TCC Podcast #105: Going from copywriter to consultant with Sarah Grear - a podcast by Kira Hug and Rob Marsh

Copywriter Sarah Grear is back for a second appearance on The Copywriter Club Podcast. Kira and Rob wanted to learn more about how she is shifting to offer more consulting in addition to copywriting, the tools she uses to land clients and how she structures her business so she gets paid even while on vacation. It this episode (#105 for those who are keeping score) we talked all about:

•  how she made six figures last year (and took four months off)

•  what Sarah’s accomplished since we last talked with her

•  what she does to help her clients have massively successful launches

•  the “gift” she gives her clients that closes the deal

•  what it takes to create a launch map and feel confident about sharing with her clients

•  the five phases of a launch plan

•  the ins and outs of a successful “launch debrief” and how she sells the next project

•  how she continues to get herself on stage (and what she teaches)

•  why she publicly celebrates every win today

•  the strategies Sarah uses to create more freedom in her personal life

•  how you can leverage your strengths to add consulting to your copy business

•  her “mindset” advice for copywriters who want to up-level to consultant

Rob:   What if you could hang out with seriously talented copywriters and other experts, ask them about their successes and failures, their work processes and their habits, then steal an idea or two to inspire your own work? That's what Kira and I do every week at The Copywriter Club Podcast.



Kira:   You're invited to join the Club for Episode 105 as we chat for a second time with freelance copywriter, Sarah Grier, about what it takes to grow a copywriting business past six figures, her recipe for launch success, why she books two projects at a time and spreads payments over six months, and how to add consulting to the services you offer your clients.



Hey, Sarah. Welcome back.



Rob:   Hey Sarah.



Sarah:  Hey, thanks for having me. It's so fun. I can't believe you guys have done 106 interviews. And you're still standing.



Rob:   Barely. We're actually ... I think we're both sitting right now.
