TCC Podcast #85: Running a healthy copywriting business with Misty Mozejko - a podcast by Kira Hug and Rob Marsh

Health and Fitness copywriter, Misty Mozejko joins Kira and Rob for the 85th episode of The Copywriter Club Podcast. We asked her all kinds of questions about her fitness and copywriting business—and got a lot of great advice to apply to our own businesses. We even talked about nipple tassels, which is new ground for us (though not for Misty). Here’s what else we talked about:

•  how she got started running her own businesses and how that led to copywriting•  how she found a mentor and why she continues to look for them
•  what she did to lose 120 pounds (and how long it took)•  the business lessons she learned running her own fitness club
•  her diet recommendations for copywriters who need to feed their brains•  the system she has developed in her business to help her succeed
•  the moment she realized she was good at copywriting•  what she’s done to improve her own writing (this is a great tip)
•  her advice on how to choose clients•  why she emails her list every day (and the impact it has)
•  where the ideas for her emails come from•  how she captures the voice of her clients
•  how she manages two businesses, being a mom, and staying healthy•  the mistakes she’s made (and why she tries to stay in her lane)
•  what she’s learned about hiring people to help her•  how she communicates with her team (and the tool she uses)
•  what she does to improve her writing and business skills•  the words she uses to push back on her clients

Finally, Misty pulled out her crystal ball to tell us where she sees copywriting going in the future. She’s probably not wrong. To hear it all, click the play button below, or scroll down for a full transcript.

Full Transcript: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 85 as we talk with copywriter and business owner Misty Mozejko about succeeding as a copywriter while running a whole other business; how she stays sane balancing two businesses while being a mom; her best fitness and nutrition advice; and what she does to stand out as a copywriter in a crowded field.Rob: Hey Misty.

Kira: Welcome, Misty.Misty: Well, thank you very much for having me; this is an honor!

Kira: It’s great to have you hear. I think a great place to start is with your story, and how you ended up running multiple businesses.Misty: Uhhhm, yeah; you said ‘sane’? You mentioned something about my sanity in the intro, and I think we should address that, because there’s definitely none of that happened in the past. I’m not sane at all, so let’s just clear that up right now.
