Okay, I'm now back on BASE for at least several months. I'm not planning on a set duration of usage because life is too dynamic right now and anything can change.
At least 1 - 2 months BASE refresher should be fine. I believe my meditation helps to greatly reduce any resistance i might feel, and so far in 10+ hours of listening it's felt pretty nice.
My current work schedule revolves around managing the email campaigns of a few clients (i write their emails) and working on a small sales letter project for the next few weeks.
I also hand write at least one new sales advert per day, hopefully continuing that daily exercise for the rest of the year since it's good practice.
So far in copywriting I've only had a few really crap clients, but they've been easy to let go. As long as i attract in solid clients, things are alright overall.
My main goal though, has been to secure a partnership where i just do the email and marketing for a business for a fixed % of profit. This way things can scale.
As soon as i had this idea, i came across a handful of copywriters who have this exact same setup to the tune of $12 - 150k a year. Very wide distribution of income levels there, but each had their own target and goals to achieve. So i know it's doable, especially if my talent align well with my partner.
I also have one longer term business development cooking, but it is only a vision so far, and i have no idea how the pieces will come together. It will take at least the remainder of the year to sort out, then i have to find the right people for a very particular team. Not easy at all to find people like this, so i have to give it time.
For now, i have decent business and growth is needed and that is what I'm aiming for.
My traffic biz is passively working in the background and still makes about $3 - 5k a month profit.
It's fine for the money but i just can't see myself doing that long term.
I do foresee having maybe two primary businesses going forward: the new unnamed one, and my copy biz / possibly partnership.
This feels well enough to get me into the high 6 and 7 figure brackets eventually, so its just about timing and working my ass off...as ever.
