most of all, find a better way to tell their stories.
He’s written for legendary companies like Google … but the feats he’s most proud of are helping the companies you’ve probably never heard of … the small- to medium-sized businesses for whom he’s made a real difference with his work.
And after his workshop session, you’ll be able to start doing the same.
Master Insight #5
“Most white papers are not very persuasive and not very well executed. The bar is low, and I haven’t found it difficult to do better than most companies do. I see 5 poor white papers for every good one I come across.”
— Gordon Graham
In his live session, Gordon will show you …
- 3 simple questions to ask a client to find out if they need a white paper …
- Which of the “three flavors” of white papers to use for a given marketing challenge …
- How to research more effectively, saving you tons of time so you can turn out projects faster …
- How to structure the contents of a draft … the important things to put in and what to definitely leave out …
- How to avoid typical pitfalls of writer’s block, false starts, miscommunications with the client, and the frustration of having to scrap and re-work …
- Many other practical takeaways, including how to decide whether writing white papers is the career move for you, a service you want to offer, or a service you might want to offer exclusively.
Bottom line:
You’ll understand what a white paper is … how they’re used in complex B2B sales … and, you’ll find out whether you might enjoy writing them.
Plus, you’ll build confidence with hands-on exercises and learn Gordon’s tips and best practices that cut your learning curve by 20+ hours!
Oh, and there’s one MORE thing Gordon has insisted you receive …
If you register for the 4 Weeks to B2B Pro Virtual Workshop today, Gordon is going to include a potentially priceless bonus video …
It’ll reveal one, very simple step that you can use to generate thousands of extra dollars in revenue per year for you … using your white papers or other B2B content… with hardly any extra effort.
It’s a little trick Gordon likes to call “repurposing”—and it can increase your project income, get you additional copywriting work, and position you as a go-to expert with your client.
Master Insight #6
“An effective white paper must be very well-researched and carefully argued, so doing one is like climbing a mountain. When you’re finished, you see something few people ever see: you stand on that mountaintop and take in an incredible view.”
— Gordon Graham
Plus, it’ll save you hours and hours of valuable time, while making you more money and increasing your productivity.
He’ll show you how to repurpose one piece of content (like a white paper) and convert it into five other types, using actual samples from a real client project.
Plus, he’ll give you a master list and a unique “pyramid” graphic that instantly reveals which types of content can be repurposed into what…
And he will point out the 2 best times to propose repurposing, either as a bargaining chip or a value-add (in a way that DOESN’T feel one bit like selling)…
Again, this generous bonus alone could be worth thousands of dollars in extra (and mostly effortless) work for you.
But …
If you don’t know how to find, land, and work with clients … all of the things I’ve just told you about will be practically useless.
That’s why we’ve added an all-important fifth “Bonus” Week to the 4 Weeks to B2B Pro Workshop …
A full extra week JUST on getting clients!
BONUS: Week #5
Two Full Sessions on Landing Clients ASAP, Self-Marketing, and Building Your Business with Ed Gandia
- Has been writing in B2B for 12 years
- Founding partner of the International Freelancer’s Academy and International Freelancer’s Day
- Co-author of award winning book, The Wealthy Freelancer
If there’s anyone who could be called a master of building a freelance business, it’s Ed Gandia.
Not only is he a Master B2B Copywriter, Ed is an expert on “transitioning successfully from employee to self-employed,” having made the leap from zero to six-figures in just 27 months himself — without putting his family or financial future at risk.
He’s successfully coached hundreds of B2B copywriters just like you through landing their first several clients and scaling up their businesses after.
But this isn’t going to be your run-of-the-mill coaching experience …
Ed’s approach to launching a freelance B2B copywriting business is totally unique. He’ll get you focused on getting quick wins and generating momentum fast so you’re naturally inspired to keep going.
He’ll use the power of his incredible experience and behavioral science to boost your self-confidence, inspire more action, and generate real results.
And you’ll get TWO full sessions with this business-building master!
He’s going to walk you through a concentrated, “no-fluff,” step-by-step plan he teaches his individual coaching students … the very same steps he’s spent years perfecting.
In the first session of How to Land Your First Round of Clients, you will …
- Learn to bring your real, unique value to the surface, making your services extra attractive while marketing yourself …
- Develop a powerful “value statement” you can use on your website and while talking with prospective clients …
- Tap your own network of contacts for client referrals and direct opportunities …
- And, create an impressive website quickly and without breaking your budget.
And of course, Ed will be coaching you LIVE so you can ask him any questions you have about self-marketing or landing clients.
But that’s only Part One!
In Part Two …
- You’ll assemble your “highest-chance” prospect list …
- You’ll craft short but powerful prospecting emails that get responses …
- You’ll learn to manage your first conversation with a prospect like a pro …
- And, you’ll get quick wins early on in the game that give you confidence and effortless inspiration!
Bottom line?
You’ll have a very clear and “doable” action plan for landing your first two to three new clients!
Master Insight #7
“Once you have some domain knowledge or a specialty and your basic writing skills in place, it’s not hard to attract clients. B2B clients are starving for good writers and good storytellers. They really are.”
— Gordon Graham
This Bonus Week — four full hours of coaching and Q&A time with Ed — absolutely blows the value of this Workshop off the charts …
Not just because Ed has said he would have to charge $2,000-$4,000 to give this training one-on-one …
But because of how incredibly valuable this training is going to be for the future of your business. (After all, you can have all the copy skills in the world … but without the skills to find and land clients, your business won’t be very successful!)
And he’s graciously agreed to give it and his best advice to you as a bonus for attending the 4 Weeks to B2B Pro Virtual Workshop.
Three Paying Clients and All the Confidence I Need
“When I started with Ed, I had zero paid clients, no solid leads, and no confidence that I could actually make it at as a freelancer. I just finished my last session with Ed a few weeks ago and now I have three paying clients and my confidence is through the roof. Ed showed me what I was doing wrong and gently guided me to a more effective version of my business (and myself). With Ed, I got more than a coach, I got a mentor.”

$80,000 in Revenue Thanks to Ed
“Ed managed to kick-start my stagnant B2B writing business. He’s a warm, smart, and motivating guy who shares everything he knows — and really cares about his students’ real-world results. The [new client I landed] will result in probably $80,000 in revenue.”

A Game Changer
"Ed's coaching was a game changer for me. It helped me to realize that I wasn't running my business, but instead, it was running me. It was through Ed's ideas, shared experiences, and suggestions that I was able to get a handle on things, and start to put together a strategic plan for turning my business around. Since working with Ed, my business has evolved, and continues to evolve to this day."

I mentioned earlier that if you’re brand-new to B2B or copywriting, you shouldn’t pass this opportunity up …
That’s because there’s yet another bonus I’ve lined up for you … something that’s perfect for any aspiring or up-and-coming B2B copywriter …
A special gift from your host, Steve Slaunwhite, who has generously agreed to GIVE you his Principles of B2B Copywriting course — a 3-part webinar series that will get you up to speed on the basics of B2B copywriting in just over 90 minutes.
The Principles of B2B Copywriting series is designed to give you the basic foundation you’ll need to make the most out of this Workshop.
You’ll learn the underlying principles of good B2B copy from Steve Slaunwhite, including …
- A basic understanding of what B2B is all about …
- Where you — the very important B2B copywriter — fit into the long, eventful sales cycle …
- Examples of typical B2B marketing pieces …
- The 3 ways the business buyer’s mindset is different, and how to appeal to their “split personality” in your writing. (Do this, and you’ll look like a pro from the get-go!)
- Basic B2B writing techniques — the foundation of solid copywriting, including the twin pillars of B2B persuasion to always keep in mind, no matter what type of project you’re working on …
- How to write the way business buyers talk — and why this conversational approach is good news for you …
- The most important and most common types of copywriting projects, where they land in the sales cycle, and the most lucrative projects that will also help your client make more sales …
- And MUCH more …
Whether you’re just starting out or want a quick refresher, this 3-part webinar series is an excellent foundation for good B2B copy. It’ll get you up to speed quickly so you can get the most out of the rest of your Workshop experience.
Plus, it means you can get started on your B2B “fast track” adventure right away … and get a head start on building up the skills you need.
Steve’s Principles of B2B Copywriting normally sells for $500 …
But, if you’re one of the 125 lucky (and fast) enough to be a part of this exclusive B2B Workshop, you won’t pay another dime for it.
It’s yours to have and keep for FREE, forever.
This instant bonus is worth $500 on its own.
Now, you’re probably wondering by now how much this hands-on Workshop is going to cost.
As you know, professional one-on-one training does not come cheap.
It’s not uncommon for professionals to charge up to $2,000 per hour to be in a room with them, just to pick their brains.
In fact, I asked each of the experts what it would cost to get just two hours of hands-on training with them, exactly like the sessions you’re going to get.
Not surprisingly, 7 of the 8 said they don’t offer it because of their busy schedules … but if they did …
Bob Bly said he’d charge $1,000 for two hours …
Casey Hibbard said $800 …
Casey Demchak and Melanie Rembrandt said $500 …
Gordon Graham and Michael Katz were both at $1,000 …
Ed Gandia regularly charges $4,000 for what you’ll learn …
Steve Slaunwhite said $1,500 …
Add them all up and it’s over $10,000!
And remember, that’s just for their time …
As a Participant in the 4 Weeks To B2B Pro Virtual Workshop, You’ll Get Structured, Hands-On Training in Each of the Most Lucrative and Crucial Projects in B2B
Plus, you’re going to get in-depth guidance on landing clients …
The chance to ask all the questions you have throughout the whole event …
The opportunity to have your work reviewed by working writers …
AND Steve’s Principles of B2B Copywriting (a $500 value on its own … )
So, what is your investment for this exclusive Workshop?
Well, it won’t be the $10,000 these writers would normally charge for their time …
Nor will it be the $5,000 professional training events like this regularly cost writers like you … writers who are serious about getting the laser-focused training that can result in a six-figure freelance income.
(That’s not even mentioning the thousands you’ll save on airfare, room and board, and restaurant meals by attending virtually … )
In fact, the full price for the entire Workshop — with the full Bonus Week on business building … the generous bonuses … and professional feedback on as many of the exercises as you like …
Is only $3,495.
BUT —
If you’re on board … and you know you want LIVE guidance through launching your B2B copywriting career …
And you can see the value in having 8 of the most respected and recognized Master Copywriters in the industry with you, teaching you their very best techniques …
Then I don’t want you to hesitate — especially over the price.
That’s why, if you register right now, I’m going to knock a full $1,000 clean off the top …
And your investment today is only $2,495 … but only if you register by Friday, July 10th.
By the way, this type of live Workshop experience has been in demand for so long, I really doubt we’ll make it to July 10th without selling every one of the 125 seats.
So if you want in … now is your chance.

P.S. There’s one more thing I forgot to mention …
Referrals.
The Master Copywriters I’ve introduced you to have ALL been known to hire copywriters whom they have personally trained when they have too much work coming in the door. (Which, thanks to their expert status, is always!)
And I’ve challenged each expert to bring an in-depth training experience that would make them feel comfortable either outsourcing work to you or referring their top-notch clients to you.
I’m currently planning to give each speaker a directory of the 4 Weeks to B2B Pro Virtual Workshop attendees … and if you’d like, I’d be happy to put your name in it.
After we’ve seen samples of your work, simply let me know you’re interested in being on the referrals list and it’s a done deal.
Of course, I can’t promise they’ll send you work — that’s up to them. But getting your name in front of the top copywriters in the industry, knowing they have projects up to their ears, is a pretty great spot to be in!
But, you have to attend the Workshop in order to be on the referrals list.
