Copy Writer Position

"We’re looking for a ‘Wordsmither’ That Can Make the Cash Register Ring Writing Copy for Sales Letters, Sales Videos, Landing Pages, Emails and Ads."

From The Desk Of Eric Dahl -Eugene, Oregon Here's What I'm Looking For and Not...

You must have experience writing winning copy resulting in more clicks, leads and sales. You’ll have various types of writing assignments so you must be flexible.

Personally, I’m under a lot of pressure to make the cash register ring for our clients and I need someone that can rise to the occasion and constantly push the envelope with copy that produces cash money.

Speed is very important to me. If you’re a slow worker or a slow implementer or a slow learner – we simply won’t be a good fit.

Lastly, I expect you to have a can do attitude. I can’t stand complainers or those that talk a good game but nothing ever gets done. What I really want is someone who lets their work do the talking for them.

Some typical tasks you might do in a day (note: you don’t need to know how to do all of these just yet, but must be willing to learn)...

...What You'll Be Doing:

  • Write a special report or blog post that builds to a call to action
  • Interview clients to help you derive the necessary knowledge to write their winning copy
  • Write emails that get clicks and ultimately extracts more revenue from subscribers
  • Write sales letters or sales videos that influence prospects to take action
  • Write a landing page that influences prospects to request a special report or other type of lead attractor
  • Write direct mail pieces for high-converting, high profit, direct response marketing campaigns
  • Write video scripts for various parts of the marketing funnel and campaigns
  • … and much, much more. No two days will ever be the same.

Required Skills:

  • Basic wordpress skills are necessary
  • You must be able to work well as a team
  • Sales copy skills
  • You need to have a strong eye for attention to detail (this is really important)
  • Ability to multi-task on multiple projects at once
  • Organized and detailed oriented
  • Excellent written skills
  • Good interpersonal skills
  • Willingness to work with and help our team members

You need to be a hardworking, self-starter, who is coachable, dependable, determined, driven, accountable, tech savvy, and naturally obsessed with details.

Additional Requirements:

# 1

Intermediate knowledge of internet marketing, tracking, conversions, sales funnels, sales copy, upsells, etc.

# 2

Intermediate knowledge of some of the tools we use… like WordPress, Optimize Press, Infusionsoft

# 3

Intermediate knowledge of ad creation, ad placement and ad management (i.e. banners, ppc, solo ads, etc).

Optional Skills (Not required, but a plus):

  • Basic HTML / coding ability
  • Photoshop
  • A great eye for design

Compensation and Getting Paid:

Right now work is assigned on a per project basis and as soon as part-time or full-time work is available (provided you’ve worked well with us so far) you’ll be among the first people we contact. Rates average out to $25 an hour starting out. If you’re starting out with fewer skills and learning as you go, compensation is going to be lower. The right person for this role will also deeply value the learning experience.

How to Apply For This Position:

If you’re interested in the position, please write a landing page, sales letter and an email promoting a made up product or service.

Feel free to be as creative as possible in your copy (I personally read every single one of these). Save your copy in a dropbox folder and share the link.
