Great copywriting takes years of practice.

As a freelance copywriter, I used to think the only way I could practice copywriting was by working with clients. I soon discovered that if you only practice with clients, it will take you a long time to improve your copywriting.

Instead, I started doing 7 simple things every day to help me improve my copywriting.

1. Journal every day for 20 minutes

Journaling is a great way to express yourself.

You not only gain clarity from journaling, but you also become a better writer and copywriter.

When you journal, practice these copywriting techniques:

  • Short paragraphs
  • Informal words
  • Clarity of sentences
  • Simple words

2. Write an email to yourself

You don’t always have to cold email others to get better at email copywriting.

Try writing an email to yourself. Read it aloud. Sell yourself an idea with an email that you wrote.
