You’ve probably heard of business coaches, financial coaches, life coaches, and even TikTok coaches, and there’s a chance you’ve considered hiring one or joining one of their programs before.
As a business owner, there are ENDLESS options of people to learn from, and honestly, that can be a blessing and a curse.
On one side, you’re thankful that there are tons of resources out there to help you with specific needs for your business, but on the other side, you might be left wondering, WHO is the right fit for me?
How do I know who I need to hire and learn from? How do I know which program or course will serve me best?
And I get it – this can be super confusing to figure out, and I’ve definitely experienced this myself.
The reason this happens is because many of these coaches have a lot of things in common and teach very similar things.
For example, most business coaches work to help you improve professionally and achieve your business goals through guidance, support, and expertise.
There are tons of them out there, so it really just comes down to who YOU resonate with the most.

In that case, you might consider working with a copy coach so you can focus on this one part of your business.
And yes… copy coaches exist. In fact, I’m one of them. 😏
If you’re unfamiliar with what a copy coach is, let me explain!
A copy coach is someone who specializes in helping business owners improve their writing skills for marketing purposes.
“Copy” refers to any words you use in marketing – whether it’s on your website, in your emails, on social media, or any other promotional content – aimed to speak to your ideal audience and move them into further action.
And no, that “further action” doesn’t always mean buying something from you!
It can mean signing up for your email list, downloading a freebie, reading a blog post, etc.
When you choose to work with a copy coach, you can expect to focus on things like:
With those things in mind, here are some signs that YOU might need a copy coach in your business. ⬇️
As a creative business owner, have you ever found yourself stuck in a cycle of serving less-than-ideal clients who don’t light you up?

I hear you, but I’m here to say… it’s NOT your fault and you CAN fix it!
If you:
✔️want to stop relying on your portfolio to convey your impact and instead start connecting with your ideal client through words
