Nothing You Write Will Ever Be Good Enough
Talk Copy to Me | Content + Copywriting Podcast
06/27/23 • 22 min
Episode 079.
Have you ever struggled with perfectionism? How about as it relates to the website copy and marketing content you create? Maybe you find yourself constantly editing and rewriting, making it impossible to finish a piece, or worse, you don’t start writing at all and just stare at a blank page beating yourself up about it. Perfectionism in writing is something that all writers struggle with, and if I’m going to be honest with you, it’s a constant struggle...not something that happens from time to time.
Which is why it’s so difficult for non-writers to craft “perfect” copy.
On this episode of the Talk Copy to Me podcast, I’m talking perfectionism in writing and why nothing you write will ever be good enough. I’ll cover the three different stages of the writing process and why you should embrace each one for what it is and not try to do them all at once. By the end of this episode, you’ll learn three main takeaways: why perfectionism is detrimental to your writing, how to accept imperfection, and how to recognize and embrace the quality content you do create.

035. What Goes in a Welcome Series with Liz Wilcox
Talk Copy to Me | Content + Copywriting Podcast
10/25/22 • 48 min
Yes! You're growing your email list. I hope you feel so proud of your efforts! 🎉
But now what?
Well, simple. You need a series of emails to introduce yourself to your new subscribers and set the groundwork about what they can expect from you. But, knowing what goes into a welcome email sequence and actually creating one are two completely different things.
I called in Liz Wilcox, the "Fresh Princess of Email" to chat about all things related to welcome email sequences. In this episode, she provides some concrete and clear suggestions on how to write (or edit) your welcome email sequence in a way that feels genuine, creates the opportunity to build relationships with your readers, and also convert them into potential customers.
This ended up being one of my most favorite interviews so far on the show, and I certainly think you're going to love it too.

In other words, she now teaches online entrepreneurs to simplify the whole “email marketing thing” and finally master their sales in a way that leverages their personality, vision, and values.
She’s best known for her 1800+ users membership, 20-Minute Newsletter technique, and the Email Staircase framework she’s taught to tens of thousands of creatives, freelancers, ecommerce shop owners, and small businesses across the globe.

Email is emotional. Liz Wilcox said it in our episode on welcome sequences, and Kyla Roma is echoing it here today during our conversation on sales email strategy.

If feeling overwhelmed and overemotional about your sales emails is something you've experienced, this episode on being strategic with sales emails is one you won't want to miss.

The Low Down on Marketing Quiz Creation with Jackie Aguglia
Talk Copy to Me | Content + Copywriting Podcast
10/07/22 • 46 min
Quick: While you have the chance, join Interact's FREE Quiz Mastermind, happening from October 11-13!
Let me ask you a question for a moment. Have you ever taken a personality quiz? Do you remember the days of grabbing your monthly Cosmo subscription from the mailbox and scanning through to find out what type of "insert personality type" you were.
Or, maybe your last quiz wasn't that long ago. Maybe you find yourself scrolling through the popular Buzzfeed quizzes or taking the Myers Briggs or Enneagram to find out more about who you are and how you operate so you can step into your strengths and become aware of what might be considered weaknesses.
Enter quizzes for business: the marketing tool you (maybe) didn't know you needed.
Quiz creation is a great idea for almost any business. I've written quizzes for service providers and B2B SaaS companies. The quizzes can be silly and fun or serious and educational.
And, if interested in list building quizzes can be a lot easier way to get new leads on. your list than offering other lead magnets that may collect dust immediately in their inboxes.
Today, I'm excited to talk with Jackie Aguglia from TryInteract, one of the leading quiz creation companies...and the one I actually use in my business and recommend to my clients, all about quiz creation and how quizzes can fit into your marketing funnel.
Meet our guest expert:
I'm Jackie 👋 Quiz coach at interact and community manager of the quiz collective by interact. Interact's mission is to empower digital entrepreneurs, creators, and brands to grow their businesses through empathetic listening, deeper understanding, and true connection... at a human level.
In the “real world” you get to know your prospects personally; you can ask them questions and develop true empathy towards their needs and aspirations making it way easier to actually help them reach their goals.
An Interact quiz helps you do the same thing. And the connection, understanding, and personalized touch you create with your quiz will help you stand out in your industry – so you can attract more leads with less effort, increase your sales, and have a bigger impact.

Here's an incredible quiz course if you're planning on DIY-ing your quiz creation
