How do you find a good copywriter?

2 points| rhaphazard | 14 years ago | reply

My dad's business is having a hard time finding a good copywriter. We might hire a freelancer for some urgent work, but since the business revolves around a somewhat monolithic system, the time/resources it would take to train him/her would probably be better spent on a full time employee.

Any advice on how/where to find a good copywriter?

If you're open to doing it in-house, you could get someone to train themselves using this course: http://www.appsumo.com/kopywriting-kourse-eg/?rf=srch

Then you may be able to do so yourself. It's only $69 to take the course.

Thanks for the link. I'm not a frequent user of Appsumo. How long do deals like this last? Do you have to be logged in to take the course: as in, can only the purchaser take the course?
